I come back to rewatch this match often, seeing my favorite player and inspiration win her first grand slam, she had so many doubters but she’s one of the most successful tennis players and was #1 for two years straight, not many can say that ❤
Wozniacki is now a validated tennis champion! 27 time WTA titlist, 2017 WTA Finals Champion and now the 2018 Australian Open Champion!!! What a champion she is! I feel so much happiness seing her win this trophy!
Those final two points are definition Wozniacki: so much effort, athleticism and talent to grind out points. She turns defense into offense so well and is the best at getting extra balls back and forcing the error. So proud of her!
For those who are judging and only watched the highlights, both of them played INCREDIBLE and showed so much heart. Nobody needs a coaching change or sucks or whatever, they did amazing.
The serving was pitiful. So bad, that both players were disadvantaged when they served. Frustrating to watch. Tennis should not be played at elite level like this. Serena would have killed em and I’m not one of her fans.
@@Picklejam08 This is a very, very stupid comment. Serena is the GOAT. She can destroy almost everyone's serve. However, Kerber still beat her while her serve is worse than these two. One can be weak in aspect and make up for it from other parts of her game.
@@Picklejam08 Plus, Wozniacki actually has the best serve among all the top defensive players, maybe ever. You obviously don't know what you're talking about.
I am coming back after Woziniacki declared her retirement after AO 2020. This is how I am gonna remember you. I was more for Halep but Woziniacki deserved that grand slam title for sure. Some people just don't understand that we need more variety for tennis somehow. And there is a reason why she could spend so many weeks on world no.1 while so many great players involve. You are a nice champion, Caroline! Congrats.
Weakest era of tennis for the no1 thing. I said she'd never win a grand slam I guess I was proved Wrong. I'll eat my words but I mean really probably the worst grand slam ever, I could maybe have won it
I still remember this match, I was soooo happy that Caroline finally got her GS title after a decade. She reached numerous Grand Slam finals, and won so many titles and was #1 for a long time but she always crumbled under pressure and was constantly criticised for her defensive playstyle.
Short highlights but what match and what and effort from both ! Better final of GS than almost all of last season. Halep played good and her time will come if she just improves a little bit but finally Wozniacki won a GS ! So well deserved, so well fought. No more Slamless N°1, haters now you see. People should not judge other people. Very happy, what a match.
I'm for Simona. It's sad to see her going through tough matches like Davis and Kerber and still can't win a Grand Slam title. However, it's still great to see Caroline lifting the trophy after waiting so many years. The experience of Singapore helps her a lot. Congrats Wozniacki and hope to see Simona winning soon!
I knew you could do it, Caroline. I knew it. People were dogging on you ever since you dropped out of number 1, but I knew you weren't done yet and that persistence has paid off. You'll always be my favorite player on the WTA.
OK @@allendims8560 - we understand you don't like her and call her overrated despite the statistics ought to tell you something else. But to call her the other things is an evidence that you Mr Dims is most definitely NOT a Gentleman
@@allendims8560 She's NOT overrated. Watch her on tour matches, she's EXCELLENT. She just always crumbled under pressure during Grand Slams in comparison. Also people constantly criticise her for being a retriever rather than an offensive baseliner, how tf is she overrated???
J Jxs soooo basically your calling Serena a MAN because of her natural body something she can’t help🤔... and then to top it off your saying the Sharapova used peds to win her slams even though the ITF & Doctors proved and confirmed that she medicine that Sharapova was taking at the time had absolutely no effect of her strength etc. Sounds like to me you need to stop being a follower and get your head your ass and look up the facts💯! Say what you want but yes Caroline has a great career but getting one slam doesn’t make you a legend and you know it!
Tears of Joy! ❤. So happy she finally got something she deserved and back to number 1. No matter what happens for the rest of the season for her (which I don't want nothing bad lol!) 2018 is her year! Congratulations to the Dane!
