I like Sabalenka’s fighting spirit. I also love Iga’s calmness and her skills.
Some people hate her because she's too bold. I personally like her sportmanship, she ALWAYS congratulates nicely at the net whether she wins or loses. Here we see Sabalenka tried to be not so happy in front of Iga (because we all know what happened in her match with Sakkari).
@@marianagaoka9687 which player is always gracious regardless of result?
Proud of Iga performance: she played smart and was able to counter Sabalenka brute force in an elegant way. For now, it's fine... in the future, she has to massively improve her serve, and develop a flat strong forehand, but she's only 20 and her potential is incredible. Jazda magica Iga... my sweet genius baby!
5 months later - looks like she's already figured Sabalenka out. 👌
@@dominicthiemfan4111 seems so...
@@lucasalvarani317 more than "seems so" now :)
@@zongowest3901 you're right! Jazdaaa! But the serve is still very weak... needs a great improvement.
It was tough watching because I really like both of them and, because Sabalenka has Depression issues and Iga's crying the last time touched me.
But someone had to win: Congrats, Aryna on this win, but you also, Iga, for making the WTA finals.
no not saba,osaka has major depression issues right now
@@galatasaray984 No Saba had depression after she lost her dad
@@Mahalakshmi-Khan This is suddenly a contest? And further, dump the "issues.:" Nonsense both.
Yeah I really like both players as well.
@@charvaka9526 women players have all kind of excuses for not having good mental game, if a man fails the same they just say he choked
Finally good to see Iga self-motivated and playing good tennis (since Rome) in the 3rd set. Which is happening very occasionally these days. And no dramas 🤪Well done 👏🏻 Love the spirit of Sabalenka!
On the match of Sakkari and Iga, i saw Iga cried when having a handshake, and after this match, i can now fell her emotion. Good match of Aryna and so sympathise for Iga
What an epic match. It's a pitty that Iga wasn't able to succeed eventually as she is now out of contest, however it was a completely different Iga from one that lost to Sakkari. Good luck next time

High octane match. First time I am seeing Sabalenka getting so much crowd support. The crowd was one sided against her in match against Leylah at US open SF. Like both Iga and her. Since Iga has a GS already, I was hoping for Sabalenka win. Hopefully Iga will do great next year, though this year wasn't shabby, considering shr made TWA finals, won Rome masters, reached RG QF.
sabalenka: produces an amazing return in the corner on swiatek’s service
swiatek: uno reverse card
Sabalenka: ahhhhhhhhhhh
Swiatek: passing shot winner
I like the quiet but fighting way of Iga.
A pity she lost
I live her to pieces, she's so smooth... but she needs to up her athleticism a little bit, she's a tad slow on lateral movements
Even though these matches aren't going the way she's hoping, I hope Swiatek can take the losses and recognize this as an opportunity to fine tune her strategy against these players for next year. She will undoubtedly run into half of these players or other players with the strong flat hitting style that she struggles against. The more notches they get under their belt against her the more of a psychological hurdle this will become esp for grand slams. It seems this year has been about consistency for her, but would love to see her play with some more fire and creativity when she really doesn't have much to loose here. One thing I'll say that Sabelenka did well here was take energy from the crowd and in some situation even generate it on her own. Good skill to have now that crowds are back.
When a hard flat came, even though, they were near Swaitek, her reply were a spin sitting duck ball. Her grip is similar to Jack Sock. The racket travel with a lot of leading edge, so less string presented to the flat ball, very unforgiving, hence the sit up ball with spin, ready to be crushed in the next shot.
@@wisanu99 Yes you are right; however, Iga has to learn how to use that western grip efficiently. Sock literally has the best forehand on the tour, but the other parts of his game along with his mindset is weak. Iga has to use that grip more efficiently- it can be done. It is not hard to flatten out the ball with a western grip- it just takes practice.

These ladies are so good -- it's ridiculous the level of talent in the WTA. Swiatek got beat (again) but that girl has so much game, and hasn't hit her peak yet. Nothing's too fast for her, and she does everything well. And she still lost, because when Sabalenka is on, she can be a terror. (She also seems to choke a lot too. Reason unknown.) I get the feeling a lot of people don't like Aryna, because she is loud and seems overly emphatic on court. But she is a major slammer and flat-out dominates sometimes. Great match!!
Reason is known. Unforced errors
I enjoy watching Sabalenka specially when she's mad
Now it’s 2022 and IGA is dominating the women’s game. She has 3 Grand Slams now and multiple titles.
