Well said. I am so glad to see new leadership

I've noticed this too - I think she's been learning from A.M how to return

Stop this crazy simping, its like it wasnt interesting before

So your saying that it was never interesting before🤨. Ur a little sus.

She is very tactical and adjust the game to win the whole game. So talented

Her "present" isn't too shabby!

Bright future.. way bigger than tennis

1 year later tada da da da 😂😂😂😂

She also had soooo many break points on Sakkari's serve but missed like 70% of them. This is just her 3rd month on tour, lol. She'll improve.

@@boke75 Ha, yeah I noticed that too. Could've easily been at 5-2 2nd set if she'd have been able to convert. But she will improve, yeah.

Like Djokovic - when up against it just digs in: “they shall not pass”

@@boke75 She went backwards

A backslide à la Bouchard.

I haven't watched women's tennis since Justine Henin was destroying the competition with one of the best backhands the game has ever seen. She used to be so entertaining to watch. Raducanu is a different type of player but I find her tennis similarly entertaining.

MAN OF CULTURE!

SAMEEEE

@@CHEESYhairyGASH I agree. Justine and Emma have that similar x factor. The same tenacity. Justine is my female tennis idol. Now, I can see Emma joining Justine in my all time favorite list

Same

Me too. And she plays like Li Na but is much younger and better for the mental strength. Brilliant future to come

I saw her first!

@@newmennium Get in line like the rest of us, buddy !

@@boke75 Take a number dude!

In her ten matches at the USO, Emma returned every second serve she faced from inside the baseline!

Feel same. There is hard work there

She’s surprise how much better she was than Sakari

@@b.h.7423 She's elated that she can now afford that rubber duckie mom won't buy for her.

@@iemranjuffri4827 don’t seek a career in stand up comedy..or joke writing

Oddly similar trajectory. Tom gets his break when Bledsoe was taken out, gets the Pats to the playoffs, then wins his 1st SB in his 2nd season Emma only gets into her first GS at Wimbledon via a wild card, gets to the 4th round, then enters her 2nd GS at the US Open and wins. Let's hope she has as many GS Final wins and appearances as TB12 does SBs so far.

GOAT in football? Surely that would be Messi, Maradona, Ronaldo maybe? Oh, you mean that football where they carry it around their hands the whole time...I see 🤦‍♂️

You know what, I had the same thought, although at first I couldn't remember where I'd seen that "first championship" reaction before. Then I was like "oh yeah, Tom Brady". Yes... Emma has a chance to become the GOAT in women's tennis. This is just the beginning.

"She will become the goat of tennis"...hahahahahahaha my this aged well didn't it, what has she done since? Oh thats right, nothing. And you think she'll be greater than the likes of Federer, Nadal and Williams on the back of a single impressive tournament. Your delusions know no limits. Bet you don't even watch tennis but simply took a ride on the Radacanu bandwagon. The fairytale is over now I'm sorry to inform you, back to the real world.

Calm down my guy

That’s layla

@@noluvemil5206 She's not the one who just won the US Open tho is she

@@cwells45 I’m saying game wise and shots wise

Indeed

Regardless your femme fedal pun was quite clever. Surprised no one picked up on it.

I watched all 10 of her matches, on Amazon Prime. Being a Brit, I am so proud of her.

Yes please, i also want to watch the full match

full match is available for download on thepiratebay

Full match is available in this channel

they are really similar, but Emma is more powerful than Lina

Yup

Her Romanian ground strokes like halep is amazing

@@wilson0347 definitely see even more pace as she gets older and puts on more muscle.

@@wilson0347 nah li na had a way stronger forehand and better backhand than raducanu has. Emma has stronger returns but for sure not groundstrokes in general

I watched the full match. Sakkari was very nervous and made many errors and easily gave the match away.