I mean i am not sexist or anything. If you are expecting federer nadal level of tennis from women's singles final.. I got nothing much to say. You can't really compare them. It's like a different sport.
sj y I know this is 4 month old, but completely disagree. I enjoy watching women's tennis just as much as men's (more actually), I don't see that big of a difference besides them hitting harder. And those best of 5 set matches can be too long. Just wanted to throw a different opinion out there, you're entitled to yours.
Kelly Patterson its cuz wozniacki’s strokes doesnt quite look like the pros. she cud fit in with the college level or amateur club ladies as far as the technique esp. with her forehand n serves. n her winners are not that breathtaking to the eyes like most pros like kvitova serena ivanovic etcs bullet shots.
I’m sure all the idiots complaining about two finalists without grand slam titles is just such a women’s tennis paradox would have no problems watching Cilic-Nishikori or Gaudio-Coria or Nadal-Puerta. Also to people calling Carolina a pusher, you have no right to comment since you obviously didn’t watch the match. Caroline Wozniacki deserved this grand slam title, period!
well to be fair guadio and coria comepletely stomped all competition in that 2004 RG. Nishikori, Cilic and Puerta are legit. Only people I didn't see in a final are for example raonic and anderson mainly since they're boring to watch and had no chance.
So happy for Caroline, she fulfilled her dream to win a grand slam and be the number one wta player in the world. Congratulations to her dad for supporting her dream and making it happen.
I feel so bad for Simona, she's put through the ringer against Davis and then Kerber, not to mention the rest of the matches she had to win to get to this stage - only to end up empty-handed a third time. I just hope she can break through at the French this year #nevergiveup #neverbegameover #gameon
I can't stand Halep, I always root for her opponent, except when she plays the Williams sisters. The Halep groan on every shot is the most annoying in tennis.
In the end her defense, backhand and all court presence won her the GS. I remember crying when watching her finally win her GS. A fan since 2010 and still a fan until now.
Wozniacki is my favourite tennis player on the wta tour. She often had some struggles and was often not able to win bigger tournaments. But having followed her career from start and having seen all her struggles and her neverending will to win, I fell down and cried when she finally was able to close this circle.
Though I was not supporting anyone in particular it was heartbreaking seeing Simona like that. she fought till the end. Caroline was superb mentally. she fought back at points which were clearly going halep's way. I guess at the end that makes a Champion.the post match ceremony was so nice with the song and her big smile 😂 congrats to her and all her fans 👍👍..
This was a final for the books by both players!!! So gritty by both... it had everything; long lasting, exitement to the last moment, incredible rallies, the perfect rivalry between no. 1 and 2 in the world at the time, both awaiting their first slam after a couple of finals and between two players who is often compared as to whom's the greatest. Both the best movers and counter pushers out there. They're close in the all time-rankings both concerning earnings, longest reigning no. 1, almost same age, etc. etc. Fantastic final, often finals are so nervous and error prone, but these two played their hearts out 'till the very last point!!! This final had no loser.
These are two of the hardest working players ever. They fought for years to get their first slam titles. I’m glad Caroline won this and even more glad that Simona won her first slam soon after.
People need to STOP dissing Women's tennis.. Did you even watch this tournament, these women put so much work into their games, and just because it isn't the game you think they should play, you degrade them for it. Both Wozniacki and Halep played an amazing tournament, in the end Wozniacki was stronger and I'm so happy and proud she won and grand slam because she deserves it!!! It's not a disgrace to run down every ball and retrieve well, would you rather them just let it go? And not try? These women are phenomenal athletes bottom line.
It's funny to see hateful comments towarded Woz. She just played smartly by creating long rallies since she knew that Halep's stamina was limited that time. I felt bad for Halep but believed that she will win one someday
What a fairy tale ending that Caroline created for herself! She’s worked so hard and accomplished so much during her career, but never quiet made it over the biggest hurdle. This is so rare to see on tour as many of our favorites don’t end up winning a slam, and to do it in the twilight of her career is so gratifying to see. This is definitely a win for grinders out on the court 🎾
Wow this year 2018 at both the Australian and French Open both the finalists are counter puncher players, probably the big hitters will step up at Wimbledon. Either way I'm super happy that Simona Halep finally win a Slam at Paris after her third final loss. We have three first time slam winners straight now since the US Open. Are we waiting for a new first timer at Wimbledon this year?
