Ones a cheater

Henin was a freak. She doesn't even look like a tennis player.

@@Mean.Devil77787 No, no William sister played this match.

Both were overrated players

@@Mean.Devil77787 that drug was legal u hater.

Well said! Maria's comeback from shoulder surgery was a huge deal. She is a champion and a major figure in the ladies game.

I agree. All those double faults in later years cost her dearly in matches. Plus, she did not get as many "free" points off her serve which was huge when she was young.

Serve means too much in tennis. I don’t even know how Maria Sharapova was able to actually play without serving and win Gran Slams.

to be honest, her serve was never technically very sound. Given her physical attributes, she could've had A LOT better of a serve.

@@hehehehehahahaha2025 Maria had a very sound serve initially. However she kept grow and having shoulder pain, thus she kept tinkering with her motion. 04-05 it was great 06 it was still amazing but slightly different. Starting 07 you could see she was serving very different than previous years.

Na it was definitely 2008 Australian Open. She was almost untouchable.

She was playing decent tennis but I believe she played best against Petra kvitova at the Australian open.semi finals I wanna say it was

I agree but I do believe 2008 Australian Open too was one of her best as well...maybe even more than this 😁

@@AFCompany I definitely agree!!!

RG 2014 🔝🔝🔝

That's right! Sharapova is probably the most underrated tennis players from all times.

She won 3 before her surgery and the 2 French after. She is the only player to ever win a major after shoulder surgery though. I think she could have had 8-10 majors if her serve had been the same but she still had a great career.

She beat Serena BEFORE she ever was prescribed it. She won Wimbledon and the US Open before and many would say from 2004-2006 was her best tennis.

People who troll Sharapova on KZfaq are not tennis fans. They're just losers who hate her because she's one of the most recognizable tennis players of the last 2 decades. People who know tennis know that she was a force to be recon with. One of the very few players to have won all of the Grand Slams as well as an Olympic medal, she finished her career with an near 80% win ratio.

@@brandonaldaymachuse6669 I wonder how many internet trolls beat Serena in a Gran Slam final as a teenager....

You’re right Sharapova serve was a real weapon before her shoulder surgery. Henin had some troubles with Maria even at her peak (as in the Masters final in 2007), and the best example is their match at the AO in 2008

46 titles is not bad and I think she is the 11th all time player with most Grand Slams. But yeah, there were a few more Slams she could've have won had she not been injured so often.

True. I also wish she won more titles and grand slams than Serena Williams. People are always saying Serena is better than her

@@fedvvvv I think she maxed out on her talent. She was never very athletic and her technique was very limited and flawed. Frankly it’s a miracle she was able to win so much (and on every surface at that), but that’s a testament to her incredible fighting spirit. That being said, the only Slam she realistically let slip through her fingers was the 2011 French Open. She was up a break in both sets in the SF against Li Na but kept gifting away the match with double faults and even ended the match with two double faults in a row. Had she won that she would have played Schiavone in the final and most likely won. I can’t think of a single other instance in which she was the clear favorite to win, but didn’t.

@@lijivarghese4209 Because it's true

@@regulusarcturus I would say Maria had her limitations but that is true of almost any player on tour. In addition to her tremendous mental strength, she played to her strengths which was predicated on power, precise baseline hitting and an excellent BH. She had a powerful first and second service early in her career. When she had her shoulder injury, her serve became a bit of a liability and she was never able to produce the type of tennis that allowed her to win the first 3 slams of her career ever again. But she adapted and became a clay court master. She learned how to slide on clay, and she adapted to the surface very well, learning to play defense and adding more variety into her game with a lob, drop shot, and slice. She also conditioned herself to play long rallies and outlast her opponents. So I agree with most of what you are saying, but I think her winning had a lot more to do with hard work and talent rather than a miracle. I think she could have won FO11 and AO12 (especially if she faced Clijsters in the F instead of Az).

Конечно, когда милдронатам накачалась и усталости не знала,а мы то думали, хорошо играет.потом анализы показали.

Maria's backhand is one of my favourites too in the women's game - especially her back hand cross court

There's another one: Gabriela Sabatini.

@@jpman2173 i would add Li Na on this list

Serena has the best serve everyone else can fall in line after

@@viz1 No, Henin's serve was far and away the best, then Serena and everyone else. She just had a grace about her.

Noticed that as well. She had the mindset of a lioness. Focused and unbothered.

This is too much talk rethink it

Henin warm personality?😅

doperova warm?

add to!

@@andyell8485 where ? I m looking for the whole match

@@mejdi8292 I'm add to your request for this match!)

I'm a huge Sharapova fan but not even close. She is by far the most popular in the last 2 decades but you are forgetting several legends before her. She is propably in the top 20 for sure.

What a joke !

Don't watch their other matches...the head-to-head shows Henin winning 7 of their matches, Maria only 3.🥴 This match was one of the 3 Maria won.

@@joshuamcpherson007well Sharapova won a grandslam final against Henin😂.

@@AoDk673 Henin had the winning record and dominated their rivalry, even though Henin is half Maria's size.

@@AoDk673 and then doperova get knocked out in third round and couldn't defend her title you can't be a great if you can't defend a major, facts are facts

🤡

Let's see if Iga can really both cope with pressure and improving her game.

Iga would not win this maria and henin

Didnt even see the earrings! Wow, drop earrings in a us open final?

jealous...you dont have to tell the truth,we all know the reason why you said so is because you can never afford such Tiffany earrings, hater. They made those earrings for her to wear on tennis court, it's not illegal just as for you to say it's impractical. lol

@@brenchengbrencheng4794 no no, it's called envy my dear

I saw 2 hard hitters here.

Tourney?

Agree, esthetism is also a part of the power of human beings

480i era. Television even for huger series like Friends, X Files etc was shot on SDTV, it is only the reboots that are 1080P. WWE only started filming in HD in 2008. It only really looks bad if your eyes aren't used to the old stuff. I was watching it from the late 1970's so really the picture quality improvement is really only the last decade or so.

🤡

Для идиотов: Милдронат никогда не было запрещён. Его запретили после начала событий на Украине. Запретили втихаря, поэтому многие наши спортсмены даже об этом не знали, в том числе Шарапова.
