This is why nobody will remember Bouchard and everybody will remember Sharapova.... Class, talent, beauty, but most of all a fighter, an icon.... you are missed Maria...

she is such a great speaker; unlike other players' diplomatic speeches, she delivers the most genuine remarks.

i want to thanks the US OPEN for believing on Sharapova's capabilities this game was shown live on the opening of the US OPEN AND ON THE PRIME TIME WITH THE TICKETS SOLD OUT..we believe in you MASHA

Me as a Sharapova Fan watching this match in 2017: screaming, laughing, crying, being proud, being even more proud and cry even more (because of being proud and happy) in just one night.

this is the fifth times i watch this play but still i keep watching this fantastic play, both players give their best ...this match proves that Maria Sharapova can play her best with out the banned substance she is accused of taking with out her knowledge that it is banned. pls upload more of Maria's past matches.

Gonna miss Maria and her never-ending willingness to fight for every point.

It’s sad the Maria retired from the sport. But for real fans, despite her absence, it was a relief that she retired because it hurts us to see her struggle with all the injuries she’s getting. Despite the controversial ban, I do believe the Maria is still one if the best stars we’ve seen in decades. We’ll definitely miss her on court. - Forever Fan

True grit of Sharapova will go down in history. Simply at highest tier of mental toughness and focus.

This match is way more intense than final... love you Maria ❤️❤️....miss your presence in the grand slam

Maria is amazing. She is a tennis legend forever. I miss her so much!!!

Maria's outfit looks amazing.

Мария лучшая!!! Как ее любят зрители!

That is the most emotional I have ever seen her after a match and that includes winning Grand Slam title. Great match with both players playing well and giving their all. So after 19 months of not playing a Grand Slam match and only 11 matches the whole year, she beats the #2 player in the world. The drug she took to supposedly help her endurance was banned and she still played a fantastic 2 hr 40 minute match which proved she did not need it as a performance enhancer. She played pretty well that first year back, too bad the shoulder injuries just never went away and basically finished her career.

Maria sharapova is really a great player ❤️❤️❤️❤️

That was the best ever first round match at US Open.

Maria has the ultimate physique for tennis. Strong upper body strength and equally sturdy legs for this sport plus the most important feature of a true champion,heart

Maria Sharapova is married now with a son. She has moved on with her life and raising a family. She has been rewarded for her countless sacrifices in trying to establish herself as a tennis icon. Thanks to her father who masterminded her entry to tennis, as well to Martina Navratilova who encouraged her dad to pursue her tennis career. What a thrill having witnessed a player like Maria who graced the tennis courts with her gorgeous looks, charisma, pleasing personality & powerful tennis plays. We’ll miss you!!! All the best!!!

maria sharapova amazing tennis player👍👍👍

Maria Sharapova is really an excellent player. She has just lost many games due to injury.

Sharapova was under an unbelievable amount of pressure in this match. The doping ban cast a shadow on practically all her Grand Slam titles, so she must have felt like she had to prove it had never been any chemical substance that made her a champion. Anyone else might have buckled under such pressure, especially with the injuries holding her back. She didn't - despite all the double faults and unforced errors, she went for the low percentage shots, played her usual aggresive style and beat the world No.2 at the time. Now that's the mindset and grit of a champion.

there is no doubt this is the best first round match ever in women tennis history!!!

With great pleasure I watched a six-year-old game! Both girls are great tennis players! Thank you US Open Tennis Championships for posting the video of this great match!♥♥♥

Sharapova, what a way to get back into the game. You just came to show us what you're made of. Now without the drug that almost "ends your career". It was your moment, here came the tennis champion again and to stay with the top and making it clear to everyone with this amazing game, but they continued to kill her the same way for a mistake she had already paid for. As you are going to miss her, tennis would not be the same without her, it marked an important part in the history of tennis with its wonderful game and style, a great one.

We’ll definitely miss her on court. - Forever Fan. I don't know about the mechanics or what have you but to me, she has the most beautiful, graceful serve of all. It's dreamy. I love how she keps an eye on her opponent even after she's thrown the ball in the air. Focus.

Best first round ever and even better than the 2015-2019 finals lol

A great playing by both of them. Maria win is just what she deserved. The best was what we have seen after the end of the match. What a beauty!

