1999 Miami Serena d Hingis

[@sanctuary70]

Playing the greats like Davenport, Graf, etc, taught SERENA on- the-job training. She played the best & became the best. What I find so amazing is her ability to adjust & pump up the volume right on the court. Man, she truly cleaned the court w the Swiss Miss.

[@johnhaakmat8861]

Imagine, Serena winning her first tournament in this year in Parish against Mauresmo, then the win in this tournament against Steffie and then the big one at the US -open against the nr 1 Hingis all in the same year what a start of a great legacy, history in the making , a big bow to you Queen Serena ( Still hope you might give it a small chance to play!!!)

[@TheFiloujones]

That was the best area in women tennis. I am always impressed to see how low tennis was at that time... There was long rallies and strategies, even with a big hitter like Serena. Now we have players like Kvitova, hitting the ball as hard as she can and making 500 errors per match!! Brainless ball bashers...

Wow, what a wonderful match between two great players. You were just awesome, Serena. I believe you were very young too. You looked very beautiful, Serena. I loved Hingis's outfit. How come the girls do not wear like this anymore?

[@toosoon6209]

Hingis was beautiful and also she resembles Ronda Rousey. Two beautiful women. Now, Serena - the goddess, omg. Need I say more. but yea, the wanted Serena to lose bad That what you call an attempt of crowd intimidation on a player but we too strong for that. Good games back then

@Sabior19 I saw it, and replied. You are also responding a year later. Not trying to be mean, but when you take time to to explain that you don't care about something, the point doesn't really come across.

Serena demolished Hingis in this match.

[@hesch-tag]

6-4 7-6 yeah totally demolished. It's almost a double bagel. You idiot!

Demolished her on match point! Serena overpowered her for sure!! Serena! 👋💯💯✅✅✅

Those williams sisters were a cut above the rest.

Both played well . Both were great. Williams has better form and more power overall.

Nothing gives me more joy than watching old videos of Venus and Serena beating up on HINGIS, Graf and Sharapova

I agree with you regarding Hingis and Sharapova. But Graf not so much. Graf actually did a great job competing with them. She was just on her way out.

I also wonder why they build bigger and bigger stadiums if they are getting emptier and emptier? Back in days stadium were much smaller and that's another reason why the atmosphere was so great!

[@anthonyyusef5897]

It was so much better without hawk-eye. On of the reason atmosphere during matches was so great back in days. Players were complaining and the crowd was getting crazy... Now everything is regulated with the technology.

[@BBQ092506]

Hingis showed how bratty she is in losing the match. Her reactions were totally off. But like she said which we all be reminded of, she is still a kid basically. They were in their teens when they started playing and being an only child and probably spoiled, she didn't know how to handle losses.

[@JamesFrew1]

Chief Designer that’s why it’s so nice to see Hingis play doubles with Venus now and hang out with her and Serena. If only they knew then that they would grow up to like each other!

[@TheFiloujones]

[@Justanotherhuman2]

Serena was only 17 when she demolished Hingis who was the top player at the time. So much for Hingis talking crap off the court. Ms Williams was only 16 but she whooped dat azz in Key Biscayne, Miami.

There is no hawk eye?

[@TheFiloujones]

Hawk-eye arrived in 2006

[@Fontsman]

Hingis had great technique and consistancy but could not withstand the next generation of power players and was usurped. We now have a situation in the women's game where play has become very one-dimensional from the baseline and volleying is all but extinct. Venus Williams with her reach and athleticism could and should have been a truly great serve and volleyer.

[@shockadelica8661]

Isabella Lee Venus took some slams away from Serena, too! ( I know you’re not putting down Venus) Let’s give Venus the credit she deserves for being the player with the most wins against Serena, in history.

Funny thing is-- she didn't care if you liked her in 1999, and I doubt she gives a damn if YOU find her likeable now. I applaud that kind of confidence and self-belief in a woman, although I can imagine that for some men, small men, it's intimidating.

[@janjr165]

Der Hinko: Stop arguing - no one agrees with you. It's clear that you're a HUGE fan of Hingis, and that's cute (I happen t be a fan of Hingis as well); but to try and swing a match in favor of Hingis without ANY factual information exposes just how biased you are in favor of Hingis. Hingis, being the champion that she is, should've been able to find a way to win this match if she wanted it - she wasn't able to do that on this day in 1999. Serena won this match, fair and square, so your entire statement is only a biased opinion at best. Give honor where honor is due, Queen Serena BEAT Hingis in this match, and THAT is how she won - one call DID NOT determine the outcome of this match.