I like both of them so didn't mind either winning. Iga started off strong but Sabalenka showed some real fight to turn things around. Often when she loses she can mentally checkout (like the Badosa match) but she didn't this time and did a great job of feeding off the crowd's energy. Iga did well to recover from the first match which left her in tears. Both Aryna and Iga have things to work on going into the next season though. Saba needs to add some variety to her game (especially when hitting the ball as hard as possible isn't working) and Iga needs to add some aggression to her game. Especially when she comes up against players like Saba who plays first strike tennis.
Amen. Too much weak topspin. I wish she would practice a flatter shot, or a forehand down the line, more.
Sabalenka’s passion is out of this world
brainless ball basher
These women have many matches to play against each other in the future. Great one here!!
They sure do.
Sabalenka seemed completely lost just like on the first match, but came back very strong for the 2nd set and she's now a alive and fighting for the title. This woman is so unpredictable
she is always lost lol
Wild match. Exactly what i expected from this.
Un match incroyable....deux championnes....des battantes....mais les coups puissants de Sabalenka aux services, en coups droits et decroises c'est purement magnifique....bravissimo
Gota say this has got to be the most electric tournament we have had all year, impressive considering they are only allowed 50 percent capcity on the upper ring. Hopefully Mexico can retain this facility and host a WTA500 event going forward.
US Open I’d say was the best.
I felt too many top seeds got knocked out to early in the US open and not many crowd support for doubles. Here the atmosphere is lit no matter who’s playing, and the quality of tennis is on another level with many nail biters going the distance. I like the round robin format as well.
@@mta4677 Well it was great for the newcomers and the support for them. Raducanu, Fernandez and Alcaraz made a name of themselves.
@@mta4677 Nothing tops this years US Open.
Great crowd once again
Iga for me you didnt played bad at all you really improving . And i know the luck was not there for you . For sure you will come more stronger in your next match good luck .
What an amazing atmosphere for these night matches! This is so great to see. WTA, please, keep the WTA Finals in Guadalajara for the next seasons!!
Congratulations to Aryna, you're making Belarus proud. Iga was also soooo good. It was just a matter of luck.
Iga was intense when the coin was tossed 😂
Lol. Maybe she should have been a boxer. She was swinging hard.
Kudos to Saba for struggling with confidence, but continued to go for it and somehow won. Watching this early I thought Iga had this, she looked very sad almost in tears after her first RR match, so I hope she isn’t too down. Her level when she is on is one of the highest on tour at the moment, she has a lot to be proud of in this fight.
Great fight by Aryna, congrats💫. Wanted Iga to win💛
Iga you showed how good you can be, you will win next time
It's like watching Serena Vs Henin 2.0 😂 and I'm here for it 😁
Wow! Guadalajara crowd gettin' behind Sabalenka. They got her sooo fired up 🎾.
Dam Iga that was some intense swinging the first 10 secs of the video lol
I thought the same.
Reminds me of Nadal
Świetny mecz🎾🎾🎾Wygrało szczęście!!tylko głowa do góry i nie załamuj się !! To był super rok a następny będzie jeszcze lepszy, zobaczysz🎾🎾🎾
Pozdrawiam z Wiednia
One of the best matches, let's go Aryna! 🐯🎾♡
There’s something about Aryna..I was on the edge of my seat and I’m so HAPPY for her win. Showing why she’s the top seed. Tip: watch the highlights before going to the comments, it’ makes it more exciting 😄
Wow ... bravo Aryna Sabalenka 👏👏👏
WTA finals this year is on fire! I like both of these players. So sad to see Iga lost today and the match before. I hope she’ll have another great season and comeback to this tournament next year.
Hopefully Iga make some changes during the off season and get back to her 2020 form. In 2021, she lost many matches that she should have won, including this one. One minute she is beating her opponent, than the next she looks like her mind goes off somewhere else and she lets her opponent back in the game. She is no longer aggressive like she was in the past. I hope next year is better for her.
2021 was really a year of two halves. Prior to Roland Garros, she had won 2 tournaments, one on hard courts ( which people say is her weakness), double bagged Pliskova in the final at Rome and in Paris, made the quarters, bageling Konaveit ( remember her?) on the way. She seems to have the right attitude looking at her social media posts but the mental game still does go away sometimes on the court. Her serve is nowhere near what it needs to be to stay in the top 10 for a long period of time. I wonder if a coaching change may happen if she doesn't improve on her second half of 2021 during 2022 or after that season.
Sabalenka the warrior princess
It’s 2022 now and IGA is dominating the women’s game. She has 3 Grand Slams now and multiple titles. 😄🎾🎾🎾
Raducanu needs to work hard to have any chance against these girls
Aryna really knew how to play and fire the crowd! Exactly one of the fantastic game this year!
I love the match!! I love the crowd!! One of the best matches so far!
