wta 2000s tennis is just better than nowadays wta tennis .
Very true they will beat iga handily.
Agreed! This generation of the WTA is just....eh. No one worth watching. Vika (maybe), but it seems she's become a shell of her former self?
@@c-tha-man9463Same with the guys. Men's tennis today is but a shadow of what it was a couple of decades ago. Today's level is laughable in comparison.
Thats why we call it the golden era of women's tennis
@@user-mk9hv8sl5p true that.
her single hander is more reliable than most ATP single handers today
more reliable than tsitsipas' thats for sure
Because women's tennis is easier
@@eddieshredder5740 skill issue
Segun tu teoria😂@@eddieshredder5740
Porque Metes a la atp pubertario??😂
These 2 usually produced incredible matches.
Henin - to my mind - she had the best single-handed backhand - just wonderful to watch.
Please, please, please share the full match, and the Henin v Sharapova AO 2008 quarter-final! These incredible matches deserve to be watched and re-watched again and again!
that's quarterfinal actually. one of the best from Sharapova
@@shaktincredible You are right, thanks, although it felt like the actual final, and it truly is one of Sharapova's finest performances. It had to be, considering Justine was Number 1 at the time, in-form, on a 32-match winning streak and already a 7-time GS champion! In all fairness, the final score does not tell the full story. On the other hand, Sharapova served bagels and breadsticks in 2008 AO like a bakery that's about to close. I would love to watch both of Justine's and Maria's full matches from that tournament, highlights would not do them justice.
I can’t believe Maria was only 18 here!
Justine henin is my most favorite women's player 👏👏👏
Sharapova ❤
it was better before
I remember Sharapova had a bad record back then going against Henin and Clijsters. But, in the US open swing she beat Clijsters for the first time to win in San diego and Henin in the US open Final.
Well, she ended her career with a pretty decent record against both. 4-5 vs Kim and 3-7 vs Justine. Also, 5 of Henin’s 7 wins over Maria came when Maria was 17 and 18. I’m sure Maria would have had an even more competitive h2h vs Henin as they were dead even outside of clay.
@@PravoslavniVitez Yes. She dominated Henin in Australian Open 2008 6-4,6-0.
Missed this seemingly ethereal beauty of a lime-green a tennis court
Sharapova the legend herself, apart from Williams sisters she's the one household name.
henin also is a legend though
@@sriv0014 yes no denying on that.
Henin >>>>
@@ItsJayYork she has no career slam, 😂🤣
@@krishnakumar2390 so what? she has more slams, more career titles, better career record, much more weeks as no. 1, olympic GOLD medal, more tour finals... hehe, and she accomplished all of it in like half the time lol, you sharapoliebers dont know how to cope
Henin has the greatest one handed backhand the game has ever seen, of men or women.
Sharapova is good-looking. Henin is beautiful.
Other way
I miss Maria.
The final point, it's for Roger 👽
Women’s tennis no longer exists at this level.
Watching Henin I understand the comparisons to Barty. But watching Barty play and watching these highlights you would think that Ash was a better player than Henin which I dont think is true. Just the change in the game and how it's played
Big fan of Barty. Peak Henin would have beaten her quite comfortably though, as she was a match for peak Serena, arguably the GOAT, and im not sure Ash was ever quite that good.
4:15, she can silent actually…she just like to be annoying
Henin🪄 Vs Sharapova💊
When the drug was completely legal and fine all the years she had taken, it's waste of time for u to mention it as bad.
@@krishnakumar2390 yes, yes, yes... haha And why couldn't Sharapova play for around 18 months?
@@user1user2user3user45 that's not funny to use hahaha in this sentence since she was paid for the mistake of not checking her email. If it was an intentional one she could have stripped off with her titles and money, do the math before using hahaha.
