@markuse3472 2 жыл бұрын

Because most people are against the overall Spanish/Latino (name). I know this as fact due to research. However, Badosa is new in the rising rankings, while Sabalenka has been in the top rankings for a while so people will recognize her more. But even as Badosa won Indian Wells, you are right: it's just about everyone else but Paula being hyped. But it does appear poor Aryna fell apart in the second set: I love her. But I do support Paula and other Spanish-named players more than others generally.

You may think Sabalenka with all power, pace, speed & finesse should easily dominate the tour. Tennis is still pretty much a mental sport. The player who can rise to the occasion, stay in the present & focus on the current point while keeping emotions in check will most certainly have higher chance of sealing a win

@uzzymuzzy4312 2 жыл бұрын

Finesse? She hasn’t got any. And you also need a brain, variety and the ability to play consistently without unforced errors . . Not only power and pace. That’s why she’s not dominating.

First set, at 4:2 Sabalenka led with a game point after great shot emphasised by a slow motion replay. Then, all of a sudden it was 4:3 as Badosa must have broken that service game. How did it happen? This was the pivotal moment of the match where Badosa turned it around. And we can't even know how that happened. Can WTA get someone know how a tennis match is played in charge of the editing?

I've commented before about the WTA's poor presentation of these highlights. Some of it I think is them avoiding showing the players' unforced errors and just bad play and shot selection. Sabalenka had 31 unforced errors, 7 double faults and only won 3 of her 8 service games. She also out and out quit in the last 4 games. You'd never know it from watching this.

@tennispredictionsandreacti130 2 жыл бұрын

Paula Badosa Gibbert in this match proved why she is WTA 1000 Indiana Wells champion. Paula Badosa is incredible. Of course Sabalenka didn't stand a chance against Badosa. Sabalenka played her best, but Badosa was simply far too much for her to handle. Paula's easy straight sets win against Sabalenka was to be expected, as Sabalenka has nothing in her play style besides her strength. Also Sabalenka is mentally weak. Aryna Sabalenka always struggles against any opponent in big tournaments. She is only capable of winning small tournaments. Paula Badosa Gibbert is capable of winning any kind of tournaments. Also Paula Badosa Gibbert under pressure plays far better than Sabalenka. And this match is clear proof of that.
