Maria is playing better this year than last.
Osaka should be ashamed of herself!
Some people predicted Osaka will be top 10 this year, but looking at this, I doubt that
It would be nice if Sakkari can get back to her top form this year.
i wish osaka would put more variety on her game
Osaka has lost too much weight, her power is gone. Hopefully she was just unwell and more back to herself soon
Bravo Maria …. 2026 could be your comeback year
Please repent everyone for Jesus Christ is Lord and please believe in The Gospel yall. Jesus is The Christ!🙏
Bravo Maria!!!
Osaka is looking better and better. I'm not talking about tennis.
Osaka's physique looks great. Looks like she is very serious about coming back!
Osaka looks great and will be soo good this year!
People will say in 2026, 2027, 2028, 2029, 2030…. 😂
She's never going to peak again.
The competition has gotten better and naomi has stayed the same. She still.capable of winning slams and beating top 10 opponents but she needs to find a new coach that can help her raise her game. Before she got pregnant and took break from sport..serena was only one that could match her. After she left. So many players got better. Coco/madison keys and alot of other americans got better/iga, emma raducanu, and zheng quinwen came outta nowhere/sabblenka surpassed everybody no one been able to keep this girl from reaching finals in last 2 1/2 years. And overall most women within top 20 have raised their game. Naomi rn just came seem to adjust to the tougher compertition she still stuck in 2018-2020
Naomi 2nd serve and court speed will be no GS titles any more
Sakkari's backhand was looking very sharp cross court. Osaka is looking fit and moving pretty well and stayed in a lot of the longer rallies so that bodes well for the season ahead. Good win for Sakkari here, should give her confidence moving forward. I always liked her as a player and a person.
Honestly Osaka looks a bit lifeless in this match. Sakkari is ok, but I am not convinced she could get back to Top 20.
今日は大坂選手が少し小さく見えた。・・・チームJapanのカットが一つも無かったのは残念。
Sakkaris body language looks like Amelie Mauresmo except using backhand because Mauresmo has a one handed backhand….but their forehand looks similar…
as a bettor, I can say one thing: I don't know how it happens, but you've probably noticed that when Sakkari leads 5-1 on her serve, she always gives up a break point!!!! ABSOLUTELY ALWAYS! and ends the game on the next break point. Does she have a contract with bookmakers? With these moves, she's destroyed hundreds of millions of dollars for those who bet on obvious outcomes in totals.
Maria looks rather thin. Her pupils look dilated…Maybe she's just super pumped up..
Get well Naomi! You fought hard!
Το νουμερο 15.000 τι δουλεια εχει στον παγκο; καναν τριτοξαδελφο Τσιτσιπα να τον χωσουμε κι αυτον, υπαρχει;
大坂、前みたいなパワーが出てないね。
安定重視のプレースタイルにしたんかな？
体重かなり落としたってコメントもあったけど影響してるんだろうか。
パワーと安定のバランスは難しいけどね〜
Just saw you on here today at library n hey sending a quick I love U pretty !!!! ❤+
sakkari es hombre esa no es mujer