My two favorite players. Damn, what a match
Iga did what she always do. Her confidence always dwindles when her opponent is aggressive. Her lobs won't work on the caliber of Arynna. Iga must be feeling frustrated on her strategies. She needs a better trainer who studies the weakness of her potential opponents and apply that knowledge to Iga's training regimen. Proud of Iga's efforts but she has a lot of potential to improve her game on hard courts.
I noticed the same about her coaching, she's physically fit but her strategies are not good. I mentioned earlier this year she needs a more experienced coach and some Polish people replied saying that her coach (who happens to be from Poland) is "just perfect" and that she shouldn't change him, they don't acknowledge an all-polish-team pride will take Iga nowhere.
@@marianagaoka9687 Totally agree with you.
@@marianagaoka9687 it's not true. Most Polish tennis fans advocate for replacing Iga's current coach ....(actually the whole team).
@@marcinpapke Are you Polish? It was the response some gave me on Facebook, and it's easy to check from their profile they were from Poland.
@@marianagaoka9687 Yes I am. If you read Polish comments under Iga's twitter posts the vast majority suggest a change in her team.
Sabalenka really is a great athlete. It always looks like my playback speed is faster when she’s playing
Woww. Aryana serving is so powerful 🔥🔥
But she do many double fautes .
Sabalenka é demais!!! Jogou com uma intensidade incrível... como sempre!! Congrat, Arina Sabalenka!!!
I like both players, I'm glad they both showed better things than in their first match in Guadalajara, Iga played better and Aryna showed a fightback she didn't show in the first match, they both somehow won on themselves.
Iga learned her lesson. Look what happened in her next 2 matches vs Sabalenka.
Let's go Sabalenka
Extrovert vs Introvert.
Reminds me of the matches between Halep and Sharapova.
When Halep played amazing, but still lost.
Que bueno que hayas despertado en el transcurso del partido Sabalenka, eres unas gran jugadora, tienes un nivel muy alto, dale rienda suelta a tus ideas, no te necierres entre cuatro a realizar todo meditado, suéltate y haz tuya la cancha, tu puedes, eres increíble. Felicitaciones.
Good playing Iga. I'm Proud of you.
Even though Sabalenka hit 16 double faults I love that she didn’t fold that’s what #2’s do win ugly. Growth from her in that aspect and Iga played well Sabalenka it just to overwhelming when she finds the mark hope she does well next year.
sabalanka... power house... ❤️
Look at the weak balls she was getting, of course she would crush them.
I like them both, however I cannot help but Aryna has that personality..this match was an amazing showcase of strenght and persistence. Thank you both! 🔥❤️
Que impotencia estar en México pero no en Guadalajara para apoyar a mi Iga. Tengo la seguridad de que volverá y màs fuerte. 💪 🤍❤️
Impotence to be in Mexico but not to be in Guadalajara to support my Iga. I know that it will come back and stronger 💪🤍❤️ A Mexican fan. From Pueblaaaaa 💛
Сколько комментов!Спасибо неравнодушным болельщикам. Арина -- огонь,так заряжает болельщиков,ч то вместе с ней кричу,,камон,,и радуюсь каждому красивому удару.Ига тоже молодец,получила огромный опыт и сражалась отчаянно.
Sabalenka’s forehand so high quality
Good job Saba! ♥️💪🎉🎾
I guess this was the moment of the birth of a star!
What a match 😍😍😍
Aryna Sabalenka,,,, keep going on The Best
rooting for these two ❤️❤️❤️
congrats to both of them they did great
I turn the sound way down low when I see that Sabalenka is playing.
no kidding, mate.
simply awesome... :)
Saba. that was impressive.! Thought you could do it.! You played like the champ you are. Love the outfit by the way.!
It was a good game to watch.
The behaviour of Aryna is limit. Screaming like she did is clearly disrespectful for the other player.
This was a thrilling match and mainly a mental fight. Iga has improved is mindset but has still some work to do. I am confident that she will cope with this problem in the future. She has also to go on to adapt her game to hard court. She is on a good track. Aryna has work to do to manage her temper and to understand that tennis is not only power. I wish the best to both players.
Me encanta sabalenka pura potencia
Power versus Strategy. Today, it was power that won. I loved this match for the contrasting styles, and it really could have gone either way. I would have been happy whoever won. Well done Aryna (and Iga).
Only big girls win, and Saba came good.
Gotta love Sabalenka!
Thank you sabalenka
Good match.
ARYNA SABALANKA MY FAVORITE VERY GOOD PLAYER GO ARYNA GO
Swiatek is in urgent need of a sliced backhand. It doesn't have to be amazing, just good enough to slow things down and reduce the angles when she's left the court open. With that single shot, I think she'd have won that match. Somebody like Sabalenka will just slam balls away if Swiatek is on the defensive trying to hit top spin with no pace and balls dropping short.
after changing to her red shirt..Sabalenka is on fire power..good entertaining match
yes iga! you're now doing great! keep it up!