@@dontennis2260 I'm telling you the amount of unforced really poor errors no first serve whatsover. I was surprised when I watched it.. emma won 6 1 without doing much at all.. sakkari fluffed nearly every key moment

@@daenbrown830 Here we go again......

Don't know there's a big federer liking to her game tbh in some parts.

I have also become a huge fan of Emma. She is what's right with tennis.

He is Emma's favourite male player. If Federer becomes her coach at any time, Emma will become a huge legend. That's her strength - precision on her groundstrokes. destructive down both sides and any weakness on her serve is more than compensated by her overall movement around the court. I notice she doesn't use the drop shot or lob much in her matches.

@@stevephillips6309 She doesn't need to use the lob tbh but it will definitely come in handy! Probably should get some pointers from Andy murray he's not to shabby at that particular skill.

@@stevephillips6309 Yes, she's stated she wants to add more variety to her game, hence the search for a new coach I guess.

And no Loud Grunting

pretty big windup, tho.

@@boke75 that’s not necessarily a bad thing.. 🤔

@@crazycatpetera1404 Not necessarily but another player (retired recently) Julia Goerges had a similar 2-handed backhand windup. When Goerges was “on”, the backhand was beautiful, accurate and deadly. Problem was, it was fine for a match or 2 but as soon as she faced a power player, she’d have a bit less time for her huge windup and consequently break down her backhand.

@@boke75 well she was “on” for 10 matches in a row without dropping a set so.. when’s the last time Giorgi did that? 😂

I thought exactly the same

Yes and it drove me mad

I thought I was the only one, it was making me mad too

It's the sound of the player's feet landing after serving.

I noticed that as well - I think it was the racquets hitting the deck - was happening in the final too, but not necessarily all the time.

Ppl who make hating grunting their entire tennis personality 🙄

@@fans-ed1td Some of us don't like watching with the sound off.

This trend with the men or women should never have been allowed to continue. Weak world tennis association to blame.

@@robbie_ the sound off? Grow up please.

@@fans-ed1td Why don't you just bore off?

Serena and sharapove same thing

@@b.h.7423 svitolina aswel, embarassing

@@redwoodtrees7068 WTA needs line in the sand between grunting and screeching. Grunting everyone does, sreeching is taunting, intimidation, should never have been permitted. She me where Chris Evert screeched.

@@b.h.7423 no Serena won 23 slams with an unbelievable serve amazing return game and ability to change the game plan when plan A isn't working

@@chillguy102 SW “goat” of how not to carry yourself as a champion!

Every opponent she faced said the same thing about never founding their game, not playing well etc… coincidence? I don’t think so :)

It's hard to find your A game when you are constantly on the back-foot, that's often down to your opponent who put you there.

That is because Emma reads Sakkari's game well and placed shots where she least expected it. Had Emma palyed into Sakkari's game, she would have been overpowered after a few rallies. That was exactly what Emma did: keeping Sakkari on the edge, keeping her moving around instead of hurling shots at each other from the same spot.

@@MrTajmania Dude...come on. The video starts off with Sakkari firing wild forehands on multiple break points, outside of one backhand winner Emma did nothing to cause those misses. That was a microcosm of Sakkari in this match. It doesn't take away from Emma's tournament to say that Sakkari never really showed up in the semi final.

@@MegaTobins696 bro look at Sorribes Tores, she’d just beaten Ash Barty a few weeks back, Emma dismantled her, made countless unforced errors, struggled in every service game, almost got double bageled! It’s Emma’s ability to continue to apply pressure at the right times. It’s the ability to return every serve regardless whether it’s first or second, and with interest. Her mental strength to forget the point she’s played and focus on the next one. She did that to everyone she played, dismantled Rogers who’d just beaten Ash Barty, dismantled Bencic Olympic champ, ripped apart Sakkari most in-form player this year & then dominates the final against someone who beat Kerber & Osaka. It is absolutely extraordinary what she achieved and I don’t think you can say that Sakkari’s poor performance was the reason she lost, just like with all the others she beat. Can they all re-think their game plan and beat Raducanu, of course, but please give all credit to Emma for playing the player in every round, playing in the moment, and doing what was necessary to win in one of the greatest sporting achievements in the history of sport.

