I watched this clip again and couldn’t believe how well Emma read Sakari’s serves. She moved to the direction right after Sakari tossed the ball and returned them beautifully. Her court awareness is unbelievable. No wonder she won.
Well said. I am so glad to see new leadership
I've noticed this too - I think she's been learning from A.M how to return
Her backhand, her forehand. She has speed, mentally strong. Returns are on fire. Raducanu has a bright future in tennis.
She is very tactical and adjust the game to win the whole game. So talented
Her "present" isn't too shabby!
Bright future.. way bigger than tennis
1 year later tada da da da 😂😂😂😂
Her what?????
Crash!! She burst onto the scene from out of nowhere like a thunderbolt, and, suddenly, women's tennis is a pleasure to watch again! 😊😊😊
Stop this crazy simping, its like it wasnt interesting before
So your saying that it was never interesting before🤨. Ur a little sus.
I can watch emma play all day...never been into women's tennis before but she's making me
I haven't watched women's tennis since Justine Henin was destroying the competition with one of the best backhands the game has ever seen. She used to be so entertaining to watch. Raducanu is a different type of player but I find her tennis similarly entertaining.
MAN OF CULTURE!
SAMEEEE
@@CHEESYhairyGASH I agree. Justine and Emma have that similar x factor. The same tenacity. Justine is my female tennis idol. Now, I can see Emma joining Justine in my all time favorite list
Same
Officially a fan of raducannu...she is a beautiful talented intelligent tennis player ! Wow
Me too. And she plays like Li Na but is much younger and better for the mental strength. Brilliant future to come
I saw her first!
@@newmennium Get in line like the rest of us, buddy !
@@boke75 Take a number dude!
Emma saved so many break points this game. In fact, she did that in a lot of her games. So cool under pressure.
She also had soooo many break points on Sakkari's serve but missed like 70% of them. This is just her 3rd month on tour, lol. She'll improve.
@@boke75 Ha, yeah I noticed that too. Could've easily been at 5-2 2nd set if she'd have been able to convert. But she will improve, yeah.
Like Djokovic - when up against it just digs in: “they shall not pass”
@@boke75 She went backwards
A backslide à la Bouchard.
She was so measured with her shots even as she was going for them. She put so much pressure on opponent's serve, Sakkari never had an easy game.
In her ten matches at the USO, Emma returned every second serve she faced from inside the baseline!
Her end-of-match reaction is great. Almost sublime.
Feel same. There is hard work there
She’s surprise how much better she was than Sakari
@@b.h.7423 She's elated that she can now afford that rubber duckie mom won't buy for her.
@@iemranjuffri4827 don’t seek a career in stand up comedy..or joke writing
Emma's reaction by dropping her racket when she won was epic. Her hands over her head in a state of fairy tale unbelievable moment reminded me of the GOAT in football, Tom Brady when he won his first ring. I got that same feeling with Emma Raducanu. She will become the goat of tennis imo
Oddly similar trajectory. Tom gets his break when Bledsoe was taken out, gets the Pats to the playoffs, then wins his 1st SB in his 2nd season
Emma only gets into her first GS at Wimbledon via a wild card, gets to the 4th round, then enters her 2nd GS at the US Open and wins.
Let's hope she has as many GS Final wins and appearances as TB12 does SBs so far.
GOAT in football? Surely that would be Messi, Maradona, Ronaldo maybe? Oh, you mean that football where they carry it around their hands the whole time...I see 🤦♂️
You know what, I had the same thought, although at first I couldn't remember where I'd seen that "first championship" reaction before. Then I was like "oh yeah, Tom Brady". Yes... Emma has a chance to become the GOAT in women's tennis. This is just the beginning.
"She will become the goat of tennis"...hahahahahahaha my this aged well didn't it, what has she done since? Oh thats right, nothing. And you think she'll be greater than the likes of Federer, Nadal and Williams on the back of a single impressive tournament. Your delusions know no limits. Bet you don't even watch tennis but simply took a ride on the Radacanu bandwagon. The fairytale is over now I'm sorry to inform you, back to the real world.
