In fact, it's a huge asset for any tennis players. Expression of frustration, rarely seen in her, is unwittingly sending a negative message to the opponent. Few in the tour can behave like her. Muchova may be another.

Main character won 1 GS at 24 yo while the side character won 4 GS at 22 yo??

​@@redeyexxx1841Yah...some has a smooth road while some are late bloomers like djokovic

​​@@priyaashokkurup1393ah I still believe that Djokovic is not a late bloomer. It's just that Dojkic faced the best competition ever in tennis history. He faced Federer and Nadal repeatedly in his prime. Now that both Fed is retired and Nadal isn't same either Djokovic has to face new generation where no one is as good as or even close to other 2 members of big 3. If Nadal and Fed nevee existed then Djokovic would have like 33 slams by now.

​@@redeyexxx1841ON THIS MATCH RYBAKINA SMASHED IGA LIKE A RAG-DOLL. IGA DIDN'T STAND A CHANCE. THE SAME WAY MUCHOVA ALMOST WIN THE FO 2023. IGA JUST GOT LUCKY, BUT IT COULD HAVE GONE MUCHOVA'S WAY. BECAUSE IGA IS TOO SOFTY SOFTY & DOESN'T HAVE A KILLER WEAPON & "THE" KILLER INSTINCT.

@@tonynavaro4488 Almost winning doesn't count. IGA won the RG! And nothing lucky out there, she was the better player. And didn't Rybakina took 3 sets to beat Jabeur on her last Wimbledon so that's lucky as well I suppose?? At the end of the day 1GA won 4 GS at 22 while Rybakina only has 1 GS at 24. Keep crying hating @ss 🤡

very much so, for both

Beautiful? I could agree about Elena.

Sabalenka and Rybakina will make it!

@@dominikwalk980lol

I hope so, Elena is my favourite player

Просто без флага нельзя?

Rybakina is making rapid progress but she still has so much more room to improve that it is incredible. She can be much more agile in her play and add variety to her game, she doesn’t have to be a Sharapova clone when so many players around her height have a more balanced style of play on top of strong ground strokes and serves.

@@westonmeyer3110 Haddad Maia, Azarenka, Sabalenka & Samsonova etc., of the similar statue. Rybakina will be of her own. Her performance will be improved overall as she accumulates more experience on the tour. Time will elaborate her game!

Well, let‘s wait and see Wimbledon… Grass isn’t Swiatek‘s best surface and Rybakina/Sabalenka have yet to prove they can be consistently in good form, which Swiatek has proven more until now, and that by being and thus staying number one…

@@cineastik8220 exactly, wait & see! A marked progress in Rybakina's performance may convince many, but her fitness? Unfortunate for virus, at the worst moment. Agreeing with you, some difficulty for Swiatek. Sabalenka & Jabeur ahead. Wildcards: Muchova (no grass prep though), revived Kvitova & wild, wild Ostapenk. More widely open 2023 as it appears. Your prediction?

@@footfault1941 I seriously don‘t know, man… If at 100%, Rybakina seems unbeatable to me on grass, but the women‘s tour on grass and (faster) hardcourt is an open hunt for most of them. On clay, and maybe slower hardcourt, I feel like Swiatek is very hard to beat. She was beatable this year, but I feel like the pressure got in her head. Now that she won RG for a third time (first woman to win a major three times since Serena), pressure could have become less, and she might even sweep Wimbledon. But then, pressure would be up again, especially by being the US Open defending champion. If you just ask me about my wishes, I really do wish to see a dominance and rivalry by A FEW players, Swiatek being my favorite, and Rybakina maybe second (Kvitova is too old I think, and Muchova maybe not consistent enough…), simply because I hate grunting (Sabalenka…🤦‍♂️) and those players don‘t do it. Additionally, I LOVE Coco, and want her so badly to win a major and become dominant, but I feel like she very unfortunately lacks the game to do so… The problem here again is consistency… Only Osaka and Swiatek have four majors, and there are many one or two major winners, and they have been there for years. Not a real dominance like before with Graf, Seles, Hingis, Williams, Henin, Sharapova, and maybe Clijsters… But I do hope Swiatek gets more and thus adds to her legacy, however, I‘m not sure the others can do that as well…

Now we have an even better win by Rybakina to enjoy! IW 2023🎉🎉🎉

AGREE.

