Wow, what a run by Collins! 12 straight wins 😳. She really is in "Danimal" mode. Hope she can claim her second title of the season.
Her only other two titles she won back to back!
She finally not trying to blast her way through everytime. The deep loopy forehand has been such an effective change of pace for her. 👏👏👏👏
It is what Iga does very effectively, and Jelena Ostapenko, too. But there is surely power behind their shots, else they wouldn't be good, like Leylah--she places balls well but with no power.
Nice, so happy for her. She's always been a great player, but just seems to fall short too many times. Love that she's playing so great.
Thank you Danielle, well done and deserved! 🤩🙏🍀
77% points won on first serve is a beast stat. The only time she didn't reach 70% stat in Charleston was the match against Ons.
Danielle is on fire. Her ball placement from Miami until now has been unreal. She’s on a mission
It’s very bittersweet because Danielle has always always been able to play at this level, and for her to do this now when she is retiring in a few months in Nov is just a beautiful bittersweet ending, I hope and pray she wins a Slam because she definitely can
Collins is really on fire....what a sequence of victories! Absolutely amazing
Has anyone ever won Miami on hardcourts and then Charleston on clay? To me that's more impressive than winning Indian Wells and then Miami, both on hard courts.
I’m pretty sure it’s been done. I can say for certainty that Serena won both in 2013.
Serena did the same in 2008 I believe
@@drewadler236 That year as well.
I trust Serena to have done that.
how is winning Charleston where most top 10 players didnt show up more impressive than sunshine doubles?
Not poor Sakkari's semi-final loosing streak 😭
Sakkari had won 4 of her last 5 SFs coming in, so she wasn't on any kind of losing streak.
@@Shilo1987 She's already lost so many semifinals and finals that it's long gone down in history
@@Shilo1987 how many finals did she win?
Watch collins not lose a match the rest of the year.....miami...charleston ..french open,,,wimbledon... and retire like a boss at the usopen
😂😂😂😂😂
Well done Danielle! 👏 ❤
Danny's on fire.
Omg Collins, the girl on fire, I’m sure all the supporting messages from the fans must have inspired her as well
Beast mode continues
Woooow now this a farewell tour! I hope she can continue this peak into a major
Although Maria improved signifigantly, still she continues playing in the centre waiting for opponent mistakes, which can cost her matches like this one. She needs to learn to send balls in the corners. Surely well deserved by Collins today.
Go Danielle. You are playing fantastic tennis.
well done Danielle on reaching your second final keep fighting and the title will be yours🔥💪
Can’t wait until Collins wipes out the arrogant Kasatkina.
What a run goooo danielle
Collins is in great form recently!I smell a win for her number 12 on Sunday and another title for her!😊
She’s really just controlling the points, moving her opponents around, and then hitting them off the court with that nasty cross court backhand. No fist pumping and screaming, just focus and relaxed power and placement. She’s making it look so easy right now!
Jeeez if only the rest of wta had this level of consistency. Collins n swiatek r the few ones
Would be good to see Collins win RG before she calls it a day.
Collins 2.0
How I love this girl, good luck in the finals, beautiful Danielle💖💞
I believe she has a Slam in her! I just hope she decides to extend her retirement to get it.
Wow… May everything be auspicious 🙏🏽
would be a fittng end if she could win the french open and retire into the sunset!
Good old Maria. Nice yo ser you back at SF.
Wow! Fantastic Match 💪
DC's "last hurrah"........Congrats!! 🖤♠
Danni sense of URGENCY/PURPOSE can be seen in her groundies ...hope she wins a major this year
She's in GOATmode
Collins basically only loses to Iga at this point😂
Another SF lost for Sakkari; but c'mon .... it is still better than not consistent at all. Keep fighting Sakkari 💪
What was the song at the end of that match
Collins is on a ROLL. 💪💪💪
Awesome!
When you decide to retire, you completely relax and play with no care. Look what happened. Tennis as much mental game as it is extremely physical same time.
Aplausos pra Collins ela merece 👏👏👏😂😂
Maria is playing well under her new coach. Collins is just on fire.
Danimal! 😂 She is striking the ball so well.
Danielle Collins looks alike like Jeanie Buss , she won today and playing the Finals , South Carolina Tennis 🎾!
Well done go for it Collins
The green dress power !
