Imagine winning a match with 30 winners and 5 aces, and the highlights only show one of those. You know you're allowed to take more than 2 minutes to edit this stuff right? Absolute garbage AO.

[@ThanhNguyen-zx5fy]

Congrats 1GA, tough first round.

[@GUTOMOFFICIAL]

Go Iga!

[@sodica81]

Igor Swiatek

[@Aceing87]

This highlight portrayed Iga as a pusher when in reality she hit 30 winners with 21 unforced compared to Sofia’s 18 and and 34 ues

[@thomasodenkirk6444]

This highlight was awful

[@brandonaldaymachuse6669]

But kenin is just more interesting and has the better looking game. The 18 winners vs 34 UE means she was the far more daring and aggressive player.

[@postive-vibes]

Inconsistent match from both, but Iga was big when it mattered most. With a tough draw, Iga will have to be strong each round.

[@DanhNguyen-gy7yk]

What a highlight! All about Kenin's winners...

[@Fizar73]

yes... the highlights shown are as if Kenin won this match

[@McKelT]

This is really a quarter final matchup. Unfortunately two grand slam champions faced each other in round one.

[@baechu9260]

Well done Iga❤

[@shafffffff]

Lets go igaa

[@rosaliediones4180]

Having early tough draws keeps Iga more on her toes...

[@kjron1548]

these comments suck! the conditions are tough people its hard to play when you cant see the ball on your serve. Then the heat, get a grip people.

[@magdalenaborek8350]

True. The one who was serving at the moment was in disadvantage. They couldn’t even see the ball. That might be the reason why Kenin lost the first set serving to close the set.

[@MoorishBrooklyn]

Iga tennis outfit is cool. Good colors.

[@muhdihsanshafie5932]

there is no twice miracle like 2020 Kenin , 1GA only the One ❤❤🎉

[@benthekeeshond545]

It is hard for most athletes to come back from injuries. By the way, wait till your 1GA runs into Elena Rybakina.

[@kimagz2000]

Kenin really needs to improve her ranking or else she’ll keep facing top seeded players in majors.

[@sibonisovilakazi3413]

I think players are intimidated when playing Iga.

[@MoorishBrooklyn]

Good warm up for Iga. Good job by Kenin to not make the Iga bagel and donut pop up shop appear.

[@Tommy-xt6st]

Whenever she loses a point, Kenin acts like a furious Russian woman. Kind of fun to see. The highlight does not show it though.

[@magdalenaborek8350]

She was literally complaining after every lost point😂

[@Daniela-rc6qg]

My God! Kenin is so prone to injury, always with some Bandage

[@My_handle243]

Brawo IGA. First match in the AO Grand Slam. Looks like maybe too many errors, but a good win. All the Best.💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋💥💥

[@hoppy747]

Well done Iga

[@xmini-ul7je]

The real number 1.

[@razgriz1ne1ne48]

I'll never understand how Kenin won a major. Her FH goes to the same 2 spots at same pace (which isnt alot either) She doesnt look up as she tosses the ball in the air on serve Doesnt have enough variety And even her ability as a defender is lacking in comparison to her peers.

[@gowzahr]

Muguruza double faulted on match point.

[@nishantthaccker1173]

@@gowzahr - lol, good one!

[@narcyznarcyz-uv4td]

Kenin. must improve her service if she wants to back on top. 140 - 160 km / h first serve is not going to give her any easy points .and this is a key to win games.

[@richardsargent6743]

3:12 mention to Kennon that she needs to improve on her serve and she goes ballistic I know I've tried before in the past and she won't listen!

[@myhomerealestate4710]

How do they determine the draw? These two key players should not have played in the 1st round.

[@nishantthaccker1173]

Why Kenin is not 100 so matched Iga

[@potzysk2]

It's a good thing Iga is the world's best at breaking serve, because she loses her serve quite a lot for a #1.

[@robertpeszek6892]

This is hard to judge from 3min highlights. She lost 2 breaks in 2 sets in this match, that does not seem a lot against opponent like Kenin. Djokovic lost 4 in 4 sets in his round 1, that would be the same breakpoint lost average.

[@AllMenMustServe]

@@robertpeszek6892 And you can't compare based on 1 match either. Djokovic has an 86% of service games won in his entire career vs Iga's 76%. It's day and night.

[@Pdadi93]

🔥

[@lilmofo4607]

Even though she lost, Kenin did way better against Iga this time than in the French Open finals

[@benthekeeshond545]

Iga is really good but wait till she runs into Elena.

[@pratikshetty14]

No Bagels.....disappointing!!

[@friedhotwings]

Iga is on the ropes already damn

[@amireallythatgrumpy6508]

Far from it. Just a rusty performance.

[@friedhotwings]

@@amireallythatgrumpy6508 I hope you’re right, for her sake

[@Oldsoulomni8]

Try to do a real highlights next time

[@joelbehne706]

WHY are we showing double faults in a 3 minute highlight? Come on Aussie TV, you can do better.

[@viking1au]

Poor resolution

[@BjornFlower-qx9ur]

Why already show the winner in the banner? Not funny.

[@rathy_v]

Best pkayer is swateg

[@sy6798]

케닌의 포핸드 타점을 교정할 필요가 있다.바깥쪽에 치우쳐 힘과 속도가 안 실림. 스윙속도와 체력이 스와텍에 밀림.

[@rupindersingh9952]

If Iga played like this against Ostapenko, Rybakina, or Sabalenka, she will be out in 2.

[@narcyznarcyz-uv4td]

Ostapenko likes playing against Swiatek .even if she plays her best tennis Ostapenko could win because of her return and power flat shots

[@Fizar73]

Yeah... could not agree more

[@bradleyowusu9589]

She literally owns Sabalenka

[@tennisobserver995]

@@bradleyowusu9589 they've never met here. That would be almost 50-50. 60% for Sabalenka if playing prowess on fast hard courts is the only criteria, but Sabalenka is just not not strong-minded like Iga. I'd give the slight edge to Sabalenka in AO though.

[@potzysk2]

5 aces, 0 double faults, 30 winners. Pretty good. 21 unforced errors could be better, but Kenin hits the ball hard.

[@tron_tler2009]

Too many errors from the world no. 1, disappointing to the eyes

[@mr.g2195]

A lot of Polish fans in the crowd. It looks like the match was taken place in Poland. I wonder why?

[@matiascono]

Iga you're the woman of my dreams I love you so much Will you marry me ?❤❤❤

[@TriggeredMonkey]

Poor match from Iga - forehand wasn't clicking - her mental strength and aura carried her. Needs to improve 100% for next round

[@sassysistaofss]

I didn’t watch the match but based on this highlight it seems like Sofia blew it!

[@SuperWhofan1]

Iga still doesn’t use a slice backhand to change things up or does she go to the net. She is vulnerable since other players can hit harder.

[@nishantthaccker1173]

Well Iga doesn't have a net game plus have you seen her technique/racquet head/strings ? -- it is very difficult to have control on shots which don't have top spin hence no volleys or backhand slices!..

[@guillermogodoy]

Que highlight tan chimbo vale

[@billyjoe7544]

Trash highlight..it mostly showed all kenin's winners.

[@Rndi9157]

Disgusting intro for all the highlight

[@anhey2943]

terrible highlights

[@kirrausanov]

Ms Swiatek, what happened to you blue-yellowish ribbon attached to your hat this year? Have you found a new "kosher" political cause to promote on the tennis court?