COME ON! I ❤️ Sabalenka. 😊
Wow I wish I could’ve seen the full match cause they looked like they were getting it in.
Fantastic, not sure how this round robin works so can’t figure out which match up is next 🤷🏻♀️
By virtue of Aryna Sabalenka winning the match against Iga Swiatek, Paula Badosa will advance to the semifinals. Maria Sakkari & Aryna Sabalenka will contest for the remaining semifinal slot on their group on Monday. While Swiatek is already out of the contest even if she wins on her final RR match against Badosa.
Round Robin Win-Loss
Badosa 2-0
Sakkari 1-1
Sabalenka 1-1
Swiatek 0-2
Aryna getting support from the crowds. She should add a "Vamos!"
What a battle!
Nice crowds.
Guadalajara is having some great matches at night
Все время удивляюсь крепкому характеру Арины, всегда в борьбе, всегда готова победить. С заслуженной победой!
Iga walczyła jak lwica tutaj! Widać serducho do walki! JAZDAAAA!
Iga, jak Ci nie wychodzi to idź w złość a nie w płacz. Gniew wyzwala dużą dawkę adrenaliny po której człowiek dostaje takiego kopa że jest w stanie siłą mięśni zerwać ścięgna! Płacz osłabia i zwiększa niemoc. Oczywiście nie życzę zerwania ścięgna. Twój gniew musi zniszczyć rywalkę, nie dać jej żadnych szans!
Gniew już przerabiała i to destruktywna droga. Jest trzecia droga - zachować zimną krew - najtrudniejsza do opanowania, często potrzeba lat, aby dojść w niej do mistrzostwa.
@@vojtasjedyny czemu destruktywna, skoro naturalna?
@@wanmic1 Autodestruktywna. Gniew nie prowadzi do niczego dobrego, bo nie pozwala się skupić na własnej grze, uniemożliwia trzeźwe myślenie, które jest podstawą w rozpracowywaniu przeciwnika. Na dłuższą metę wygrywają mądre, zimne głowy. Sabalenka może nigdy nie wygrać turnieju wielkiego szlema właśnie z tego powodu.
Good win for Saba, the match against sakkari will be vital.
Szkoda bardzo mi ciebie Iga:-( tak niewiele zabrakło abyś to ty wygrała ten mecz...
This level of play.. amazing hitting..
...but look at the short shots she was getting.
@@AndrzejzBuffalo yes. I feel Iga's defensive loopy forehand is a liability..gives time for the opponent to set up. Serve also needs to improve
@@criticalmass500, I totally agree. Needs a coach who will be serious about it. Maybe he is, but I'm seeing no change.
@@criticalmass500 she needs to learn how to flatten out her forehand on a hard court too much spin this isn’t clay. The serve is also increasingly getting attackable she serve well in the first set but she relied too much on the kick serve for the rest of the match.
@@lilnickydabaddest3451 Agree 👍
Wow a match
Epic!!
Sabalenka's time is over before it started.
No photo before the match like everyone else does? Interesting.
Отличный матч. Наконец то Арина справилась с собой, хотя Сватек сильный соперник.
Sabalenka s got a one dimensional power game.. Still manages to win thanks to her build which generates so much power. Igas really struggling.. All she needs is clay confidence
Sabalenka really is obnoxious in every possible way, had never seen these HL before but those forced interactions with the crowd were just the icing on the cake lmao
I LOVE YOU ARYNA!
Iga ! Są takie uderzenia po linii które są trudne ale.. gdy po każdym innym returnie jest wielce prawdopodobne ze dostaniesz "gwoździa" nie marnuj okazji. Masz szansę 50% na 50%.
W przeciwnym razie masz 20% szans że przeciwniczka przyśnie. Dajesz skrót, nie stój nie obserwuj ale idziesz do asekuracji! Przewiduj co przeciwniczka może zrobić i asekuruj.
Za dużo piłek na rakietę przeciwniczkom. Jeszcze niedawno to było rzadkością. Mijałaś przeciwniczki, piłki przeciw krokom, obserwacja pola to była twoja wizytówka. Myślę że czas intensywniej grać w turniejach. Jeżeli wchodzisz w rytm i nabierasz mechanizmu w dobrych uderzeniach graj. Jeżeli walczysz ze zmęczeniem, każdy następny mecz to "wielka góra" przerwa, relaks, opanuj
w tym czasie nowe uderzenie, popraw serwis i z nową amunicją ... Iga!!
I like Sabalenka. She's fierce like a certain other 23 time major winner...Swiatek reminds me a lot of Henin on court minus the backhand swing.
How can you not be fierce when you're hitting softballs ? Anyone would.