Miss you Masha

Everytime I see Sharapova's legs I'm amazed all over again. For the record, Haleps legs are also sensational.

What a tremendous battle. No doubt one of those classics worth revisiting many times. It's so vital to have untiring retrievers in the game like Halep, with her beautifully sculpted legs of Olympic racer. Watching her in slow motion rushing to the net or sprinting for dear life from corner to corner is one of those great moments of women's tennis. Halep, with her immense level of energy, sprints after extreme side balls that most players would just let go. She keeps the quality of the game at the highest level of intensity. Halep forces her star opponent to produce her best. And Sharapova, rising to the challenge, delivered. We'll never know another player of such beauty, elegance, and superior talent in a long, long time. Seeing Maria emerge at 17 with her antelope legs and girlish smile withstanding the firing power of battleship Serena Williams was one of those miracles. The Ancient Greeks would have turned her into one of their goddesses. Sharapova was a blessing to the women's tennis world that we will not see duplicated in our lifetimes. Losing her is an absolute tragedy for the WTA circuit. So immensely sad. Our only consolation is to get the videos of as many of her great games as possible. No highlights, only the full games to deploy the wide scope of her unforgettable grace and artistry.

I am not Sharapova fan but she looked stunning in that outfit

Maria 's get-up matched with the black shoes, is the coolest i've ever seen her look on court.

This match was BIG TIME. All eyes on Maria and she thrived under the lights.

Please upload more of Maria‘s matches in this stunning resolution! Thank you!👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

1:23:09 incredible !!!!! must see

60 winners--64 UE(s) that beautiful black outfit. Signature Sharapova.

We can see how much she loves Tennis. Just like winning a slam

Como te quieren maria❤ere muy buena bendiciones🌹🌹🌹👏🇩🇴

2017 was a bittersweet year for Halep.

America loves Maria Sharapova 💋💕💖💖💕💕💋💖💖💖💋💋

Sharapova is my idol. Plays too well, very pretty figure is great, she is tall too. She is perfect

omg love these two women so much, already miss you masha

I was so happy to have Maria back they tried to destroy her career because she said NO and everyone was so blinded by the allegations of drug use but the US Open said fuck you to everybody else we're having this woman in our tournament and now in 2020 she can go her own way out in her own way and she can say NO to anybody

This was so emotional

Bravo Maria 👏🎾❤️

Love her so much

"That behind all the Swarovski crystals and little black dresses, this girl has a lot of grit and she is not going anywhere." (2:49:20)

American love Maria.

2:13:25 WOW STUNNING reflex from MASHA 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯

We must admit that all that Halep is playing today are the lessons learned from the disputes with Sharapova, Kerber and Serena. The squirrel of that time has become a real fox today! The semifinal between them in Rome in 2018, foresaw the coronation of Halep at Roland Garros. :)

Best match!🙂👏👏👏

С большим удовольствием посмотрел шестилетней давности игру! Обе девушки великие теннисистки! Спасибо US Open Tennis Championships, что опубликовали ролик с этим замечательным матчем!♥♥♥

Маша это лучши из твоих матчей я его о 2 года ждал. После. Дисквалификации

2:13:24 WOW WHAT A POINT

this is the best us open first round ever

I really wanted Maria to go all the way in this tournament

I remember that match well. Many are jealous of Maria. She was great for tennis. If she didn't scream so much, she'd have been way more popular

She's a star ⭐.. It's just so unfortunate for her to compete in d same era with Serena's dominance.. Otherwise she had that spark to be on top of d world.

US Open since you don't put Andreescu vs Bencic match... Put a match of Bencic vs Andreescu...

Both players are best

Skarapova Beautiful

Maria forever ;-)

Обратите внимание какой элегантный наряд у Марии + эта обувь ❤, нет, кто бы что не говорил, она богиня и звезда тенниса 😊

thank you for posting!

Real Queen in WTA, not those inconsistent players who haven't even won at least one GS but still earn No.1

Simona🎾💪❤

WONDERFUL, FANTASTIC AND POWERFUL GAME IN SUPER EXTRAORDINARY PLAYERS..... BOTH PARTICIPANTS IS SUPER STAMINA FULL, PRACTICE FULL, TECHNICAL FULL, ENERGY FULL POWERFUL AND STRONG FULL.......... IN THIS SITUATION WINER IS SUPER WONDERFUL............
