ana a.m. beautiful smile after hitting 35 unforced errors with her backhand.. very ugly errors it hurt to watch it

Yes people are Comparing her with Serena the most arrogant

Congratulations ladies for making the finals worth watching.

Naomi's net game sucks

Jeffrey Kaufmann I don’t disagree with you but if she keeps up with her physical training at the same time develop her mental fortitude, it’s only a matter of time before we see her winning streaks

Jeffrey Kaufmann I don't care . She still have chances of winning many tournaments anyway . German should stop complainning

@@summerb9173 There is still Zhuai on October 29.I hope she can win that one.

Zhuhai is not for players qualified for Singapore. It is for the 12 best players who couldn't make it to Singapore. Big names there too; Madison Keys, Sabalenka, Sevastova, Goerges etc.

Dr.Utsab Das , Kerber prefers fast surfaces also

Ya i notice the ball bounced slower .... I tot the courts are all standard by WTA ;0

Dr.Utsab Das She won Indian Wells, so slow hard court should fit her well. She's young and it's the end of the season, she'll be volatile.

Kerber is a wall and is a challenge to all aggressive players because she makes them hit more errors than usual. It seems like kerber is weaker against players who play defense like her. She has a horrible record against Svitolina, who is also a counter puncher.

I would say Osaka plays better on slower surfaces. Indian Wells and US Open were slowed down this year. I think it's just that she lacks patience against players who get all these balls back.

Woz is the golden retriever! Kerber has more offense but yeah I agree that Kerber’s defensive skills are prob better than anyone in tour. I think she deserves more credit for her offense though. Her angles, passing shots and flat winners down the line are seriously impressive and offensive. I consider her an aggressive baseliner with great offensive and defensive ability.

Nice way to put it. However I agree with the other commentator. Kerber is more than that.

@@707ladytee exactly!

she was sending all balls crosscourt.but when she was dominating kerber really had no answers! osaka will dominate after she works on down the line shots and these courts also not helping osaka

Isabella Lee literally hitting hard is what you need to do to win. how do you think she won the US Open, making to the finals at the Japan Open, semi’s in Shanghai & Beijing? by hitting soft? LMAO. she’s only 20 years old, she can improve her net game. if you actually watched this match, you can see that Kerber was making her uncomfortable by pulling her to the net on her backhand side-yet she showed some decent net skills. again, Naomi’s only 20 but she showed so much improvement from just 8 months ago...improving in such a short time span, it’s pretty easy to conclude that she’s only going to get better and thus start dominating the tour

@deepak mahajan: one of the things that naomi does really well is redirect the ball. in this match she did tend to stay in cross court rallies. i think that had a lot to do with kerber, who is very good at running down balls. so, if naomi had followed up a cross court shot with a down the line shot, there was a good chance that kerber would have been able to get to the ball. i think that naomi was trying to build the point by either hitting a sharp cross court angle, or by getting kerber so out of position that she could have gone down the line. what naomi did do was hit behind kerber, which seemed to be a more effective strategy.

So you mean you see her play many majors finals and there will struggling. I tell you the final must be one winter. And nice to admit that she will be there at many times. Champion or tuner up.

Well she backed it with 2nd slam in a row

#TeamAngie ❤

@@cloudsss35 looks like Angie is struggling for motivation currently

I really like Naomi but I agree she was being hyped a lot. I think she was also putting so much pressure on her self. Plus these slow courts. Who is/are your fav players from atp and wta? Btw, Hello Madeliena, This is Saurabh. I have a tennis group for wta and atp and I am looking to make it bigger with more members across the world. So I would like to invite you in my tennis group. It has 36 members as of now. We would love to have your participation in it. This is my number and if you are interested then pls ping me up. Anytime you wish. +918638525631. Also if you feel uncomfortable having to ping me in my number, then you can reply me back here and I will share the whatsapp group link here on youtube. Thanks!

Saurabh Chakrabarty Hi 😊 I agree with everything you’ve said. Not only is she placing pressure on herself, but the media is too. My favorite female players are Hsieh (she’s a unique geometric genius; no one hits unbelievable shots like her), Sevastova, Kerber, Stephens, Kasatkina, Sabalenka and Serena. (Henin is my favorite retired player). My favorite male players are Djokovic, Federer, Del Potro, Wawrinka, Thiem, and Goffin. If you can leave the link to your group here that would be great.

@@Madeleine- Sure. I will leave the group link here. Also I see you have so much variety with your favourites. Very interesting. Here's the link.. chat.whatsapp.com/5gTJFKFk4Cm0iw9uthugns See you there in the group. 😊

Hey, Did you get the link? Didn't see you join the group yet. Lemme know if there is any issues pls. And if you are not able to use the link to get in, you can ping me up if you want to.

deepak mahajan Osaka is crap, she overrated can’t beat a. Top ten player

@@101poumi she can. She won indain wells destroying your world number one. This courts r so slow. Anyways she is learning and at this age kerber helpless were nthng

deepak mahajan halep is useless and remeber when Halep smash Osaka in clay 6-1 6-0. She’s overrated

@@101poumi listen we have to disagree I see mutlislams champion in Osaka who is doing well against pushers in these slow courts n she will improve. Let's agree to disagree

@@deepakmahajan4978 And then Naomi becomes world #1. What a wonderful world.

