The best thing about her is her attitude, judgment, and work ethic. She is one of a very few women players who hasn't had a parent running the show. All by herself, she has hired each team member and, with their help, decided how to deal with her weaknesses, like her serve when that was an issue. She doesn't blame other people when things go wrong. Instead, she figures out what went wrong and works harder to fix it. And, maybe more than for any player, man or woman, she has fun off the court and is clearly loving every minute of being a world-class tennis player at the top of her game. She is really an inspiration for anyone who is trying to get better at anything while having a good time doing it.

[@squidjames7735]

... and her screaming/screeching? i mean her cheating? always gonna be remembered for that, just like screamapova.

[@jakubpawluczuk3228]

I hope there will be final in wta finals between Iga and Sabalenka for the no.1 spot

[@nethlieulyssefils-aime7481]

She continues to improve her game, that's a good thing

[@Courtside_Tennis]

And it’s also a scary thing for her opponents because she keeps getting better.💪🏻

[@RR-mv1vr]

No coach change looking for an easy way out of her serving crisis she just got her head down and works through it truly amazing

[@bensherwood777]

Can you do a video for the small and mighty Jasmine Paolini? 🙏

[@MegaAndrea0000]

Aryna is the biggest player person personality in nowadays tennis ❤

[@Whisper555]

You sort of touched on it, but 2024 US Open Sabalenka was far more well rounded a player than 2023 US Open Sabalenka. Volley, Drop shot, Smash (better than some men in terms of execution and outcome truth be told) and shot/target selections. TLDR 2024 US Open Sabalenka plays smarter now, bit still backed by the big weapons. The shot Sabalenka needs to improve is the slice/block forehand. That will improve her serve returns and get the point started.

[@kevineyk]

I think that the worst matchups for Sabalenka are: Vekic, Anisimova and Muchova

[@DavidChapman-hu2eq]

At her best serve massive power net volleys drop shots fierce attitude aryna is unplayable and unstoppable go girl❤

[@Courtside_Tennis]

Especially on hardcourts

[@wahn10]

Aryna's mentality and attitude are so strong, and she keeps adding elements to her game. I think she definitely has a chance to reach #1 again and also win Wimbledon. I'm excited to see how it all unfolds.

[@Courtside_Tennis]

Me too!

[@adrianam1009]

Fantastic video , wonderful technical description.👍🎾❤

[@Poppythepricelesscat]

Can you also make a video about ons jabuer?

[@KarinBotha-t9i]

Aryna Sabalenka will be number one again she's a strong woman we love ❤️ you tiger ❤️ 🐅

[@caratinkler1167]

I really hope people stop stereotyping her as a volatile player. She very clearly is one of if not the best on the WTA tour right now.

[@ZaydFredericks-jh9ts]

I became an instant fan of Sabalenka during her 2018 US Open series and pushed Osaka all the way

[@vladyslavdiumin4124]

Great video! 🎉🎉🎉Thanks for sharing, learned a lot about Saba! She is a fantastic player!😊

[@Courtside_Tennis]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@DianaFedak]

Today Saba is nr 1. Iga will need to adjust her game. It makes very exciting competition. I think Sabalenka will be 1 at the end of the year but I will be not surprised if Iga will adjust and win AO

[@abbynash9565]

Excellent, insightful, very well produced vid. I am even more enthused to follow womens' tennis going forward.

[@Courtside_Tennis]

Glad you enjoyed it! Women’s tennis is underrated❤️

[@MissMarg0tte]

Incredible technical vid here. Great job!

[@Courtside_Tennis]

Glad you liked it!

[@madgavin7568]

I think Saba will probably be #1 again by the end of this year. I do wonder how long a second #1 reign will last though.

[@Amazing_Mark]

🤣

[@SmithyPL]

She can lose it right after AO 2025, her losing early + Iga winning could change the ranking by around 3500 points in 1 week.

[@robbyten100]

​@@SmithyPLdoubt she loses early. Even if she doesn't win a third in a row she plays soooo well there. Her game just clicks in Australia

[@safin881]

Great video! Are you gonna cover the Asian swing? Miss your recaps

[@agungs8564]

Coco Gauff need to this, She need the work hard like Sabalenka

[@xxxxxxxx8634]

She can do this

[@alexcherry28]

It's incredible how she went from not being financed by national tennis federation because they thought she's is nothingness to becoming 5-time GS champion combined and world no.1 in singles and doubles

[@WillClark9]

Great video!

[@Courtside_Tennis]

Thanks!

[@nguoibantotnhat]

Sabalenka has become a nearly perfect player. Power, skill, endurance wise she tops my list. What scary about her is that she still can improve her game.

[@halohawkxx]

One Hander to a Two Handed Backhand? You got me right here😭😭 that's really been a journey so far, but I'm getting the mechanics for it down!