Calm down my guy
Her game is amazing. My goodness
Just gotta love this girl. Wasn’t that the most beautiful reaction at the end of the match. Humility and joy, garnished with the world’s most wonderful smile. She is a gift to tennis.
That Raducanu backhand weight transfer is exemplary
With the perfect combination of power and panache, Raducanu is the quintessential Femme Fedal.
That’s layla
@@ybemil She's not the one who just won the US Open tho is she
@@cwells45 I’m saying game wise and shots wise
Indeed
Regardless your femme fedal pun was quite clever. Surprised no one picked up on it.
The full match would be great, she is just an absolute pleasure to watch. What a player.
I watched the full match. Sakkari was very nervous and made many errors and easily gave the match away.
@@dontennis2260 I'm telling you the amount of unforced really poor errors no first serve whatsover. I was surprised when I watched it.. emma won 6 1 without doing much at all.. sakkari fluffed nearly every key moment
@@daenbrown830 Here we go again......
Looking at Emma's groundstroke production, it really reminds me of Li Na's hitting style. She really looks up to her idol a lot.
they are really similar, but Emma is more powerful than Lina
Yup
Her Romanian ground strokes like halep is amazing
@@wilson0347 definitely see even more pace as she gets older and puts on more muscle.
@@wilson0347 nah li na had a way stronger forehand and better backhand than raducanu has. Emma has stronger returns but for sure not groundstrokes in general
Can we please start getting full matches again? 🤗
I watched all 10 of her matches, on Amazon Prime. Being a Brit, I am so proud of her.
Yes please, i also want to watch the full match
full match is available for download on thepiratebay
Full match is available in this channel
She doesn't grunt. She just smiles.
Keep em coming, can't get enough of this girl. Never knew tennis could be so fun to watch 😁
Love watching women's tennis. There is a lot more subtlety and variety to the game. Been watching Emma for a little while now, and she play a bit like Andy Murray, prepared to run down every ball and never appears off balance. Love that beautiful smile too, no wonder young people clamored to have pictures taken at the end of her matches. So very authentic and totally focused. Hope thousands of young girls take to the courts and follow in Emma's footprints. Tennis really can be this joyous. Sublime. Life will change now but I hope you will still be accessible. Oh the joy of tennis. I'm with you all the way Emma. Fabulous. Love everything about this young star.
Don't know there's a big federer liking to her game tbh in some parts.
I have also become a huge fan of Emma. She is what's right with tennis.
So much fun to watch again and again.
Much like Giorgi, Sakkari relies on her hard hitting a bit too much. I think Sakkari is dangerous but it can be a bit predictable. Hope to see Sakkari mix some more variety in there
Did anyone notice weird let noise when they served? It sounds the ball is clipping the net, for some reason.
I thought exactly the same
Yes and it drove me mad
I thought I was the only one, it was making me mad too
It's the sound of the player's feet landing after serving.
I noticed that as well - I think it was the racquets hitting the deck - was happening in the final too, but not necessarily all the time.
I watching all of her matches in extended highlights. She is quite a performer
She hits the ball with such precision to the lines that it makes it so awkward for her opponents to reach! Federer is the king at that so maybe she has been watching him.
He is Emma's favourite male player. If Federer becomes her coach at any time, Emma will become a huge legend. That's her strength - precision on her groundstrokes. destructive down both sides and any weakness on her serve is more than compensated by her overall movement around the court. I notice she doesn't use the drop shot or lob much in her matches.
@@stevephillips6309 She doesn't need to use the lob tbh but it will definitely come in handy! Probably should get some pointers from Andy murray he's not to shabby at that particular skill.
@@stevephillips6309 Yes, she's stated she wants to add more variety to her game, hence the search for a new coach I guess.
And no Loud Grunting
Pure talent… Go Girl
The new it girl, talent and beauty
And no shrieking/squealing/grunting - what a bonus (Leylah the same).
She reminds me Evonne Goolagong. Court movement, passing shots, mental game. She has a bright future if she can stay focused, so difficult in today's social media crush.
