It's like the French Open final

Iga showed in this match why she's number 1. Osaka played incredibly too, what a game, felt like a final not round 2.

*Say what you want, but only the greatest can win such matches. Today Iga put into action the words of Roland Garros: Victory belongs to the most tenacious.*

I think Iga will be one of the greatest tennis players in history. I have never seen a mentally stronger person

Iga serving in the final set, 2-5 0-30. Osaka is two points from the match. Iga wins 5 games in a row! Wow!

I hate how “Highlights” often just means “Best shots + match point”. True highlights need to show all the crucial points in the match, at the important moments, to give a true picture of what happened. I’d have loved to have seen every point of that 2-5 game in the third set, as the match turned then. As it is, this video just tells us “they both hit some great shots and eventually Swiatek won” but nothing else about HOW that happened. I don’t know if anyone on the team will read this but I suspect many people (true tennis fans in particular) would agree. We don’t just want the best shots, we want the important points which decided the match as these are what make tennis dramatic and, in my view, the greatest sport in the world.

The question I kept asking myself was: ''How long can Osaka keep playing this insane level of tennis?'' When she was up 5-3 in the 3rd I was sure she atleast kept it up long enough to secure the win. Huge credit to Swiatek for not giving up and stay in the match.

I think Poland and Japan showed what is typical for their nations - "Never surrender".

Nadal may have lost, but the clay warrior spirit is still present at RG courts...

Champion mentality

Polscy komentatorzy-Kiedy iga złapie palec to wykorzysta sytuację i pożre w całości.To zdanie najlepiej opisuje jej fenomen

Iga is absolutely amazing. But… Naomi was great also.

Best match so far at Roland Garros. Well done girls. Osaka is definitely back.

I've literally switched off the stream when Iga was down 0:3 in 3rd set. Not because I thought that this score is irreversible. But because how great Naomi was playing. Like every shot, even under big pressure, landed in-court. I thought "ok, it's Naomi's day, that happens some times...". 1GA so mentally strong that it's just beyond belief. Can't imagine she's not winning this whole tournament now.

Even though Osaka didn’t win I’m so happy with the way she played, especially on clay. The future looks promising. And of course Bravo Iga!

wow, swiatek live in another world

People seemed to forget who is Naomi Osaka, she just refreshed their memory...great game, bravo Iga...if Naomi stays healthy and motivated she will be in a matter of few months where she belongs at least top 5

Brilliant, absolutely brilliant from both players. Boy, was that a tense match, and I said from the outset that this was not going to be a stroll for Iga. Osaka really played the best I've seen her for a couple of years. You simply have to give such huge plaudits to Iga for her fighting mentality again there when the chips were down. Match point down, just like against Sabalenka in Madrid, and again she found something, under even more pressure here. Some of the shots she played to win those last five games were just unreal. It's why she's number one. In a way, having to win like this may well sharpen up her focus for the rest of the tournament.

Ok Iga is not a human🤯Only Nadal,Federer,Djoko,Serena can do this.

Eurosport, how do you skip from 2-5 0-30 to 4-5 in the 3rd set and show nothing? Even if there are no incredible points in between you need to paint a picture to the audience of how Swiatek gets out of a 0-30 hole 1 game away from losing the match and breaks back!

Iga! Ale nam zafundowałaś horror. Kiedy już myślałam, że nie dasz rady, to Ty się odrodziłaś. Brawo i ogromne gratulacje

9 minutes video and you don´t include de match point saved and the point when Iga broke for 6-5 in the fifth. Congrats

What a comeback!🔥🔥🔥

Iga shows respect to Naomi not celebrating but hugging her ,because she knows how difficult it is for a playl aer to come back after so much time and stay at this level!Naomi is in good way and at hard clay I think she will going far! Iga plays early a very tough game we wiill see how she handle the physical and mental part.Who will she play next;

If you have only 3 hours left to live, you MUST WATCH the full match. You will thank me later.