[@Courtside_Tennis]

Let’s gooo💪🏻

[@moiven7524]

[@SmithyPL]

She's 4:8 vs Iga so of course she is stoppable

[@kagakai7729]

Also an awesome personality

​@@SmithyPL Iga fans are too obsessed with Sabalenka i can't

[@danieljokinen2846]

@@SmithyPLI think we can all agree Iga is mentally way stronger, but when Aryna’s there her best is better than Iga’s best

[@phamhoangcaoson]

I really love your video. I have a question, do you know why Sabalenka has trouble against Vekic, Anisimova and Muchova. Just bad match up?

[@vanodne]

Strong woman. For pull plow.

[@edenschwartz5175]

Donna Vekic is her kryptonite

[@teej143]

I love Aryna’s gutsy power game. Very exciting to watch. I also love your rosy cheeks 😊

[@Courtside_Tennis]

Thank you

Please do diana shnaiders rise to the top next

[@chinyere6412]

So there’s hope for Coco🎉

[@Mzee1084]

Have you seen the video from the 2018 australian open when sabalenka was playing ash barty? She used many different styles of grunting from shot to shot. At times it mimicked Azarenka with the wooooh, other times the sharapova screech, or even the Aye Ahhh (I forget who used this one). When the 2 played again at the 2022 aussie open the crowd wouldn't leave her alone, and relentlessly mocked her for the grunting.

[@kingston4313]

Do raducanu

[@kwekuminta6410]

I want ega to be better no offense

[@chinyere6412]

You missed Donna VEKIC

[@Courtside_Tennis]

Kinda. Vekic leads their H2H 6-2 but 5 of those wins came before 2022 when Sabalenka was still honing her craft. Vekic beat Sabalenka this year in Dubai and she can actually match Sabalenka’s aggression, so yeah I totally agree.

[@killfire08]

Any chance we can talk about Thiago Seyboth Wild! I feel like he is up and comming, looks like federer when he plays besides the unforced errors. Effortless power, and floating around the court. He just beat D. Evans, beat JJ wolf, keeps up with the likes of Rublev, and just did well against medvedev but lost 7-5, 7-5.

[@nethlieulyssefils-aime7481]

🎉

[@wheresbaby7783]

What about Amanda Anis Anisimova? She beat someone like five times and her first years of Tennjs so what about Amanda and Anna mobile? You should’ve talked about her

You’re not the sharpest tool in the box are you

[@SmithyPL]

You have an error in your video... Iga destroyed her in Rome in 2 sets. Aryna was 1 point away from title in Madrid in 2024. In Rome Iga destroys her due to slow clay. Please check your facts

[@Aestheticc365]

Yes the clay merchant won in Rome but destroyed.... It was far from it

[@olita.a]

@@Aestheticc365 and Sabalenka is a hard court merchant, she can't win on other surfaces, Iga has more titles on hard than Saba, cry more

[@irenex3436]

@@olita.a She has 2 WTA 1000 titles on clay and multiple finals tho.

[@olita.a]

@@irenex3436 TITLES count, not finals, Iga has more titles on HARD than CLAY and clay is her better surface, there is a big difference between Iga and Aryna, just because she is currently in better form than Iga doesn't mean she is a better player overall. Moreover, Iga is 3 years younger than Aryna and has achieved much better results than Aryna at this age. Even the weeks in being number one speak for themselves.

[@irenex3436]

[@billtruttschel]

I don't find anything likable about Aryna Sabalenka. She reminds me of the evil Russian woman in Rocky.

[@Amazing_Mark]

If Sabalenka ever becomes number 1 then I won't be watching any more WTA tennis 🎾. I can't stand her grunting and shrieking, and I also don't want to watch a virtual man play (her style of play of trying to smash every ball for a winner is so boring).

[@GoVeganOrDie]

She already has been world no.1 - disagree with youe opinion she added elements to her game and plays with more variety than for example Iga.

[@Aestheticc365]

Please go and watch something we don't need u

[@harlan5102]

Oh please! Sabalenka isn’t progressing, she’s just facing competition that’s abysmal!

[@agungs8564]

Keep blind and keep crying you iga's fans

[@sp123]

*1ga

[@camera2painting]

A dumb comment. From 0 to 3 slams is progression. 2 slams in one season is progression. One 1000 tournament with 2 slams in the same season is progression. 16 WTA singles titles are progression. Sabalenka has been in the top 10 for over 4 years. If she isn't progressing, then the same must apply to Swiatek, as she is playing the same opponents. All her opponents are below her ranking, whereas Sabalenka has one player above her who is theoretically better. When she beat Swiatek in Cincinnati, that was progression.

[@olita.a]

​​@@camera2paintingIga is not "theoretically' better than Aryna, she just is and it's a pure fact. Iga has more titles, grand slams, weeks at being number 1, matches won this season etc. Sabalenka must work harder if she wants to achieve what Iga has already achieved.

[@waillachab284]

Talk about Switak who is good in just one surface and at best average in the other surfaces
