Su-Wei reigning queen of doubles. What a legendary athlete.

[@kiabtoomlauj6249]

Great as she is, every time I watch a long rally, I 100% expect an opponent to hit to her right, straight down the double's line, with Hsieh just frozen in her feet, way inside the inner line. She's way too slow to do anything about that particular shot, with her stance being in the wrong place all the time. I'm puzzled she and her coach have not worked that out, because 90% of the free points against Hsieh is due to that ball placement.

[@km-rx2fg]

@@kiabtoomlauj6249I mean she’s won eight slams in doubles… so I guess whatever it is, it works.

[@flipswanepoel3554]

​@kiabtoomlauj6249 Her record speaks for itself, don't know what you are rambling on and on about basicly nothing.

[@MisterReZ]

​@@kiabtoomlauj6249thats the lowest percentage shot you can hit.

[@cjr21]

@@kiabtoomlauj6249i think you have a point but she makes up for it. I don’t think everyone has a perfect stance in doubles but they make do with how they play, and it’s working for her. I do see how she left the allies open and surprised they didn’t target those more.

What I love about Hsieh is her grit. All her opponents are younger and serves/hits harder and all of them think they can just beat her off the court...

[@kendaddi5857]

I never get tired of watching Hsieh in doubles. Her touches are so deft and deadly. Always able to do something special with the ball. Lovely match. Kudos to both teams. There has to be only one winner. Better luck next time to Ostapenko and partner.

[@belladonnagwynett1763]

at 38 she’s the reigning champion at RG, Wimbledon, and now the Aussie Open

[@swalterstennis]

Hsieh is incredible. Two doubles titles. She’s gonna get more.

[@gerrysabron]

two? this is her 7th doubles title.

[@swalterstennis]

Right, I meant now. She’s not done yet.

DOUBLE 👑DOUBLES👑 QUEEN of AO 2024 at 38 years old Su Wei Hsieh deserves a great tribute 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 ✨️🎾✨️🎾✨️🎾✨️

[@TheArriviste]

Su Wei’s anticipation, feel and court sense is 🤩🤩🤩

[@tr1ckster726]

Hsieh, legit one of the most entertaining players to watch cuz she plays such unorthodox shots

[@nicoalabat6670]

Hseih at first glance looks like she cant play, but when the ball goes her way players cant tell where she places them. Other team respected her skill that they literally avoided her, crazy amazing touch ..

[@comunidadaerea2400]

Hsieh has to be a lovely person. She is so polite. In the way how she hugs Mertens, says a lot about her. Congratulations to this lady and Mertens.

[@ptme2420]

Mixed dubs and women’s dubs champion! I heard she’s retiring after this AO? I hope it ain’t true! I love you Hsieh ❤

[@badmaru6699]

Shes retiring from singles not from dubs!

[@vjo095]

@@badmaru6699she clarified that she was only retiring from grandslam singles so she’ll be around in other singles events

[@corazonazultw]

She explained in one post mach interview the hardships when playing singles she needs to bring a whole bunch of professional team with her, but without sponsorship, that seems very difficult financially. It also causes stress and distraction when she played on court that may lead to injury. So that's why she decided to put on hold of playing singles. But she did not say never. I guess if there is change in financial support and with a good team, she is willing to try.

[@chenjdw]

India has Bopanna and Chinese Taipei has Hsieh. The 38 years old Hsieh has so far won 8 Grand Slam Doubles. It is a feat no other Asian woman player has achieved. Her unique style is based on precision and placement. There is not much power in her shots but her lobs, passing shots, angled slices, and quick hands at the net are deadly in Doubles. There is no question that her win in the AO would not have been possible without the hard and consistent hitting of Mertens - they won the Wimbledon Doubles several years back. It is hoped that they can team up again in the French/Wimbledon/US Open to see how far they can go.

[@alinaalina936]

Ostapenko and Kichenok, girls you were amazing! Congrats to winners!

[@raymondray8277]

2 for 2!!! Go Hsieh!

[@roysantiago9131]

Problem with Ostapenko is that she’s not really playing doubles. She’s still playing singles out there. Her flat powerful strokes are just hard for opponents to get back, but in terms of strategy and teamwork, she’s lacking

[@edwang9299]

Hsieh's hands are really magical ❤

[@liamlee8422]

Bow down to Suwei, the queen of doubles

[@weekendhacker]

You could be a complete hacker and team up with Hsieh and still win. She's the Queen.

[@mingwu4331]

It's very difficult for Kichenok to win her service games. She is not strong enough at the baseline, plus, Penko is so bad at the net.😅

[@CYEENOW]

Lmao it looked like Ostapenko got annoyed with Kichenok midway through the second set

[@yoskitomorioka5097]

Hsieh is a beast! double grand slam champion!!! congrats

[@fearsomebunny]

I think it's really interesting that despite Hsieh's slow serve yet there are no highlight reels of her opponent taking advantage of this.

[@corazonazultw]

In fact most hard-hitting player did not know how to take that soft/slow serve, and oftentimes result in many UEs.

[@cc4454]

If you actually watch her full matches, her opponents have a hard time returning her serve. I’ve been watching Hsieh for quite many years, and I would say about 50% of her opponent’s returns go out or into the net.

[@Martinus74]

Ostapenko must be a nightmare as a doubles partner.
