The Spartan vs the Amazon...hell of a match.
Guadalajara is one of the best crowd that's for sure
I totally agree! I don't think I've ever witnessed a more friendly/polite crowd than Guadalajara. In every match it seems the crowd all cheer and support BOTH players!
I was there, and the crowd was amazing
That was one hell of a power packed match. Both Sabalenka and Sakkari hitting the ball so hard and with such deep accuracy. But then again, Sakkari is a beast and will be hard to get past her.
Maria's turned into a little powerhouse; she was really pinning Sabalenka back with some of those shots. Great athleticism and movement around the court too.
It’s pleasing to the eyes to watch these two hard hitters. They look like they could beat other players with their powerful strokes but when they play against baseline grinders like Bardosa or Kontaveit they might lose.
@@tehatte You should add also Ashley Barty
Happy for Sakkari, good luck in semifinals 😊greetings from Poland 🇵🇱✌🏻
This year’s final is the best in many years. There are so many 3 set matches, nobody retires, everyone seems so active on court and showing great fighting spirit.
womens is it because berenttni had retire mens and who retired at wta finals recently
@@nultyjack8219 bencic, andreescu, osaka, etc
Such a great match. Both ladies had an amazing year and finished it off with career highs. Their time is coming and I know they’ll finally have their slam soon. Good luck in 2022 ladies!
These two powerhouses going at each other was just incredible..one of the best matches this finals
Only two words: tremendous Sakkari!!!
Sakkari had a lot more in the tank in the third set and Sabalenka incurred way too many double faults. Great match!
Sakkari has incredible stamina. The same happened in the US Open against Bianca Andreescu, in the 3rd set Sakkari looked just as fresh as she had just started the match while Andreescu was almost fainting out of exhaustion.
As a person that was there sabalenka was pissed off and since that she start loosing
@@alexito9981 Estuviste ahí en la cancha en vivo? so cool! Y por qué Sabalenka se empezó a molestar? Por algo que hubo o por su propio juego que no le salía?
Aryna needs to lose some weight she clearly not in shape.
What an appalling highlights video, it goes from 3-1 30-40 Sabalenka to 5-3 40-0 match point to Sakkari. That's atrocious.
Yes I was watching and thought no this cannot be, then 0 - 40.......where is the other highlights 😔😔😔😔
Agree!!!!! 🤨🤨🤨
disgraceful highlights package!!!!
that's because half of those games were just lost on double-faulting
I wish the WTA would develop a streaming service like the ATP. I’d love to watch full matches here in the US, but I’m not willing to pay for one-size-fits-all cable service.
Can’t wait for the Australian Open to see these wonderful players in action again 🎾🇦🇺🎾
So happy for Maria, she is an outstanding fighter and very clever! Love your style so much, my dear Maria! You deserve all the Best 🙏🤗
Guadalajara fans are great.. they support both of the player...🥰
I couldn't be more proud, Maria!
Sakkari is a beast on game mode ! An improved mental game ! Love her game and athleticism on court !
Imagine this match played on indoor, must be like watching cinema with a lot of echo: aaah, eeh, aaah..
Pretty damn noisy!!!!
😅😅😅
What is your probleme ... turned down the volume
@@charalamposvamvoukas5436 arrrrrghgh arrrghgh ragfghghfhhhh yeowwwwwe
Guadalajara crowd is awesome
Man. This match was waaaaaaaay better than I expected. What a wonderful battle. Heck of an ending.
Maria is better in controlling nerves than Aryna. The unforced errors count in this match prove that point.
the sakkattack!!!!
Bravo Sakkari, with love from Greece!!
What a wild match! An absolute treat to watch! The power, the angles, everything was on another level. Sabalenka needs to really improve her UEs; like she literally did 19 double faults in the match. Happy that Maria won, she deserves this!
And 56 ue's like WTF?! The third set was all over the place, Maria won it despite hitting just 2 winners.
Maria played horrible
The match was bad quality .
I think that’s the price of strong/risky serves, her serves are like bullets, probably one of the hardest serves to return in the women tournament, she relies on them to get quick points but it comes with a cost
Guadalajara is proving to be the best tournament of the year! Cheers.
Congratulations to both Maria and Aryna! Interesting that the H2H is 4-1 for Sakkari, since Sabalenka has peaked earlier, but still, these two are the new power-players of the new and fresh generation. More than anything, I like their sportmanship (because I was really tired of all the catfights in the past generation).
Congratulations to both Aryna and Maria. Outstanding match. I wanted Aryna to win, but I di like both of them and I love tennis.
MAJOR mazel tov to the city of Guadalajara for stepping in last minute and being tremendous hosts. I really think they're making a case to either keep this tournament here, or to get a major tournament in Mexico. The fans have been A-1 every match. Darren Cahill said this is the type of reception the top players deserve and I couldn't agree more. This has been an absolute joy.
