Nerves of steel from Parks. She was brilliant under pressure. Amazing final and high level of tennis by both players. Both serving lights out!
Alycia is amazing.... 15 Aces is insane.....she's got a new fan here... congratulations to her. Can't wait to see more wins from her
yes sh is good
Not just a big serve but one of the most skillful vollyers on tour! She's not afraid to come forward. A lost and refreshing art form!!!
What's up with her now, not so good currently?
@@blazzunkoplaying stupid
what a show of mental strenght from Parks in that 2nd set to save crucial moments with powerful serves includind 2nd serve aces
Parks conquered the trifecta of her opponent, the coach, and the hostile home crowd. I was so convinced she would win that I bet on it. And I very rarely bet. Thanks, Alycia. Keep pushing onwards and upwards.
That was hardly a hostile crowd. Sometimes we imagine what we want to see.
What did the coach do?
@@zweigackroyd7301 i disagree. when the crowd starts to cheering EVERy time you fault, especially on your second serve its going too far. The umpire had to take a minute to tell the crowd to be quiet during Parks serve towards the end of the match. The French are the rudest crowd and its shown time and time again.
@@zweigackroyd7301 maybe they watched the full match, from the highlights the crowd are barely even backing up garcia the way they should…it should be like davis cup
@@zweigackroyd7301 Did you watch the whole match? Because that's not something you can pick up on highlights only. The crowd was hostile especially towards the end.
Wow! Congratulations to Alycia Parks. Hopefully this is the start of a special career for this talented, young lady.
A star is born ❤❤❤
Say it louder
So so impressive with Alycia. Her serve her strokes her power wow! Interesting to note - Serena Williams won her 1st WTA in France defeating frenchwoman Amelie Mauresmo, 24 yrs later Alycia wins her 1st in France against a French opponent!
Her serve has fire to it. I noticed that on the return various times during this match, she put too much kick on it, which resulted in the ball going long. What I didn't know and discovered is that she keeps her box empty. That was a first for me to see, but I can see she wants to keep her own focus and pep talk herself back in the match vice versus having to look over at the box to get that motivation. Seems like it worked.
I don't think this is Park's first. She won 2 WTA single events last year...
Yes, I remember that, I believe it was the Open Gaz de Suez in Paris. On that day I believe Venus won her 1st title at the IGA Cup in Oklahoma City over Monica Seles or Brenda Schultz McCarthy.
@@nsimageorge this is her first singles title on the WTA Tour. I believe you're referring to the two Challenger events she won two months ago.
U sure?
What a talent Alycia parks is! Future top 20 player
Future Grand Slam champion
alycia’s serve is *TERRIFYING* - she’s going to be something great.
Congrats Alycia!
Absolutely love her game: huge serve, great forehand and backhand, very composed and most importantly for me AMAZING NET GAME!
Not something you see that often in the WTA now days.
She will achieve great things in the future 😊😊
she lost in the qualies at the AO qualies. now she doesn't need to qualify..😅
Mama who told you that she is not qualify in big tournaments?
She didn't get a wild card because she was not in the top 100. Now she is already in top 50 and she will play any tournaments.
@@japhethrok3514I that's what she meant lol
Hahaha yes i see
She really reminds me of a young Venus, the way she moves around the net especially. I can't wait to see what she's going to do!
First serve, second kicking serve, ground strokes off both flanks, great volley, touch, ground coverage, athletic, mentally tough to take on bigger opponent hostile crowd. Total package.
Well
Beating one of the top players on the planet on her home turf. Super impressive. Alicia has officially announced herself to the tour!
Her name since spelled Alycia get it right.
I have a new fave. I just love her. Congratulations Alycia. All you have to do is believe in yourself and she is proof of that. I can’t wait to see what she does next. She has a bright future ahead. You go girl.
I didn’t realize how complete Parks’s game is. Big strokes, big serve, big returns, good footwork, and great volleys. I’m simply impressed. I thought Caroline would have to much power but Alycia matched her on power and finesse. She has my attention!
She’s a great doubles player. That’s where volley skill sets comes to play
she got everything. Im really impressed how she closes in at the net. Smart and powerful
She has all the shots, foot speed and good rally tolerance. Her success is based on her mental now. As chris evert woud say, It's between the ears now.
Well deserved win by Parks...WTA you have to add Parks' aces to the highlights
Nothing can rattle Alycia, you can witness her focus and mental resolve 💪I see her easily challenging the top seeds in any tournament she's in 👍
This was some laughing stock WTA180 tournament. Welcome Alycia to Dubai and Doha.