A new superstar is born
Tennis is not only muscles and great strenght. This is a smarter game. Bravo Emma!!!
Two-handed backhands don't get any prettier than Raducanu's, and what a weapon it is!
pretty big windup, tho.
@@boke75 that’s not necessarily a bad thing.. 🤔
@@crazycatpetera1404 Not necessarily but another player (retired recently) Julia Goerges had a similar 2-handed backhand windup. When Goerges was “on”, the backhand was beautiful, accurate and deadly. Problem was, it was fine for a match or 2 but as soon as she faced a power player, she’d have a bit less time for her huge windup and consequently break down her backhand.
@@boke75 well she was “on” for 10 matches in a row without dropping a set so.. when’s the last time Giorgi did that? 😂
Simply wonderful.
Commentators keep comparing her to Li Na but she’s more similar to Agassi I feel like. Takes the ball super early of both sides.
It's because she's composed.
@@edwinfcapidos maybe her Asian heritage and skin color too.
She’s said Li Na is one of her inspirations so that’s probably why that was brought up. I haven’t seen enough of Li Na but people have said some of her movements are similar. Like her forehand.
Yes perhaps but I see something of Hingis in her intelligent play and also in her composure and ability to play the big points well
FYI, Li Na said Agassi is the player she admire and had a lot of influence from the game he play.
Sakkari thinks the louder she screams the harder she hits the ball and intimidates her opponents which is nonsense.
Serena and sharapove same thing
@@b.h.7423 svitolina aswel, embarassing
@@redwoodtrees7068 WTA needs line in the sand between grunting and screeching. Grunting everyone does, sreeching is taunting, intimidation, should never have been permitted. She me where Chris Evert screeched.
@@b.h.7423 no Serena won 23 slams with an unbelievable serve amazing return game and ability to change the game plan when plan A isn't working
@@chillguy102 SW “goat” of how not to carry yourself as a champion!
Delightful to watch from beginning to end~
comes from quallies to nearly bagel one of the world's best .. wot the eff!
Sakkari was a bundle of nerves, never found her game… Great match play from Emma though! Would love to see these two play each other when both were at their best
Every opponent she faced said the same thing about never founding their game, not playing well etc… coincidence? I don’t think so :)
It's hard to find your A game when you are constantly on the back-foot, that's often down to your opponent who put you there.
That is because Emma reads Sakkari's game well and placed shots where she least expected it. Had Emma palyed into Sakkari's game, she would have been overpowered after a few rallies. That was exactly what Emma did: keeping Sakkari on the edge, keeping her moving around instead of hurling shots at each other from the same spot.
@@MrTajmania Dude...come on. The video starts off with Sakkari firing wild forehands on multiple break points, outside of one backhand winner Emma did nothing to cause those misses. That was a microcosm of Sakkari in this match.
It doesn't take away from Emma's tournament to say that Sakkari never really showed up in the semi final.
@@MegaTobins696 bro look at Sorribes Tores, she’d just beaten Ash Barty a few weeks back, Emma dismantled her, made countless unforced errors, struggled in every service game, almost got double bageled! It’s Emma’s ability to continue to apply pressure at the right times. It’s the ability to return every serve regardless whether it’s first or second, and with interest. Her mental strength to forget the point she’s played and focus on the next one. She did that to everyone she played, dismantled Rogers who’d just beaten Ash Barty, dismantled Bencic Olympic champ, ripped apart Sakkari most in-form player this year & then dominates the final against someone who beat Kerber & Osaka. It is absolutely extraordinary what she achieved and I don’t think you can say that Sakkari’s poor performance was the reason she lost, just like with all the others she beat. Can they all re-think their game plan and beat Raducanu, of course, but please give all credit to Emma for playing the player in every round, playing in the moment, and doing what was necessary to win in one of the greatest sporting achievements in the history of sport.
I'm 17. You're 19. You're an inspiration.
Thanks for making Britain proud 🇬🇧🇬🇧
What a year for Great Britain 🇬🇧
Emma is 18.
Yea,yea... also us, with romanian roots 🇷🇴🇷🇴🇷🇴
Cann't wait for the British media to disown her once she starts losing.