Collins looks to be a contender to win Wimbledon
Oh no! Sad for Sakkari, another lost at SF again and again. people always love you and support you no matter win or lost
I root for Collins but love watching Sakkari too
No double rain delay to save her day I don't want to disrespect 😭
You slice the ball to try and slow down the pace and I'll just hit right through you. 😂
If Collins goes on winning like this in this tournament, she might even win it.
Wow, go Danielle!!
I think she really could have won the AO, if she didn't throw away the match against Swiatek.
Yes, same, I think she can do this in this year
I don’t think I would call it “throwing the match away”. She fought until the end and got outplayed by Swiatek who was cooler under the intense pressure. It was a long battle those two had and she put in effort until the last point.
Collins ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Danielle is on fire since Miami Open!
Get them collins, love her very much, she is all business😊
Go Collins! Hopefully, another title and keeps moving up the rankings before the French Open.
Collins did such a great improvement
Looks like Def Leppard is continuing to fire up Danielle... what an awesome run by her! 🙂
Shes playing like swiatek now fast hitting and winners after winners
Collins. 🔥🔥🔥
Has anyone mentioned she’s kind of hot???
Danielle, you might wanna reconsider your retirement this year.
Could day make the dirt more green for better contrast. Having a hard time seen the ball when the sunlight is so bright?
I hate to say it but tennis needs Collins right now. Wishing her continued success but I do hope she reconsiders retiring this year.
Gone are the days of top players who transcend sport like the Williams, Sharapova, and Osaka. Guaff is the only big name in tennis right now. As much as I like Swiatek, Sabalenka, and Rybakina, we need a personality and Collins is currently delivering the star power the WTA needs at the moment.
In what sense is Gauff a big name? 😂 Or Collins?💀 None of them possess any star power nor can they even remotely match achievements of Swiatek or even Sabalenka. If you want flashing lights go with Raducanu😂
@@Jaacob_777 Guaff is known outside of the tennis world. People would know her name without actually following tennis. Has nothing to do with actual talent. Obviously Swiatek is the best player in the world at the moment but no one outside of tennis fans would have any idea who she is. Collins has star potential to get the WTA more recognition and she is also currently on a hot streak. Radacanu was a one hit wonder but still did not transcend sports like a Serena or Sharapova who were household names.
She said several times she will still retire, just respect her decision
@@AFCompanygauff was hyped to be the next Serena which is only reason people outside of tennis world may know her and shes clearly NOT. Swiatek came a longer way - she doesnt have the western media behind her because shes not american. But to say shes not recognized is pretty wild,she also got some top partnerships like rolex, porsche and more.
@@Jaacob_777 Coco was hyped up for sure but every young player is. Swiatek has had great success and I think she should be more of a star than she currently is. I wouldn’t say it is western media based as Sharapova is russian and even Kournikova was very famous outside of tennis. Osaka was also big for a bit. WTA just doesn’t have stars or rivalries at the moment.
Collins on time to unstoppable
Dani is the only player than can beat Osaka , Swiatek , Rybakina, Ons, I'm not sure if she's beaten Sabalenka... and the more she plays she becomes so confident and is tough to beat so interested to see what she'll bring in the latter clay court season ❤❤
If Danielle wins this title, I wonder if she will be The one to beat from here on, apart from maybe Iga, and Aryna (if she can overcome her unfortunate recent loss soon enough).
But I have to believe every one of them will start not wanting to be in Danielle's half draw.
She has the iga pop when striking the ball.
Collins has achieved more results in the last month than Raducanu has achieved in her whole career with one lucky slam
WERKkkkk Danielle!!!!!
Danielle congrats👏
Sakkari is the best SFist ever.
What's this, her 25th SF loss?
For all the hubbub around her SF record, she only has a handful of bad losses (Raducanu, Saisai Zheng, Trevisan if you count United Cup as a thing, arguably Martic, arguably Hercog); in reverse order, her other losses are Collins, Pegula, Vekic, Sabalenka, Sabalenka, Pegula, Garcia, Bencic, Swiatek, Kontaveit, Alexandrova, Krejcikova, Andreescu, Kontaveit, Sabalenka, Azarenka, Rybakina, Pliskova, Bertens, Garcia. It's all top players, players who were in amazing form at the time, and players who are dangerous/powerful enough to trouble anybody if they get hot.