Once Elena gets her footwork down this won’t be a rivalry at all. Rybakina is not actually a slow mover(contrary to what they keep saying about her), she just is a little less coordinated and instead of stepping into shots she just stands there or hops into position causing her to overhit or put too much energy into routine shots and lose power from the momentum.

@@westonmeyer3110 yup, especially on hard courts and grass the H2H should be pretty one-sided in Elena’s favour

@@ism7588 Even on clay she could be pretty dominant once she gets the movement down.

@@westonmeyer3110 That's why she lost to so Donna Vekic in first round 🤮

@@redeyexxx1841 2nd round and Vekic deserved that win, she is going to win the tournament now.

Don't make a Idol from someone

Elena is extremely hard working as well.

@@westonmeyer3110 Yes

Another point to beat her: Make sure you make less errors forced or unforced during the first 3 shots of a point. Rybakina managed to do that in this match.

I'm hoping so. 🙏🤞

Iga would destroy Elena, clay is her surface

@@xxxxxxxx8634maybe defeat but not destroy

@@xxxxxxxx8634 Elena likes the clay, it gives her more mobility.

@@xxxxxxxx8634 победила бы ига лену , да бы мешает !

Most likely that will be a semifinal.

Elena has all the tools to beat Iga, and proved it when they've played each other

Well, thx for no points Wimbledon, we have it here in rd of 16 instead

I'm praying for a semifinal between them soon. Lena just won Rome so she's becoming better on clay.

Who?

she’s a quitter!

The sport changed rapidly from when Hingis was young to her later years, people learned how to use the new rackets for more power. Iga is a lot more powerful than Hingis ever was.

It's like a game of paper/rock/scissors - Elena nearly always beats Iga/ Iga beats Aryna/ Aryna always beats Elena

@@blackdogclinic602 More like Rybakina is a nuke and beats everything. Rybakina nearly beat Sabalenka in Wimbledon in Sabalenka’s best season in 2021 and was basically robbed of her victory by the idiot umpire taking away her ace at 30-30 causing Sabalenka to crush a 2nd serve and get to 30-40. Then she gets Sabalenka on her heels in the Australian Open by winning the 1st set for the first time in their rivalry and Sabalenka had to play an insane level to beat her, and then Rybakina wins the only tiebreak between them and also wins the only 2 set match between them. Rybakina is rapidly approaching the point that Sabalenka can’t beat her and eventually Rybakina will destroy Sabalenka strike for strike without Sabalenka double faulting. Rybakina has completely changed the dynamic of the WTA current top 10. She is a shorter but stronger and more athletic Sharapova with the mental strength of Bjorn Borg, nothing will stop her.

@@westonmeyer3110 great assessment but I wouldn’t compare her to sharapova at all, there’s nothing remotely similar in their patterns or style other than their mental fortitude.

i think it's Daniela Hantuchova

@@saltnugget It´s very obvious that Rybakina is not her player, in the last game she didn´t say anything.

And in the end she kinda gave up! I hope she will come back stronger

She is definitelythe better player look at her accomplishments and elenas whe being younger

But Elena played extraordinary too

Lol these Iga fanboys. Elena destroyed her before this

Elena literally dominated her wtf. Just like when Pegula destroyed Swiatek, you fans just keep trying to make excuses for her and downplay the winning player

She's got the tools to beat Iga. Shows in their head to head meetings, 3 - 2 to Rybakina. Many more Elena please, want you at No 1 and let Iga drop down to either 2 or 3.

What are you talking about?

Both she and Potopova

Well of course like everbody does 😂😂😂😂

Yeah of course it will never happen again as Elena will be winning AO in 2024. 😂😂😂

FAKING?! fake is Krishna Kumar hahahaha

@@kasiaxxx8141 ignore him. He doesn't say that, because he is Elena fan, he is obsessed with Iga spamming about that how weak and overrated no.1 is Iga and how she wouldn't have chances against Serena and Sharapova.

@@xxxxxxxx8634 that's the truth Serena and Sharapova were queen and princess 🙏🙏

Причем тут допинг.завидуй молча.Ига хорошый игрок и человек.про нее никто плохого не говорить.это спорт

Cry harder, polish butthurt fandog of Iga

Farted? When?