Dont ever underestimate the heart of a champion

Ale emocje... Ten mecz przejdzie do historii, to pewne...

That's unbelievable recovery for iga. Just wow. Mental stength is inspirational

Iga is mental giant

Some who follow Iga may remember she played a game like this before. It was in Rome 2021, third round against Barbora Krejcikova. She lost the first set 6:3 and was down 5-40:2 in the second set. She defended the game and went on to win. She got to the final and double baggeled Karolina Plišková who was nuber 3 at the time in just under 40 minutes. It was the most ruthless match/execution from Iga that I have ever seen.

Nasza mistrzyni znowu udowodniła jaka jest wielka i powstała jak Feniks z popiołów 👏jesteś wielka Iga🌹🌹🌹

wow I thought Osaka won with a 5-2 lead in the 3rd... beautiful tennis! bravo to both

Respect for Osaka 👊 She really challenged Iga but Swiątek was stronger mentally in the end of the match 🥶

OMG, what a match!!! Both players played a superb tennis. Someone has written that this could be final and I fully agree. And the respect they have for each other, wow!

I don't know who made these highlights, but it was another time when many important and good points of the match were not shown.

Z piekła do nieba Iga-Twoje mecze kończymy na kardiologii😂

Osakas peaks were so high in this match. Incredible power and precision.

That was RG final!!! Naomi US open is yours 🇯🇵Ofc congratulations for Iga I wish you next RG crown 👑

Jestem niedowiarkiem. Przepraszam Iga :)

Iga jesteś WIELKA💪💪💪🔥 Takiego dreszczowca dawno nie oglądałem! Alfred Hitchcock byłby dumny!😁💪💪💪

WOW. What.a.match!🤯🤯Such high quality, perfect thriller😍Huge respect to these amazing champs, love both of them, pure class both Iga and Naomi💜Just awesome to see Naomi back in such great form, enjoying herself on court😃Looking forward to see more of her competing with the top 10, she'll surely make WTA, which I'm loving already, even more exciting! She was on fire today, she just went for it, she was so pumped up to beat Iga, it was clear that she believed she can do it. But I'm even more impressed with Iga's comeback and mental fortitude - because she is the one with all of the pressure, everyone is expecting her to win and defend the title, plus almost 2000 points on the line...Seriously,her mental strenght never fails to amaze me...Considering that she's still SO YOUNG...the way how she handles the pressure of being world#1 is insane...the target is constantly on HER back. How she's able to continue fighting off every player who comes out on court ready to really go for it and play the match of their life without having any expectations put on them is simply beyond me ( and today, with Osaka playing like THAT, breaks and matchpoints down🤯)Only TRUE LEGENDS can do that. It's one thing to get to the no.1 spot, quite another to stay there for over 100 weeks...Just ask Naomi and Sabalenka about that. True inspiration!👏💪💪Go Iga, one stop closer to another RG trophy😍

One of the best WTA matches this year. Definitely TOP 3. Lots of games of 7-10+ minutes each. I am a big fan of 1GA, but Naomi played at full risk, had an amazing serve and played well tactically (bravo to the coach). I haven't seen her so motivated and confident for a long time! She defended a lot of break points. In the second set she literally crushed the WTA #1, came back from 0-40 and played amazing returns. 👏 If N.Osaka hadn't hit the ball into the net in the 3rd set at 5-3 15-15 she probably would have won the match. 1GA from 2-5, 0-30 in 3rd set to victory!

Iga is absolutely brilliant!

I'am stil can't believe what I saw :).

iga's win is a wonder: closed roof, almost indoor tennis. yeah, osaka played incredible, but the court was like a fast hard court...

This must be heartbreaking for Osaka to win after being up 5-2 0-30 and having had a match point at 5-3 (why isn't that in the summary by the way?). But if anything, Osaka should take out the positive out of this match. She showed that potentially she can get that #1 spot. Osaka in top form is a joy to watch and a real added value to the WTA.