@@jukkao.parviainen8669 This makes no "real" sense because her opponent was still a top player...and Garcia absolutely wanted to win this in front of her home crowd...apart from that a win over Garcia would be huge at any tournament!
@@jukkao.parviainen8669 I think you'll find it was a WTA 250 !!
@@robertmartin7594 I think Garcia was there only because it was Lyon. But she recovers like other best ones like Iga from these losses…..😉
@@jukkao.parviainen8669 Garcia was literally crying after the match because she is in France as a French player wanting to win in front of her people. that is a lot of motivation. she is the 4th seed that lost to someone outside of the top 50 in the final. that is impressive from Alycia Parks who also beat Sakkari last year. more than 1 top 10 win shows she’s going to be a top player very soon.
Parks is naturally fearless. Even a sneaky player like Garcia unable to rattle her is proof enough of this. May she be destined with good fortune in terms of being injury-free and healthy, so that she may achieve her fullest potential. Congrats, AP!
Sneaky??? Every matches of caroline are either her winning with brilliant tennis or loosing with poor mental strength, there is absolutely nothing sneaky about her game!
@@romainbourgeois5663 Sneaky = clever.
@@simonpegg1196 Garcia's game isn't clever, she just hits the ball really hard.
@@simonpegg1196 Not that clever if she gets her ass whooped in her own backyard !!
@@feri7mble she hits hard, she's able to play well every shot, she often misses her focus (less so in the last 6 months though).
That's all about Garcia... I too found this "sneaky" attribute about her tennis very strange🤔😅
I’m just here for the comments of how they were saying Garcia was going to “ destroy “ parks 🐸 🍵 . We all know how the French crowd can get and I’m glad she showed her mental strength and didn’t let it bother her. She took out some quality opponents this tournament. It’s only up from here. Congrats Parks !
Agree with all you say!
To anyone impartial watching this tournament, Garcia was lucky to even get to this final.
Most comments were saying Caroline would win, but not "destroy." It proves you people are idiots. Liars. Yes, we know crowds Every Where can be mean, but that is happening less and less towards black players and Asians.
I myself am a Caroline fan and stated Parks would not be easy.
@@akubablakka Because you're a halfwit.
@@black.cake1 All dimwits see things that are not there. Caroline at least made the first weekend at the Australian Open, and where was Parks?
Yeah, out in the QUALIFIERS. Grow a brain before making stupid statements.
Impressed since the remarkable Ostrava run. The first player I’ve seen in a while worthy of citing Serena as a touchstone.
Love them both so much: classy players with beautiful games. Have to admit: I was rooting for Garcia to win her home tourney, but all credit to Parks. We will hear and see much more about her going forward.
She’s the real deal, well done! First title of hopefully many more.
Parks is powerful and fearless..Gotta respect.
Love seeing her finish points at the net. Not every point has to be played from the baseline, especially on these faster hard courts.
Am I the only one seeing the second coming of Serena here 👀the power, the athleticism, the intensity, BETTER VOLLEYS!
ME 2 :)
alycia will be top 10 by the end of the year
Damn that's a bold prediction it is possible though but she would have to be absolutely perfect all year, and I love Alycia but just this past year she has found consistency, before it was very hot and cold hopefully she keep it's up she's scheduled to play in a couple days
So happy for Alycia. Well done!
I like her calm celebration at the end. It was very respectful of Alycia.
Absolutely amazing how Alycia played 🎉I’m so glad she took this win , well deserved I hope she will doing great this year to make her Mark congrats ❤
ALYCIA IS BECOMING THE PLAYER I KNEW SHE COULD BE JUST AMAZING
Such a big all-around game and THAT TENACITY!! 🔥🔥🔥
American tennis is looking pretty good on both tours: Parks, Pegula, Gauff, Fritz, Tiafoe, Paul, Shelton, Korda, etc.
Parks kept pointing to her head. It is mental composure at its best! Not to say Garcia didn’t rely on that but all that mattered was a slight edge and Parks showed she has a mind of steel! Phenomenal win whichever way you slice it.
We see you now Parks!! Great kick serve and awesome hustle.
A grand slam champion in making. I have been watching her playing tennis lately. She serves well and her returns are very good as well.
Congrats Alicia!!What a win👏👏👏🔥
She is going be no. 1 soon and grand slams winner , mark my words ..
This is what a final should be, close match till the end. Well done to both
I'm glad Parks is getting the shine and recognition she deserves. Good battle. Good win.