Both of these ladies I enjoy immensely. But Truly enjoy watching Maria grow within her game and winning through her hard work in each of her tournament (and not fumbling with her clothes 😂).
One of the best womens matches I've seen all year!
Greek powerhouse in Mexico 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 welcome 🤗
This match is what I was expecting the U.S Open final to be. Great match.
Sakkattack! 🔥
stamina has won. that was a best match i have ever seen(wta) after indian wells final
You need to start watching more tennis then.
Lmao this was such bad quality tennis
@@markuse3472 how many times you saw tie break on wta in last 3 months between 2 high rank player? even us open final was bad than this game. so many matches ending with 2-0 score
@@emiryenere2704 that shows the dominance of emma raducanu
@@emiryenere2704 You said "ever," so, you do need to watch more tennis matches.
Awesome match!! Excellent tennis by both the players. Congratulations Sakkari 👍🏻👍🏻
I love Sakkari now! Discovered her soft spots this year, feisty on court but sweet off court so I became a fan! I also love Sabalenka btw.
Sakkari deserves all the good that comes her way, as she is a great scrapper. Sabalenka needs to 1. spend less time screaming and 2.Try something other than trying to kill the ball every 2nd stroke.
Play a little more tennis actually ? 🤷🏼😄🙃
I thought the childish comments about screaming would be absent after this great match. Frankly I find it ridiculous that you would criticise Sabalenka for screaming when Sakkari also screams. It was a fantastic match, why not focus on that instead of hating individual tennis players?
dearm ron watts, sakkari is not a fighter, and dont say anithing about sabalenka's game, because she has won 4 of 6 games she played. and she baggeled in doha 2020. boom btch, good afternoon
@@inmaculadavalverderey5253 arrrrrrrghh arrrrrgh arrrrrgh you're obviously a fan can you tell me what she is saying.
@@bganonimouse2754 This forum is not strictly about a tennis player's performance (never has been). It is about tennis in general terms. The childish comments? you are aware that the WTA has struggled (the idea of brining in sound meters regularly pop up)with screamers since the time of Monica Seles...There is a place in all sports for grunts/groans but Sabalenka often goes well and above, a grunt/groan. (yes I found Sakkari a bit loud this match too
How can you go from 3-1 Sabalenka to match point Sakkari and not show anything in between? Great atmosphere anyway.
The Best match of the tournament AND the Best of the year
2021 wta finals is one of the best ever
Great crowds!
what a wonderful game! I love both of players
Μπράβο Μαρία μας!!!!!♥️♥️♥️♥️
Super sakari
Wow, qué torneo tan espectacular nos regala Guadalajara, de lo mejor del año sin duda alguna.
Many credits to Sakkhari for breaking sabalenka twice in the second and third set and come to win at the end. How a good a player strong mental capacity she has developed
Sakkari is the fittest one in WTA
can't waiting for the Australian Open to see these people they are so amazing players in action again????
Wow this was an incredible game!!!
Anett's coach watching the match in the stands: 🤣🤣🤣🤣 keep fighting Sabalenka should play all these end-of-year challenges to know how to server again, almost 50dfs in 3 matches, I've never seen this before in 10 years and I'm not talking about the unforced errors, certainly she gave more than 100 free points.
😂😂 u funny
Alan Costa Are you sure it wasn't 100 DFs and 1000U UEs?
Well done to both, terrific match👏👏
Bravo María!!!
ARYNA SABALANKA CHAMPIONNE FOR EVER ARYNA SABALANKA THE BEST PLAYER WE LOVE YOU ARYNA YOU ARE MY FAVORITE BRAVOOOO GO GO 💪💪💪👌👌👌👍👍👍❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
The Greek Goddess powers through
Looks like an MMA fighter out there
has the DNA of your spartan he shouts because he has the DNA of a Greek
Super Sakkari's sensational Spartan spirit stuns seriously skilled Sabalenka.
What an alliteration!
Bravo Maria Bravo.
if sabalenka learns too close games under pressure and serve well in clutch moments she will be unbeatable .. great match tho 🔥🔥
In final set only in 10 seconds score from 1-3 becomes 5-3 with setpoint 😂😂😂😂sakkari magic!!she lookks like body builder!!😍😘muscles my god.
I wish the WTA would develop a streaming service like the ATP. I’d love to watch full matches here in the US, but I’m not willing to pay for one-size-fits-all cable service.
During the Off season, Sabalenka needs to work on her strength and stamina. She relies heavy on her serve. The serve becomes a problem when you get into too many long rallies. She double faults a lot because there is no more strength in her knees and legs.
I was shocked an amazed at Sabalenka's playing.
Kontaveit vs. Badosa definitely will be finalists. But my heart and still hope Sakkari into final against Badosa.
I bet on Muguruza vs Sakkari.
Sakkari always choke on semis finals
@@asya4750 BRAVO ARKADAS.SENIN TILKI..FORZA HELLAS.