One of the best wta matches this year and Osaka plays amazing tennis.

So happy to see Osaka playing again. Her groundstrokes were astonishing in this match, this will be a great rivalry

This should be FINAL.

EPIC MATCH! Too bad so few people watched it live

Iga came back in the 12th round:).Feminine Rocky Balboa. Jazda Iga

I don`t understand that. Iga looked tired, unfocused, hopeless. Missed easy shots, couldn`t serve well, moved slower than Osaka. And then she casually won 5 games and a match.

Po 2 piłkach meczowych Osaki aż 5 gemów z rzędu Igi!@!!!!! Coś niesamowitego! Mecz super! Brawo IGA! Jesteś WIELKA!

Mega szacun iga 🎉🎉

Great match from both ladies. That was a Tennis by big "T". Iga is just incredible... Shame on you Paris for really poor attendance on such a great match.

Iga. Nasz skarb narodowy! Iga! Polish national treasure!

Czy nadal ktoś uważa,że psycholog w teamie Igi bierze pieniądze za nic?😂

I wish they would've clashed in later rounds... I would've liked to see a few more matches on clay from Osaka, with today's level she could've made a deep run!

Hopless audience. Frenchmen bahaved horribly. Fortunately Iga made them shut up

video is so long yet it barely shows iga's flipping the third set around in her favor smh

Myślałem, ze to takie sobie gadki o odporności psychicznej naszej Igi. Ale to jednak prawda ❗😊 Nie pierwszy raz udowadnia to wszystkim niedowiarkom, w tym mnie 😜 Dzisiaj nie dałem rady oglądać całego meczu. Nie wytrzymałem psychicznie ... 🤪😁 Oczywiście gratulacje dla IGI ♥️

Już była w ogródku już witała się z gąską...Osaka poznała fragment polskiej literatury i w wykonaniu młodopolskiej poetki .

Mało nie umarłem

Holy shit, I feel so bad Naomi lost this match. She was playing incredible tennis, like it was final. She is back for sure. Looking forward for hard court part of the season

This is probably the best match Naomi Osaka has ever played on clay. She's going to dominate at the US Open if she can keep this form going.

Iga a true champion ... to recover a break in the third is true champions with a very strong Osaka ... great!!!

So they don't include the 4-1 break point Osaka choke in the third? Probably the most important point of the match.

Coś pięknego! Nerwy ze stali!

Неймовірний матч!!!! Дівчата просто красуні,прекрасна гра гра без безумних криків,просто супер,це був фінал!!!

Как ты играешь, это не так важно. По-настоящему важно как ты играешь в решающие моменты. Осака пока не готова. Но ее попытка была впечатляющей.

These girls are just A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!!!! Such a masterpiece of a match!!!! ✌️🎉👏👏👏👏

This match-up everything the WTA needs. And the ATP, too!

IGA is incredible, she is number one in the world for a long time without breaks and had no baby. Osaka, wow this match was incredible although she lost she gave Iga a match that nobody has been able to really give her. So for me Iga had to dig very deep because she had to, how would it look the number one lost to someone who have only recently returned, played a few tournaments and wasn’t very successful. I agree fully with someone who said that Iga could become one of the best players who graced the courts. Having said that, Osaka I believe is back and this woman when playing like she played today has this invincibility that’s incredible and she’s afraid of nobody. So let’s see what happens from here on with this momentum because she has nothing to be disappointed about it was an incredible match by both players.

Poor highlights. After 1:1 5:2 there is suddenly 5:4. The best action isn't shown here.

Osaka zagrała genialny mecz i wielki szacunek za to, ale Iga dołożyła swoją cegiełkę do tego. Właściwie to nie tyle Iga, co taktyka przygotowana na ten mecz przez Wiktorowskiego. Największym błędem były gemy serwisowe Igi, gdzie nastawiła się w 100% na siłę zagrania, a odpuściła precyzję. Akurat na Naomi, to był zły wybór, bo potrafiła solidnie odgrywać te nawet 190km/h Igi. Drugi błąd, to (nie pierwszy już raz) mała ilość uderzeń przeciw nogom, gdzie taka pewnie coś z 80+kg zawodniczka będzie miała problem zawrócić.