In hostile territory... straight sets vs #5 in the world 🔥
Let's go Alycia!!!! I see you out here playing ya like our countries foremothers and champions!!! Keep going 💪🏾
Spectacular tennis player, so much energy 🇺🇸🇺🇸❤️💪🏼 finally I see a real one, not a mediocre, been following Alycia for awhile and I want to see more of her, thank you God, she won this match against #6 ...she plays like a top 10❤️ wow
Wow. A star is born!
SUCH solid fundamentals from Parks. That serve is at both safe and a monster
Terrific match from both players. Well done Alycia!
Well done, Alycia! Hoping to see more from this talented young lady.
I just found out about our America talent! Talented, focused, passionate and fun to watch! This is a rising star! Congratulations Alycia on your first of many titles to come 😁👏🏾🇺🇸!
A new star is born!!!
Defeating Garcia in a final in France is an impressive accomplishment, especially given this was Parks' first tournament victory at the 250 level and above! I think with her big serve and great volleys, Parks can do well at Wimbledon.
Really happy for Alycia Parks as she is on the come up in a big way!!! Great match by Garcia as well. They're both primed to have a great season. I wouldn't be surprised if we see Garcia in a US open final and Parks making a deep run at Wimbledon this year, the big serve and great net play may really push her forward there!
Wow! Stunning. Parks with the spoiler in Lyon for the French fave. Well done, and I'm a Garcia fan.
The second match summary I have seen with Alycia Parks. Very impressive - Caroline Garcia is a great player as well - congratulations to Alycia! She should be expected to climb quite quickly in the rankings.
What a famous victory for young Alycia Parks! This is only the beginning.
We won't have to remember the name Alycia Parks. A player of her caliber is gonna be reminding us with regularity.
wonderful display of net skills, so glad she got the win!
🎉Congratulations A.P. You have reached the top and let them be placed on notice. You continue to climb the WTA ladder with your grit and gamesmanship. Keep that fight no matter how the opposition tries to knock you off you game. 🏆🏆🙏🏽🙏🏽🎶
Gamesmanship?
That was a grand slam final type match. Two heavy hitters with great skill. Parks first serve and ability to break back and not be phased by too much pressure truly shows how resilient she is as a player. From the beginning of this match Parks had nothing to really lose. Her ranking would have moved either way but she was locked in today. The French is a hard crowd to win over, but she managed to fight off the crowd and focus and in the end she was victorious. Parks, take it all the way.
Streak: 15 winnings on hardcourt indoor for Parks 3 tours took (two challenges now a 250) supposedly about to face Kalinina in Linz 🇦🇹 tomorrow also hardcourt indoor.
she's an low level indoor hard court expert. Wait until she plays outdoors tournaments back to qualifying and 1st round losses for this chick
A star is born!!!!
Wow what a great match from two fierce competitors. I love this Sparks young woman. I hope she can stay healthy and play well consistently. Just put in the work.
After hearing about Parks for the first time the end of last year and watching videos comparing her to Serena I was excited to watch her play United Cup. However she was only on the team but but didn’t actually play. Then thought I will see her play in the AO but lost as the 1 seed in the AO qualifiers and I was really disappointed she wasn’t living up to this hype she had. I am so glad to see her come thru here. Hopefully she can continue to raise her level and become a big factor on tour.
I watched this final and it was a great match. A great learning board for Parks against a top player, but she did beat Kvitova in Ostrava. Great serve, great rally tolerance, and good groundstrokes. If there's one thing she work on it's her backhand; she guide pushes too much, she needs to lean forward into it and force it down the court. But she does remind me alot of Serena.
You go parks. Keep God first in your life an you can do anything regardless what anyone says. Congratulations 🎊
Absolutely amazing so happy for you your the complete package. Keep up the good work also congratulations to Caroline
Ok... I confess, I thought that Garcia was going to win in straight sets. But this girl is coming on STRONG! she is proving to be a difficult opponent and if she keeps playing like this, she'll be TOUGH to beat. She seems to have the discipline that Taylor Townsend doesn't appear to have. Alycia came to PLAY. I wish the highlights could've been longer because I wanted to see her 15(!) aces in this match. With this win, it places her in the Top 50. I think that she is indeed on her way! Keep going Alycia and remember to stay humble and just work hard.
Taylor and Alycia have such different playing styles and weapons, and trajectories - how do you compare the two?
@Hammerton32 please most of these tennis fans see that she's black and ONLY compare her to other black players
@@Hammerton32 You do know my skin color don't come off at night right?
@@b.u.dmusic9424 Did I mention anything about your skin color? Please re-read my comment!