@@vincentsong1355 you want her to lose? Because you’re saying delusional stuff like “can’t wait.” What’s your problem
@@vincentsong1355 The British media will stand behind her regardless if she wins or loses.
Great match from Raducanu!
I always root for non grunting player.
Ppl who make hating grunting their entire tennis personality 🙄
@@fans-ed1td Some of us don't like watching with the sound off.
This trend with the men or women should never have been allowed to continue. Weak world tennis association to blame.
@@robbie_ the sound off? Grow up please.
@@fans-ed1td Why don't you just bore off?
Wow, very high level match. It's a noticed for the other's women's tennis player's, emma is look very dangerous stay healthy Emma ❤❤
After watching this video, what impressed me greatly is that Emma can control hitting the ball precisely, which reminds me that she is an A* math student.
Maths mechanics coming in handy.
they don't have time for school, probably home school.
@@majestytd ...she went to a normal day school in her hometown Bromley, and did her A-Levels ( entrance exam to Uni, in the UK ) and got As for Maths and Economics, a few months back. She did not go to any of those fancy 'tennis academy' in Spain or Florida, just the Tennis Club near her home.
Its rare for professional sport or a tennis player to have both biceps and brain.
@@majestytd she took her exams 3 wks before wimbledon
I'm really hoping emma becomes consistent. It's so rare these days to find a talented girl who does not grunt with a nice game
Jesus if only you know what she's become 🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️
Who else is coming back to watch it again today? :)
US OPEN 21 is already the best Grand Slam of the year! And it keeps getting better! THANKS for the extended cuts! We don't even mind closer court-side viewpoint games, never-seen changeover scenes due to commercials, or crowd/commentators' reactions. You guys just make us wanna book our US Open 22 already! You guys are truly THE 21st CENTURY GRAND SLAM. The 21st Century Grand Slam with 21st Century Born Stars! (players born after year 2000).
This young lady has put everyone on notice and her timing could not have come at a better time. There will be some great matches ahead and looking forward to the WTA.
Cool...smart...patient...power...focus : splendid Emma
Outstanding! 🎾
Sakari fought really hard but emma can break it easily...it must be really upset sakari
What A Girl, She Is Just So Beautiful
So I did watch this match and boy when I saw Emma hammer Sakkari the way she did caught my eye, I was like... Woah this girl is no joke...
We need a video of Emma's top-10 points at the tournament. Let's make it top-20? top-30?? Put them all in one clip please, I'm ready to watch her points all day
It’s there already
Find it funny how Sakkari grunts/yells for the regular groundstrokes but then is completely silent when she's stretched out or pulled to the net.
Looks like the Greek girl knew who was best & it certainly wasnt her or her Karkie Skirt. Although confess l did like that. The English lass has Champion written all over her game. With that serve she will win a ton of Big Tournements - mentally she reminds me of Chris Evert, what more need be said.
She’s so beautiful and talented
All these girls will now come for leylah and emma !!!
I HER REACTION WHEN SHE WON stunned disbelief
4:20 : "If Sakkuri looses this set 6-0 we can then talk about the benefits for her" (what a crazy thing to say)- the commentary box really was struggling to procees that Radicanu was making history!!
Yeah, I would have loved to hear what the benefits were, unless she meant just get the first set done and over with and save your energy for the 2nd set.
Chanda Rubin ? Even Carillo was in disbelief at that one, lol.
Some did deliberatly let go a set and just go for draining opponent's stamina, but this is not what Sakkari's doing here
@@Skypeaful yes, but to deliberately give us a set 6-0 - in a US open quarters.....amazed it even crossed their minds...
full match please ..
Mantap☺🙏
Superrr Emma
Even though the players are much younger now the level is still up there
Can we turn up the commentary track a lil plz!
Wimbledon then this, the girls improving at a rate of knots seldom seen.
Emmazing !!
Sakkari made too way errors early, Raducanu smelled the weakness and was ruthless in finishing her off
I want to l know why Adidas thought Peach top with camo skirt was a viable idea?