How tight she gets during pressure matches is definitely the number one culprit for her SF record, but I also think that her game style lends itself to having the racquet taken from her hand by more aggressive players. Like, I don't think she played that badly today against Collins. It's just that Collins is not only in the zone right now but has the type of game that can rush/bother Sakkari.
I'll also say that since the US Open SF loss to Raducanu, she's 8-13 in SFs with wins over Swiatek, Badosa (when she was top 10), Pegula, Gauff, and Garcia. 8-13 isn't great, either, but I do think it's promising(-ish) that she's improving there.
@@Shilo1987 RADDERS 'demoralised' Sakkari at USO 2021, she 'demoralised' them all, not 1 of the 10 who lost to EMMA have gone on to win anything significant (the exception being LAF who won a WTA 250 In Monterey 2022).
None of them were the same and couldn't figure out how they were 'humiliated' in straight sets by an 18yr old 'qualifier' playing in just her 2nd ever slam !!
Not "semi-final Sakkari". 😂😂😂
Collins keeps rolling on. You can't give Collins any free points or easy wins.
Danielle 🥰😍🥰😍😘😘
I don't know why sakkari always experiences defeat in semifinal, such a pity moment for her, i mean most tournaments
Gosh Darnef I think Collins will win a slam this year 🎉
Wow!!it's showtime collins. We can ssy the rolang garros having chapionship
Why hasnt she won more?
Go Danimal! Another title please!
720p video in the year 2024.
Collins is likely to be the winner of this competition.
720p in 2024 🤨
WTF Collins? Why didn't you announce your retirement 7-8 years ago? Surely you'd have 5-6 majors!!!! WTF
At the age of 30, she seems to find the bug of WTA tennis.
Her coaching has changed?? If it has it is definitely working....go Danielle
Way to go Danielle!
Love to collins
Good play from Collins...she is pretty...wish she win the final...greeting from Indonesia
Go Danielle!!! Git that honey!! (Honey badger reference)
Jawohl Collins 😊👍
The only player who disappoints more than Pegula is Sakkari.
A very disappointing performance by Maria Sakkari 🎾.
why is collins retiring if she is destroying everyone?
She has rheumatoid arthritis and endometriosis. She also wants to start a family.
Did you consider that it might just be the opposite? She's destroying everyone because she knows that she will retire soon and is at peace with that decision hence she's totally relaxed and plays without pressure.
Is Collins still thinking of retiring from tennis at the end of this year?
She just does not play balls over, she makes plays to develop a winning shot.
Szkoda że Sakari przegrała,nie dążę sympatią nadmuchanej Colins
and is she going to retire this year? What a shame.
Okay…I’ll be that guy.
Something ain’t right to me.
Out of nowhere…she’s just blasting through the top players in the world?!?! On multiple surfaces?!?! And don’t give me that, “She’s playing free because her last go” stuff. You can’t be a 40th rank player or so and just flip a switch and start beating all the top players. So what does this mean? She was just tanking her whole career if she can just whip this out? Or is something else happening that’s a bit more behind the scenes? I have no hate for Collins. I know pretty much the whole locker room doesn’t really like her. But something just ain’t right to me with all this. There, I’ll be that guy😁
I 💯 agree with you. It’s not normal and I’ve been screaming it for like ever. Something ain’t right and we won’t know because she’s retiring. One can go to any lengths just to prove a point after all no one will know
So what are you implying?
The dumb guy.
@@Mc-kk4fd Yeah, that something ain’t right or shady’s going on. I don’t jump to PED’s because even those take time, and all this has happened in a matter of a week or two. What it appears to me as is some kind of “forced branding” to “remake” her image through some kind of match fixing. Even as I type this, she just ROLLED through Kasatkina in the final?!?! Again, at the top of the game, in any sport, this doesn’t happen. You can’t just flip a switch and start destroying everyone at the top. This is why I think some kind branding fixing:
It’s the American swing of the tour.
They want their American to leave being painted in a brighter light than she’s always had on tour.
Okay She even has nicknames like “Danimal” now?!? Where was this her whole career?
And again, if all this is wrong, and Danielle has had this in her her whole career, where’s it been? And what has she been doing? Which also doesn’t paint a good like.
Again, no hate, but something ain’t right.