@@gogomass247 Sabalenka is my favorite, but she deserve to lose with her own faults. Sakkari, who is my second favorite player, used this opportunity well, fought until the end and got what she needs well deserved. I hope she'll be the champion! Greetings to Greece!
@@asya4750 NO CHANCE FOR GREEKS PLAYERS,MAYBE BEFORE 20 YEARS.NOW NO.LOOK DEEPER.
Maria is a beast here. Can't wait for her match against Anett!!!
She doesn't stand a chance against Anett Kontaveit if she will play like she did today.
Yes, there will be blood on the dancefloor...
I'm excited 😄 even though I like both of them😍
GOOD LUCK, ANETT KONTAVEIT! YOU HAVE AN AURA!
I wish sakkari still have left something to offer against kontaveit.
Not at all..kontaveit is a cool player..she will crush sakkari!!
What a match it was!
Wow Maria 1-3 down and win in the end....
Арина, сражалась-это главное качество чемпиона!!!
Great match.
i didn’t knew sakkari served this good .iam so impressed by her
Chaos of WTA.. !!
Probably the most intense game of 2021. Both are awesome but Sakkari prevails. Congrats!
"Sakkri's sensational Spartan spirit emerges once more" Very nice summary mr Commentator!
What a match just wow♥️
Compliments to both ladies, excellent match. Sabalenka was up 3-1 in the 3rd and all of a sudden she was down 3-5. I think we needed to see some of the points in there but a very good video. Someone has to teach Sabalenka to not get so down, let it go, focus on the next point.
Awesome. Good job
Maria numéro un 1 mondial la année prochaine 2022 !!! Vive la GRANDE GRÈCE !!!et vive la CRÊTE
I believe Aryna's 19 double faults (!) matches Cori Gauff's tally from a few years back. Ouch. Well done Maria 👊
At least Coco can make the excuse that she was only 16 with little experience. Sabalenka has no excuses for making this many double faults at this stage of her carrer... I mean, 42 double faults and 129 unforced errors in 3 matches?! That's horrible for a player who's the world #2...
They're both grunts and very intimidating in the court, while very sweet and humble in their press and interview
I wish Wta would go back to top 16 for wta finals
너무 잘한다 둘다~~
Waah. I missed this match coz I had to work. Happy to see Sakkari made it through. Was it as good as her match with Andreescu from the US Open?
no, sakkari andreescu was better imo
@@santiagocalderon3261 Thanks. Some comments here say both players had lots of mistakes so my benchmark of a great match still stands.
@@sadie513 yeah, this was a long match but not of the highest quality I would say
Great play right there ladies!🙌🤔👏👍
Ух,молодец Саккари!
Partidazo ✨👌✨
Major choke by Sabalenka at the end of the match. 4 double faults and unforced multiple unforced errors in the last two gam4s. Sakkari even said in the post match interview she was a little lucky.
Minus high altitude stress for players Guadalajara tennis fans rock!
I love you Maria!!!! Good luck in the semis.
Brave tutte e due ....Partitona 🔥✌️💚
Wow what a match …hitting harder than the men
По рейтингу и по мастерству Соболенко выше всех, но этого мало в теннисе, нужен еще и характер , и хотя бы везение, которых у нее нет
Bravo Maria Sakkari 👏👏👍
Anett - Sakkari , Badosa - Muguruza. Good match
Incredible that Maria could take the first, almost coming back in the second. What a match.
Sakkari I love you❤️
Que Orgullo Es Ser TAPATÍO y Haber Tenido A las Mejores 8 TENISTAS DEL MUNDO MUNDIAL🙏👍🤗💙🤩🥇, Por Cierto , MUGURUZA LA MEJOR🙏👍🏆
It's Queen Maria vs Queen Anett 😊 next!
Iskry sypały się gęsto!. Bravo Maria
El partido del año?
Красава!!!
Wonderful hitting but the shouting just gives me headache.. Way over the top. Such a shame cause it was a great match
Powerhouse hitter….grunts included 😏💪🏼
Congrats Maria. Such a fighter. As for Aryna, you can rarely win a best of 3 sets match with 19 double faults.
dear terence wong, you dont get to critique sabalenka because 1. you are not at her level, (as far as i know you are not THE NUMBER 1) and 2. and she won sakkari 4 times. good morning
@@inmaculadavalverderey5253 Thanks for your hilarious comments. But I honestly don’t think I criticised her. I just made a neutral statement when I said it’s rare for someone to win a best of 3 sets match with 19 double faults. Your logic seems to suggest that anyone who isn’t a number 1 player cannot make any non-positive comments on Barty or Djokovic.
@@terencewong4687 19 double faults is amateur night! However she got so close with that horrible result! So she needs that stroke improved and i think she may need to be in better fitness , so not having 19 DF!,,, she is a very good player !