I was there live in the stadium, it was such a pleasure to watch. Naomi serving with around 200 km/h is ridiculous… also the way she outplayed Iga in the 2nd set, wow

WHERE IS NAOMI'S MATCH POINT ???????????

Iga is amazing

What a game. Uffffff 🔥🤯👏

Jeszcze raz na spokojnie obejrzałem skrót. Ten mecz miał szalony przebieg i dostarczył wiele emocji. W pewnym momencie pomyślałem sobie, że tylko cud może sprawić, by Iga wygrała z rozpędzoną Japonką. I cud nastąpił:) Trzeba przyznać, że Naomi zagrała bardzo dobry mecz z kapitalnym poruszaniem się po korcie. W decydujących momentach jednak Iga była lepsza i to ona melduje się w 3. rundzie. Jak powiedziała bodajże J.Sakowicz- Kostecka, to powinien być finał😊

That's what happens when you don't close the match. You had her in your sack but at 5-3 and 30-0 you didnt get an easy ball over the net. That's where you lost this match Naomi.

Iga doesn’t use the wide serve and the T serve at all for free points and Naomi got so comfortable. Eventually a relief that a 4th RG title is still possible.

What the actual f... I stopped watching when she was losing badly in 3rd set. Too painful. I will never doubt her again. That is insane!

Kuźwa zaparłem się trzy razy...

Naomi's moves OMG, unpredictable like Andrey Rublev

8:26 🤯🤯🤯 This point in THIS moment, wtf!!🔥🔥

People seem to forget two things: 1. Naomi is a good friend of Iga. She supported her and took her under her wing when Iga was on the up after her first Roland Garros grand slam. That's why Iga didn't celebrate beating her friend on her return to the tour at the end of the game. 2. Iga's biggest ambition is to win Olympics. Her father was an olympian rower who failed at olympics because one of his crew fell ill just before the race. That's why he directed Iga towards an individual sport so the same doesn't happen to her. This is an Olympic year. In Paris. Which will be played on clay...

What a match

Goodness me - GREAT to see Naomi playing so well, on not her favorite surface. Looking like she's happy to be playing, back from having a baby. Swiatek is incredible, she keeps improving (staying healthy of course), I think she will eventually win Wimbledon, at least once (a junior Wimbledon champ - doesn't mean "nothing"). Would love to see Naomi back in the top 10 too. Great match - super for us fans of the sport!

Why didn't you show vital moments of the first set when Świątek saved set point, when she had to save match point and many other actions? Very poor highlights....

Mecz roku w wykonaniu Igi

Queen is only one !!! And her name is IGA !!!

Iga pamiętaj , że zawsze jesteśmy z tobą! Wierzyłem do końca, że wygrasz! Piękny mecz! 🇵🇱🇵🇱🇵🇱

Lol that comeback was sweet.

Wow what a match

Iga is a true Champion 💪

Wtf are the 3rd set highlights?! Barely showed a single Swiatek point minus the final game 🤷🏻‍♂️

At 5-2 i went back to my workplace hopefully Osaka day has come, but I was wrong with the final results in front of my mobile phone "Swiatek won Osaka" unbelievable match, congratulations to Iga, and wishing Osaka good luck in her subsequent matches.

Best WTA match I've seen in a long time. Amazing mental by Iga, but I'm especially excited for Naomi. Heartbreaking loss, but with this match she proved the haters wrong; the way she bagelled Iga in second set was some insane tennis. If she keeps nurturing and maintaining that level, she's gonna be back big time and I'm all for it! Let's go Naomi, I love you!

Iga is consistent in every match...Naomi played incredible today but is she going to play like this all the time on and on...Iga is capable. That is why who won today and she will show the same face next time.
