[@ithikithik]

It's so nice to see Krejcikova play well again in single.

[@hussTennis]

Barbora Krejcikova has such a beautiful game that I really hope to see her at the top of the pyramid

[@TheRealDeePoole]

Such a great display of celebration but also respect for Alicia and her run. Classy showing from Krejcikova all the way around. Alicia is on our radar now!!! Congratulations to her and can’t wait to see what’s next!!! Australia is not far away!

[@timleelim9930]

Parks and recreation. She played well this tournament and we'll be seeing more of her.

[@kevinpatrickcarey3741]

hopefully not my stomach can only take so much i doubt it, She gets blasted out early in almost every tournament

[@vitta1214]

From no name to heroine of the week. Solid week for Parks.

[@Fuiape]

Fell in love with Alycia and her vibe and talent! I will definitely be following her career

[@theodoreg]

what a great week for Parks! i knew she was bound to have a breakthrough run. but bumping up against Krejcikova who is more experienced and far more consistent and tougher mentally. i’m glad to see this version of Krejcikova back!

[@seensay2132]

Pleasant surprise. Alycia playing Top 10 tennis and on her way up.

[@simonpegg1196]

Barbora is so original and unique. Has her own playing style and never tries to copy anyone. Very likeable. Good to see her getting her groove back in singles. Congrats, Krejcikova!💯

Good on Alycia Parks for not going out meekly. Hopefully she manages to display more of the form she showed this week more often on tour. She’d be a great one to watch!

[@7135HOLLY]

Good match; it’s great to see Barbora back after injuries.

[@STRAWYB]

Love watching her play

[@1welshdevil]

I didn't actually think Barbora played all that well, but she found a way to win, against a real rising star. Surely the player on the WTA with the most variety, awesome player, glad to see she's found her confidence again.

rising? lol well its crash and burn time now

[@philippebartoli422]

Once again timing against power .... and timing wins ! What a pleasure to see Barbora playing an elegant and efficient tennis. Accuracy in the choice of the shots, clever use of the tennis court geometry, excellent footwork, great mental strength.... Bravo ! Alycia played very well. I think she will have a great career. Congratulations to both ladies for this high level match.

Although she didn't win this match we deserve to see more of Parks on tours.

WE NEED MORE OF PARKS

[@ordinaryguy6869]

Barbora Krejcikova is rock solid and such a smart player.

[@ObservingtheMatrix]

You could see the nerves in her shots today. She was a little more heavy footed. But that will change soon. Parks is definitely one to watch !

[@kevinpatrickcarey3741]

Good showing Miss Park's, keep putting in the hard work, your reward is coming.

[@fanniebutler4540]

Congrats to winner Krejcikova! Wonderful run in this tourney for Alycia. She has tools to be a #1 player or at least a top ten player.

[@seensay2132]

I definitely see a Grand Slam champ and potential #1 player in her future!

[@senorgato70]

Despite this loss, I am so excited for Alycia Parks. Her strokes are so sound and she's an incredible athlete. Once she finds consistency she will easily be a mainstay in the Top10 if not Top5. Alycia looked a bit tired in this match after that first set so maybe being 135 in the world, she needs to get used to playing deeper into tournaments. Outside of Kvitova, no other player makes me want to match out of any player in the past 5 years.

[@mariadasgracassantos9926]

Apenas o começo Parks pra cima parabéns barbora!

I am very interested to see what Alycia does next.

[@bahacho]

Parks has the potential to win a slam.

[@Zenon-fg4dw]

Parks had a great run; expect to see more great things from her in the near future. She is an exciting new talent. She is still growing in her skills set. Her game has a lot of upside.

[@razynh3190]

[@willybeama1]

Once you get in Barbara’s angles, it is so difficult to get out of them. She can really move you around the court. She isn’t super powerful but her angles and defense are quite formidable.

[@pacifiquembaraga5560]

Parks is here present and she is not done yet!

[@itsembersreality]

Parks is just going through what every breakthrough playing on the womens side is face, Serena left a legacy where power and service placement have to be the basics to win a masters but shes got it down so now she has to find her style that will beat others with that same base....love her game so far and you dont have to give me many reason to support another black woman on tour. Her and coco are probably the closest form wise but there are a few others who I hope to see soon rise to another level

[@donriskey5940]

Nice game

[@mtmxmr]

Miss Parks should be on every wta players radar This woman is something serious! Appears to have more depth and fearless lights out tennis them any of the top US women rn.

Gratulace z Polski, Barbora and BIG HUGS to all Czechs! ❤️

[@corgeousgeorge]

Kreijikova played well here, great week by Parks, hopefully she can build off the momentum. She really had it close in that first set. I think if she got that first set she would have taken the match but thats' how the cookie crumbles. Good effort overall.

I think Park is a complete player, Coco is tented but not to the level of Alycia Park, her crazy groundstrokes , speedy footwork and a monster serve is what made me see the vibes of Serena Williams., the style of her play is similar to Serena's game. , I will never fail to watch her matches.

[@васядядя-л8ч]

Parks

[@demigod1013]

Parks an aspiring one-trick pony with the hard serve.

[@willybeama1]

I saw her other matches. She is definitely more than one trick. Her angles, depth of shot, and serve are already quite good. Her returns are good but need more work. She could also use more spins. I would say, for a power player, she has pretty good defense and good bet skills. She isn’t afraid to come to net. She does however need to find better strategies when coming to net and controlling the baseline. A solid week for her. We will see. I don’t really see the Serena comparisons everyone seems to be talking about because Serena hit heavy shots. Park’s hits fast shots powerful shots but they aren’t as heavy. Serena’s defense, especially in her prime, were far superior to Parks. But she is young and clearly hungry. I’m interested in seeing her trajectory.

[@Grateful1118]

@@willybeama1 agreed and im excited for her..need a new coach to get more knowlegde and strategy..

[@einarsd4]

Both played well and Parks deserves credit for her achievements in this tournament. Krejcikova won this match, but Parks wasn't easy opponent for her at all. Krejcikova had to use all of her experience to win this match. This match was great to watch and Krejcikova's experience triumphed over Park's youth. I wanted Parks to win this match, but I am still happy that Krejcikova won. Despite Krejcikova unfairly winning Tallinn Open last week (she took obviously fake MTO in her Semi-Final match against Bencic) I still love Krejcikova as an athlete. Barbora Krejcikova despite her questionable sportsmanship and gamesmanship conduct is very friendly tennis player and is one of my favorite female tennis players. Alycia Parks played great, but in the end she was too fatigued too keep up with Krejcikova's pace for long. Alycia Parks needs to improve her serve, receiving and athleticism. Overall I see Parks as a top 3 or maybe even world #1 material. She could rival even Swiatek if she will improve those parts which I mentioned before.