Yeah, it's disgusting isn't it?!
Subliminal messaging for propaganda purposes.
@@ShahidKhan-ke8fe
"pink" also represent the color of raw flesh. The "camo" represent the Military.
who else agrees emma is way better than than everyone! she is GOAT in this tournament!
"Goat in this tournament" is an oxymoron
@@johnman9386 lol, basically it means "Greatest of all time in this tournament", which absolutely makes no sense 😂
Well she had to be better than everyone else to win... It's not even something to have an opinion about, it's literally just how it is
Radicals correct !
Such inspiring tennis, such uninspired commentary (did anyone tell them history was being made or did they still think they were watching the qualifiers?)
i was blown away by how sakkari defeated her opponents going so semis.. emma and sakkari are my favorites
Blown away who? She lost
Her smile is charming
Solid fundamental girl Emma beats muscle girl Maria. Emma's all strokes and moves look just beautiful, and the two volleys are absolutely better than most in WTA.
Maria's game seems to rely on being in the middle punching power shots to force her opponent back but is weak if she gets forced to move around and play at high speed.
@@darthwiizius Disappointed Maria with what like 6, 7 full years of wta tour-level experience couldn't cope with a virutal neophyte junior-level Emma. And Maria saying the young guns absolutely took it to the veterans rings false. What, like she wasn't gunning for it, too ? Truth is, I think the new girl moves very well and maybe Maria felt pressure to go for the lines...a sure-fire way to get a bucket-load of UFE's. And sure enough both had the same # of winners but Maria had twice as many UFE's as Emma. Another Shapovalov.
@@boke75
Maria is just a muscle man player, the moment she got moved from side to side she was in trouble.
@@darthwiizius did you see the match of her against Plíšková? she can move fast enough
@@tylerdaniels9000
Likely more of an outlier, hauling all them steroid induced muscles around court for 7 rounds of a Slammer is likely a limiting factor, her lactic acid build ups must be horrendous.
Raducanu can only get BETTER! At the rate she's going, she'll be numero ono very soon! That was a mugging!
Finally
There are definite advantages living in Sounth East London during a pandemic?
Superstar
Emma is entertainer
Raducanu makes me want to play tennis again.
What a fantastic & wonderful performance. So lovely. So beautiful. Always adorable.
2:44 I can watch this all day
Every time Radacanu won, she has the look of she just believe how much better she is then her competitor! Because she is
Can’t believe
What a super girl ! What a lovely smile !
A counterpuncher - a mix of Jankovic and Dementieva but with a great serve
Er No.
@@MrTreehugger78 yes. She’s better than both of them
@@amandacerny8145 she isnt elena and jelena both better players but had much harder opponents hence why they never won slams
Makes me remember Martina Hingis..
Great video - too bad it's been re-edited from its original posting to save a minute or two...
@4:41 SSWD(still smiling while diving).......that's our girl.
The female of a young Roger Federa, The movements on court is perfect.
I LOVE this girl .This happen others?
emma's strategy is like sampras as agassi said, pete has an ability to make his opponent do less in court..her opponents were eaten alive
US Open Tennis Championships
Aggressive players dominate in best of 3. Plz change wta slams to best of 5 so we can see some mental battles and long rallies
The women players have said they are willing, but the slam organisers said they haven't got the time to fit in best of 5 games for women as well as men.
Even the delayed grunting couldn’t save Sakkari
The British fans including Virginia Wade are shocked at Emma Radicanu's feat.
Maria had a cruel tiger like expression on her as though she wanted to tear Emma apart and devour her. Didn't help her she lost anyway.
Who is the spectator woman, the camera always focus on. Do anyone know
Sakkari's mother.
No screeching no drama beautiful to watch not over muscled up great tennis hope she has a great 2022 keep working girl 💪 👏 👍
Maria had some questionable decisions here & there, one day i believe she can win big titles!
It's just emma had a perfect games even from the qualification, she was just in the zone 😅
Emma in Bruce Lee level!
watching emma its like watching luka doncic. incredible IQ!
Red is the lucky colour for Ch