You can see this on extended highlights (whole match is on here too I believe) what they cut out is after the insane rally on the penultimate point Simona lets out a smile like "yeah that was a great point", even though she lost it and would lose the match on the very next point.
The amazing thing is Caroline, who played fantastic, both did, was not supposed to be here. She was down 5-1 in the third set against Fett. She did not win that one because she played great but because Fett produced the most mind boggling melt down in the history of tennis. That said Caroline played the best tennis of her life in these finals, the only way she could win against Simona, who is playing the best tennis of her life.
Well they got a marquee match that lived up to expectations. There are these wildcards out there like Karlovic (who somehow didn't end Murray on his Wimbledon run) who can be lethal every now and then. I don't know what you are suggesting. I'm not suggesting anything.
I am not suggesting anything either. Just laying out the facts. She was down 5-1 and the way Fett played until then there was no way she could have won. It took a major meltdown from Fett for Caroline to be in the finals. Such is life. Other than that, they get paid millions to play ball, I have to pay to watch. Such is the system.
Welp,.. halep blew it again.. but let this match be a lesson for her, to not rely on her foot speed and athleticism all the time.. she is actually capable of flattening out shots, being more aggressive and dictating play and i think she should incorporate to this style of play a little bit more because she isn't getting any younger and it's going to be more physically demanding on her body if she goes on the defensive all the time.. that being said, congrats to Wozniacki!! finally she shut all the haters down who said she will never win a grand slam lol
A variety of game in WTA. An extraordinary one! These 2 would hitting a ball back all day long. Precision, balance, anticipation & physical fitness are a fundamental requirement for this ball game. The level in them goes beyond those of many others. Nearly machine-like .. with emotion! Coco & Iga show this kind of skill now.
Jonathan Gianguzzo yup, i feel like simona wanted to win the french open more than any slams...hopefully it will be third time lucky for her this year at the RG
Most people (myself included) had given up any hope that she would end up winning a GS and would be remembred mostly as the world nr 1 who couldn't win the big titles. She deserves alot of credit for overcoming all of that and finally winning one.
Halep has changed a lot. She is tougher now and an overall better player by a mile than when she lost that final to Serena (who can just serve aces and win anything even if she is horrible in all other aspects on that week) and it was heartbreaking because she was playing really well throughout that tournament. With Simona as far as working harder and tinkering things like everyone is suggesting, I like to think she has reached the absolute limit of human physical exertion that is possible without using PEDs or killing yourself. And if her game lacks anything, it's what she cannot get. For example she cannot get taller so that she can hit more dangerous and faster first serves to win more points off it like Wozniacki did the entire way in this tournament. Wozniacki was actually serving quite well throughout. I feel like that is not said enough. I love Simona to death, I don't think there is a player I am rooting for more to win a Slam especially after losing this one, but my pragmatism makes me think she will have to be really lucky like a lot of players before her who won slams have been, to win a Grand Slam herself. Like I think Wozniacki was in this one. She has to get a favorable draw, avoid injuries, hope her would-be kryptonite opponents get eliminated in the other side of the draw, etc. Just everything has to be perfect. Because so far, there is always one thing that will work against her. It's almost unfair.
A battle of the retrievers this was and Caro proved more resilient. Halep was excellent too, hope she wins a GS in the future. I do not bother with people who believe retrievers shouldn't play personally so this was very entertaining to watch.
toxicfievre They aren't. All they were doing is hit right and hit left. Where is the Art here. The ball was begging for a volley, a drop shot or someone going to the net and maybe someone taking it early.
You shouldn't expect retrievers to play at the net, I don't so I got what I expected. Rounded players are very entertaining but people here are acting as if this was a boring match and to me it wasn't. It was incredible to see such determination from both sides.