Паркс умница,после Серены наконец пришла богиня тенниса,пантера ,болею за тебя
That was great to watch..an. American in France ….🎉Alycia PArks..go girl😊
Looks like someone has found their rhythm. Thats an impressive win and it shows she can play under pressure winning 2 tight sets against a top player.
Parks definitely was inspired by Williams sisters
Congrats, Alycia Parks. Didn't know much about her and never saw her play. Nice to have another good American tennis player. Love the pink court.💗Wish the highlights could be longer but it's much better than nothing.
What an emergence of talent! Outstanding match from both
This girl is DEFO a future top ten! Such variety and intensity at volleys and her game looks amazing very entertaining to watch! This is just the beginning of her career and she has already won a title
Parks will be in the top 10 by year's end if she keeps this up!
Hard to believe that she lost in the qualifying for Melbourne last month. Brilliant week for Parks who has all the makings of a top 10 mainstay. If she can improve her footwork and cut back on the double faults, she'll be unstoppable.
Wow Parks first WTA main draw title in France and her Idol the Goat Serena Williams won her first title in Paris! This is beautiful! ❤️ I see something amazing in the making and I’m all here for it!! ❤️🎶❤️🎶
OMG YESS!!! Go Parks! Instant fan wow. Her serve is sooo beautiful
Alycia is probably the most athletic player right now in an era where the game is very physical, I see her as a candidate for slams maybe not this year but soon
THE FIELD IN TOP TEN IS COMPOSED OF UNSTEADY PLAYERS, PARKS HAS THE KNACK AND TECHNICAL SKILLS TO KNOCK OUT TOP FIVE. I THINK PARKS WILL WIN A GRAND SLAM THIS YEAR USA OPEN. SABALENKA GONNA TAKE THREE. .IGA, AND THE REST HAVE COLLAPSED. ..PARKS HAS VARIOUS SKILLS MANY, MANY LACK.
I love you parks, U Go Girl
2 players with such similar games. Booming topspin serves and giant forehands along with very solid netplay. Great play from both and congrats to Alycia!
probably the match of the year so far she’s is the real deal
Not to jump in the immediate comparison with Serena, but Serena's maiden title came at a French event early in the year against a French opponent. She went on to win the US Open that year.
I was thinking this girl reminds me of Serena the first time I saw her. Her movement, body, the way she wags her index finger. Oh dear.
Great tennis! Hoping we get more tennis like this. All court, no screaming, volleys, approaches, what's not to love. Almost like a rewind button to early noughties WTA! Parks has it all...hoping to see a lot more of her winning ways.
You know you're old af and digging for likes when you add "no screaming"
Agreed! I haven't really paid too much attention to her before but she made a fan out of me!
Weird how she loses to no names but also manages to win tournaments beating top pros, just Wta things I guess 😂
Well, I think this girl is gonna be a #1 sooner rather than later
Love the confidence from parks. 👌
Parks and Zhu! Great determination and fight for their first time WTA titles! 👏
Alycia and Coco Gauff are the next new talents to watch out for after Serena and Venus! Keep up the great work girls!
Thank you
Dear Alycia I strong believe in you. Keep going and keep up the faith 🙏
Congratulation Alycia! you deserve it!!
AMAZING!!! ❤❤❤
You're a star Parks. Congrats
To God be all the glory Alycia Parks!! Keep thanking him! Great job! I’ve been following you! So proud of you 🇺🇸!!! 🎾
Baby!!! Those of us who have been her fans knew it was only a matter of time!!! YASSSSS!!!!!!
That part!!
Whoa 😳 that net game is phenomenal. Would love to see her carve out her own path and bring some much needed excitement to the WTA post Serena, Sharapova, Henin....
A star is born, I think. Wow.
She got the yips out of her system with yesterday's match, well done. And I think the smiles for the elf in the rafters are really nice.
in 1999 serena beats mauresmo in paris indoor her first final ............
Well deserved Alicia. You will win a grandslam soon.
Bravo Alicia , très beau match ! 😍😍😍😍😍😍
If She do that, she will dominate WTA
Parks is the real deal. Her game has improved so much. She has beaten a lot of high-quality opponents. She just has to continue to work hard, and the results will come. Once she gets her ranking up, she will not have to qualify for the majors. Going through the qualifying is very hard. I think they have to win three matches to get into the main draw, and you have former champions and a lot of hungry players trying to make it out of the qualifying rounds.
Well she wont have to play any qualifying rounds any more. She is now #52 in the world
@@jwashington4863 Should anyones ranking and points drop below 128, they have to play qualifying to participate in slams !!
@@robertmartin7594 ok and we knew that
@@jwashington4863 No, you didn't know that or you wouldn't have suggested otherwise. But now you do !!
