Ikr

Shut up !

Amen to that! I hate screaming players like Collins, Sabalenka and the likes…

Yes, I agree.

Her poise reminds me of Roger Federer

Great mental strenght and has all fondamentals

agree. no girl. not even this decade's serena has that kind of mental fortitude. she never yells. doesnt wven bash rackets

@@krdfl87 agreeee

I've always said let's give her time, Iga is really special from her strokes down to her movement and down to her tennis IQ

Lol. That's an excuse. She trashed everyone at RG,

She is twenty. Helluva beautiful game on clay.

I think her title in Paris was thanks to the conditions that fit her though. Her powerful play isn’t that effective when it’s warm and the balls aren’t so heavy. I hope she can pullt it together and beat the top players again and not be the next ostapenko

@@larbil26 true. Also it was really cold there, she is used to such weather

Agree. These two and Osaka are great representation of women tennis. Hope they continue to be at the top.

@@dtv2031 They're the most quiet players of the tournament.

@@hank4920 That’s really good. No torture to the ears.

Where are all the Polish fanboys that normally show up after Iga wins? I do not like Swiatek anymore only because of these morons.

@@derstolperjochen1719 We are here, respectfully letting Ash shine, as she should after her win 🤗

her variety. Love watching Barty!!

This comment didn't age well.

Perfectly agree

That's why she's world number one!!🌏🥇🇦🇺🎾

MENTALLY. you can say that again. most if not all wouldve wilted from swiateks lasers. im looking at you former queen halep. lol

Yep, with each match she wins she gets stronger. People question her legitimacy for being No. 1. Hope she can prove them wrong with another GS title. Osaka has been dynamic and powerful on the hard courts but has been less consistent when she's away from her favourite surface.

@@psifoo Osaka is just a hard court bully...nothing special about her.....After serena and kvitova, Barty is the only current WTA player to have won titles on all three Surfaces (Hard, clay, Grass).

Чего же ей не достает?

Iga was great too.

Barty is really proving that she's World Number 1! Damn!

Really niceeeee Iga!! You are a sweet person and great player 2 :* Just a matter of time we spot you in top-10 WTP ratings. Well done :) Congrats for both players!

@@shaukahodan2373 there she is number 9 in the world 🤍

She's so professional.

Very well said!!!

I agree! I wish she would come back, but I don't think that will happen.

The thing I love most about Ash is her tennis. Incredible stuff.

Agreed. The harder you get your a** kicked the greater the lesson. She may also benefit by replacing her current sports psychologist.

I don't think she got a bad hiding today, with Muguruza and Konjuh yeah that was kind bad but I agree, she needs to be tested against the best

@@demigod1013 Ass kicked? Hard? Who? Pliskova? Now, that is ASS KICK and hard.

Those games against Ash payed off nicely for Iga. Such a shame for tennis Barty decided to retire so early.

Yes... almost SERENE...and so unlike ... :D:D we know who, right?

@@nick_czem_nick656 I know Serena will get the most attention because she's one of the GOATs. But let's be honest, Serena was nowhere near the worst in terms if grunting. Sharapova and Azarenka were worse. There are other players who grunted even during drop shots 😂

She can hit flat aswell

Definitely Ashley is as cool and calm as she can be under immense pressure from an incredibly talented youngster.

I don't see her as consistent. She should have a lot more grand slams by now considering her position. She's just happens to be the best player during this power vacuum in women's tennis.

@@monica012077 3 grand slams now

@@dundalis She's a weak era champ. Couldn't handle the heat during the Serena Williams/Sharapova years. She had to stick to doubles until the greats were past their prime.

@@monica012077 That's just such a bunch of crap.

Time will tell on that prediction but a great match from two great players.

Iga appears to be so arrogant and annoying!? Like a spoilt brat. If she won a gs @ 19 she thinks she can conquer world. Same happened 2 bianca!

@@kamipersonal2687 Have you ever met her personally? She's super humble, kind and lovely. What's more, she always smiles during handshake with the opponent

@@kamipersonal2687 Where does that come from? She's unfailingly gracious to other players. I guess you have chosen to see what you want to see instead of what's in front of you

@@kamipersonal2687 I have not noticed that trait with Iga but Andreescu spot on. As Kerber said at the time to much criticism "The greatest drama Queen of all time"!

Congratulations to Ash!!! Iga always with you. Good match, your time will come.

Your totally spot on matey 👌🏽 on court she looks very average but she is a true champion

Nicely put

What does a number 1 player look like?

Well having a primary slice BH isn't ideal in today's tennis. Steffi Graf played with a slice BH in her era and I could not imagine anybody excelling with that In this era!! Amazing. The men's though it would Definitely be impossible. Steffi and Ash both #1 seeds which Is incredible

@@nathaliethomas9719 some one who plays with an all or nothing mentality no fear whatsoever someone Who can bounce back when losing afew games , that’s what makes someone number 1 and that’s ash Barty

I think the same.