A variety of game in WTA. An extraordinary one! These 2 would hitting a ball back all day long. Precision, balance, anticipation & physical fitness are a fundamental requirement for this ball game. The level in them goes beyond those of many others. Nearly machine-like .. with emotion! Coco & Iga show this kind of skill now.
Great game- both players played under horrible heat. Congrats to Caroline and great job to Simona.
This is what a dream come true looks like ❤️
Congratulations Caroline Wozniaki! You are a great player with a beautiful heart and soul.
so happy for you Caroline you made it. l like you cause you are Serena's friend.
Amazing hitting!!!!
What a match, booth are very good
The highlights are a bit misleading... Halep did bounce back in 3rd from 02 to 42 if i m not mistaken but none of that is covered
I’m here after she just announced her return to the tour 🎉🎉🎉
Caro is the queen of deffense and backhand
Finally...wocniaki 1st slam!!! Congratulations!
I'm happy for Caroline, but my heart was with Simona. The French Open should be all hers.
Jonathan Gianguzzo yup, i feel like simona wanted to win the french open more than any slams...hopefully it will be third time lucky for her this year at the RG
Who came back to this video after Woz announced her return !? 🙋♂
Wow what happen between 0-2 to 4-5 on third set... Btw congratulations caro! Finally not a slamless world no 1
I m still waiting for Svitolina s first GS but Caroline played so well this tournament
sebastian pizano She hasn't got the mental toughness to do that, yet....
Santy Tenis M yes you are right but i hope she can solve it
Caroline and Simone won their first GS in 2018. Sad that Caroline has retired.
Sweeeeett Caroline... pa pa paaaa.. Good times never seemed so good..
Most people (myself included) had given up any hope that she would end up winning a GS and would be remembred mostly as the world nr 1 who couldn't win the big titles. She deserves alot of credit for overcoming all of that and finally winning one.
One of the greatest women tennis matches of all time
...not even close, but it was entertaining.
Halep has changed a lot. She is tougher now and an overall better player by a mile than when she lost that final to Serena (who can just serve aces and win anything even if she is horrible in all other aspects on that week) and it was heartbreaking because she was playing really well throughout that tournament. With Simona as far as working harder and tinkering things like everyone is suggesting, I like to think she has reached the absolute limit of human physical exertion that is possible without using PEDs or killing yourself. And if her game lacks anything, it's what she cannot get. For example she cannot get taller so that she can hit more dangerous and faster first serves to win more points off it like Wozniacki did the entire way in this tournament. Wozniacki was actually serving quite well throughout. I feel like that is not said enough.
I love Simona to death, I don't think there is a player I am rooting for more to win a Slam especially after losing this one, but my pragmatism makes me think she will have to be really lucky like a lot of players before her who won slams have been, to win a Grand Slam herself. Like I think Wozniacki was in this one. She has to get a favorable draw, avoid injuries, hope her would-be kryptonite opponents get eliminated in the other side of the draw, etc. Just everything has to be perfect. Because so far, there is always one thing that will work against her. It's almost unfair.
Caroline is the best defensive player with a good offense
Finally! This is too long overdue. She earns it this time!
A battle of the retrievers this was and Caro proved more resilient. Halep was excellent too, hope she wins a GS in the future. I do not bother with people who believe retrievers shouldn't play personally so this was very entertaining to watch.
i know! look what happened when keys (power player) made it to the final..was over in under an hour..to me the defensive players are so fun to watch.
toxicfievre They aren't. All they were doing is hit right and hit left. Where is the Art here. The ball was begging for a volley, a drop shot or someone going to the net and maybe someone taking it early.
Rushil Rai .just because you dont see the art, does not mean it is not there. ;)
its their game style to stay at the baseline..neither one of them made it to the final coming in hitting volleys.why would they start now?
You shouldn't expect retrievers to play at the net, I don't so I got what I expected. Rounded players are very entertaining but people here are acting as if this was a boring match and to me it wasn't. It was incredible to see such determination from both sides.