She truly is! #TeamAngie ❤

Kerber like fast surface more

Defensive players are dominating everywhere that's why they're currently leading the wta

#TeamAngie ❤

She should have move up the court when she had the chance before her opponent had the chance to recover but she didn't hope learn from this mistake.

I don't even think its her having to adjust. It's moreso her being stubborn more than anything else. But I guess u can say that's one in the same

Exactly this were your net game comes into play heavy top spin

I did find that cue and also somewhat comforting in that in Osaka, there is a calm temperament to go a long way, at such a young age. Very demure, but not to be underestimated, a tigress.

... cute ...

I'm getting tired just thinking about all the running that's going to happen

deepak mahajan Australia courts are fast but Kerber and halep and Wozniacki love that court

If stephens beats kerber and osaka win in 2 sets, osaka quilifies for semifinals

She should try to emulate Sharapova or Pliskova?!?!? When was the last time either of them won a major grand slam? LOL. There are many others she can emulate, or she can just continue being herself while improving her game.

TheTruthseeker1970 You obviously didn’t read my comment right, I meant emulate their attitude, Maria is the most focus player, she’s never smashes a racquet before and I’m sure you’ve heard the name pliskobot, I’m sure any player would like to have an attitude like Maria or Karolina because they are so cool and calm and that’s why Maria has won the slams she has won today. I didn’t say Osaka had to copy them, but looking up to a more experienced player other than Serena could help her because Serena is not a perfect tennis player and none of them are, but you can pick and choose parts if different players games to emulate and if your looking to emulate someone with good mind set Sharapova and Pliskova are the pinnacle of WTA.

#TeamAngie ❤ Experience always helps!

she lost two in a row shes out

Because of Stephen's victory, she gets another shot.

especially that last point she miss i mean how do u miss that?

She’s not out yet, has to beat Kiki Bergen’s

Harun NGA play any type of tennis competitively and you’ll understand. Whether it be hesitation, or nervousness, or just simply an error, there are several way that ANY player could miss that shot.

GS champ mate. she is a GS champ.

But unlike Ostapenko, Halep, Sloane, etc she is something else, isn't she?

AnteDiluvian Lol

She played well. I loved her display of emotion. Made the loss easier to swallow. What a match.

At the age of 20 what did kerber achieve in tennis?

... and how do you know that ?

i don't think that it was anything personal, it just looked like naomi didn't expect that move.

@@binkyxz3 open your eyes and look!

@@paperwait9611 Yeah... she wasn't expecting it or didn't care to kiss her.

If we can all tell, why are🎾 posting about it?😎 Troll on 🛴

She was playing the top seed. She is number 4 and Angie is number 2. A narrow win for Kerber the expected result.

@seun osewa: i tend to agree with you. that said, naomi could have won this match but she hit unforced errors at some really bad times. part of that was probably due to nerves and lack of experience. naomi showed a lot of improvement over her first game with respect to not giving up and continuing to battle. she also controlled her emotions better in this match, as well. naomi is still an improving player and she is currently ranked #4. in this match, and even in a loss, you saw flashes that make you look forward to next season.

Arent we all

I think you're speaking to everyone who is in a GRAND SLAM FINAL. Anyone will go the extra mile to win regardless if it's Serena on the other side of the court. And you're right, she has not won a tournament after the US open, but did you even bother checking her results? Final in Japan, Quarters in China. And quick tip, after winning the US open, Sloane did not win any matches in Asia. Garbiñe and Angelique had a much harder time dealing with tournaments after they won their maiden ones as well.

I totally agree with your comment she really wanted to beat Serena she said so..... she put every bit of her power in to beating Serena mentally and physically but for some reason she can't find the strength to beat other top players..... go back to her interviews and listen the only person she's really concerned about beating was Serena! She mastered that but what's next......

@samuel williams: i think that your comment is wrong on several levels. first of all, naomi was dialed in during the US open. she went through the draw like a wrecking ball. her toughest match was actually the 4th round match against aryna sebalenka, where naomi was not only playing against sebalanka, but against the psychological barrier of getting past the 4th round. next, contrary to your attempt to reflect naomi's results in a negative light, she has actually had good results since winning the US open. she has been, as a matter of habit, getting deep into tournaments on a more consistent basis. the pressure on naomi has been much greater than the pressure that was on sloane after sloane won the US open. naomi has become an international celebrity outside of the world of tennis. yet, she is still producing good results. it is just hard to reasonably find negatives in what naomi is doing. but it does appear that you are trying your best!

@seba galindo its easy to make negative comments without understanding , the court s very slow for osakas style , she still fought very well against such strong defense of kerber , stop being nasty

Serena fan detected.

The new sensation is Coco Gauff or Whitney Osuigwe in 3 to 5 years.

Osaka..easy

Showing frustration was not the problem with Serena. Her intent to win every match and her obvious disappointment when she fails is one of the things people love about Serena. Just don’t break the rules. Also, I think Osaka always understood Serena’s frustration. Every tennis player does.

Kelvin Thurston there’s only one Serena

Naomi's gonna be naomi. Shes not trying to be anyone else but herself. If she achieves as much as the GOAT that would be great buts she would do so with her own game and determination.

kelvin everyone wants to be like serena but u know the real serena.

yes, only one serena. naomi does not assault umpire

both played well. i have been cheering on osaka before the USopen! i will agree with u on the fact that serena over reacted but it's not only her! and it's not the first time.

Tell that to her 3 grand slams mate