If she doesn.t watch out her physique is gonna give!! Last year she played next 2 none.this year.on a roll! Hmmm...

Barty Party Wagon!

yeah her coach is ex bad player, now the question is if it's not only exceptional Iga's talent who allowed to win 2 tournaments, regres/no progress is worrying

@@besty7 Her coach wasn't really a pro player - he skipped this stage, very quickly became sparring partner and then Iga's secondary coach - he's her main coach for four years or so.

Iga moves beautifully on clay and strikes a heavy ball, but the serve really does need some work. Hopefully it's something she'll improve moving forward.

Not easy to change a service action. A critical coaching responsibility at young age and thats not 19.

I don't think the serve is at all bad, she probably has one of the heaviest kick serves out there and a good first serve but it's just staying tight behind her serve that's the problem because she has really good returns. I say this because she can win 6-1 and the one being a break so the moment she tightens her service games then she'll probably be one of the greatest of the decade because she has everything else

You mean "use"....?

Wouldn't it be awesome to see them battle it out at the French Open finals..

Yes, indeed

i think her mental game. thats the key elemnt that Ash barty has. kinda similar to osaka except it gets to naomi during bad days

@@jnid1758 I agree, hopefully she'll improve it! I like Barty a lot also, both of them are inspirational!

I don't wanna bank on this but Iga is a different beast at grand slams also, I just hope she works on getting tight on her service games and she'll surely be able to defend her RG title because she's gifted in almost all parts of her game

@@jasonchigaazira862 sure

Same, especially after Iga's win in Rome.

Yeah. Its frustrating when highlights do that. Lack of objectivity. Happened to halep.too...a lot! 🤫

Swiatek did hit more winners

@@danielgeorgetheoneandonly She must have hit more unforced errors too?

@@psifoo she probably did but you're also forgetting the match was won by just a break in each set which is incredibly close, I didn't get the chance to watch it but I can bet you it wasn't easy on Barty's part because Iga does go after her opponents

@@danielgeorgetheoneandonly She only hit 2 more winners than Barty though? If I remember correctly Ash hit 20 while Iga hit 22

Święte słowa! :)

myślę, że w tej chwili Iga wygrywałaby z Barty. Zdobyła już doświadczenie i jest mocniejsza fizycznie. A technikę i finezję posiada nadal ;) W sensie Iga.

Great rivalry of the future this!

Barty will make her fall over...serena struggles against variety.

@@user-be5qg7mr1s I actually think Barty would struggle against Serena - I know she's not the fastest player anymore but she has the kind of power and shots to hit through Barty, and mentally I think is even tougher

@@11liamk1 I mean she can if the opportunity presents itself. Barty is more like Justine Henin or modern day graf.

@@11liamk1 barty lost 2 serena before, but i think she improved more these days. If only she could keep fit the deeper she goes in every tourney. Ash shd watch out overuse!

@@user-be5qg7mr1s Serena beat Barty on clay in 2018. Now a lot has changed: Barty is no.1 and Serena is more fit... Could be close. Definitely not as simple as you think.

now she was no 1 ..unbelievable

U hv some good points in your argument, but... the grunting is only legal because its something natural, physiological. Many players, luke simona, dont do it on purpose... so grunting is not a criteria to asses work ethic here. I bet you both ash & simo hv great work ethic... similarly, with timeouts. When a player is young, like ash she.ll hv less medical issues... i.m surprised when young player like muchova takes medical, but even so we cannot be sure since (maybe) muchova not used to aussie sweltering heat, being european. So. You don.t know at this stage. Sometimes, we can hv a hunch that a player may do these on purpose. Players that may do these are (ret.) wozniacki, sharapova or even konta. My hunch... anyways, glad that toilet break is gone but girls need medicals. Especially, those not so young and prone to injury. Cheers!

By the way, iga may turn out to be like ostapenko or bianca andreescu...just winning gs when teenagers then fading into the pack... will just wait and see. 😉

@@kamipersonal2687 Oh I believe in medical time outs. But some of the tennis players take advantage of it. And I’m not saying other players don’t have work ethic because the player screams or grunts. It’s not something that just comes natural. People learn to do it, many tennis players don’t make a sound when the the bowl, it’s not necessary. Have you ever heard of golf or scream or grown or yell whenever they hit the golf ball? It’s a learned habit.

@@kamipersonal2687 And just to add, I differentiate between players that grant or scream every single time they hit the ball like Sabalenka, Riske,, Sorres Tormo and others, and in players like Halep, Muguruza and Serena who do it when the matches get tough. The ones that scream and yell and run every time they hit the ball or completely wrong and that should be made illegal. However, like I said in my other response many players don’t make a noise at all at any time and Barty is one of those players. The players that don’t make any noises prove that it’s not necessary to do it at all.