Emma is 18.

Yea,yea... also us, with romanian roots 🇷🇴🇷🇴🇷🇴

Cann't wait for the British media to disown her once she starts losing.

@@vincentsong1355 you want her to lose? Because you’re saying delusional stuff like “can’t wait.” What’s your problem

@@vincentsong1355 The British media will stand behind her regardless if she wins or loses.

It's because she's composed.

@@edwinfcapidos maybe her Asian heritage and skin color too.

She’s said Li Na is one of her inspirations so that’s probably why that was brought up. I haven’t seen enough of Li Na but people have said some of her movements are similar. Like her forehand.

Yes perhaps but I see something of Hingis in her intelligent play and also in her composure and ability to play the big points well

FYI, Li Na said Agassi is the player she admire and had a lot of influence from the game he play.

Maths mechanics coming in handy.

they don't have time for school, probably home school.

@@majestytd ...she went to a normal day school in her hometown Bromley, and did her A-Levels ( entrance exam to Uni, in the UK ) and got As for Maths and Economics, a few months back. She did not go to any of those fancy 'tennis academy' in Spain or Florida, just the Tennis Club near her home.

Its rare for professional sport or a tennis player to have both biceps and brain.

@@majestytd she took her exams 3 wks before wimbledon

Jesus if only you know what she's become 🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️

It’s there already

Yeah, I would have loved to hear what the benefits were, unless she meant just get the first set done and over with and save your energy for the 2nd set.

Chanda Rubin ? Even Carillo was in disbelief at that one, lol.

Some did deliberatly let go a set and just go for draining opponent's stamina, but this is not what Sakkari's doing here

@@Skypeaful yes, but to deliberately give us a set 6-0 - in a US open quarters.....amazed it even crossed their minds...

Blown away who? She lost

"Goat in this tournament" is an oxymoron

@@johnman9386 lol, basically it means "Greatest of all time in this tournament", which absolutely makes no sense 😂

Well she had to be better than everyone else to win... It's not even something to have an opinion about, it's literally just how it is

Radicals correct !

Maria's game seems to rely on being in the middle punching power shots to force her opponent back but is weak if she gets forced to move around and play at high speed.

@@darthwiizius Disappointed Maria with what like 6, 7 full years of wta tour-level experience couldn't cope with a virutal neophyte junior-level Emma. And Maria saying the young guns absolutely took it to the veterans rings false. What, like she wasn't gunning for it, too ? Truth is, I think the new girl moves very well and maybe Maria felt pressure to go for the lines...a sure-fire way to get a bucket-load of UFE's. And sure enough both had the same # of winners but Maria had twice as many UFE's as Emma. Another Shapovalov.

@@boke75 Maria is just a muscle man player, the moment she got moved from side to side she was in trouble.

@@darthwiizius did you see the match of her against Plíšková? she can move fast enough

@@tylerdaniels9000 Likely more of an outlier, hauling all them steroid induced muscles around court for 7 rounds of a Slammer is likely a limiting factor, her lactic acid build ups must be horrendous.

Yeah, it's disgusting isn't it?!

Subliminal messaging for propaganda purposes.

@@ShahidKhan-ke8fe "pink" also represent the color of raw flesh. The "camo" represent the Military.

Er No.

@@MrTreehugger78 yes. She’s better than both of them

@@amandacerny8145 she isnt elena and jelena both better players but had much harder opponents hence why they never won slams

Can’t believe

The women players have said they are willing, but the slam organisers said they haven't got the time to fit in best of 5 games for women as well as men.

Sakkari's mother.

It's funny how all the veterans wilted under pressure, whilst the two teenagers thrived.
