43:50 This was my favorite moment in one of my favorite matches. Keys just smiling at that 2nd serve ace like "what are you gonna do?"

[@angelatanurdzic7508]

Great performance by Naomi.👏❤️

[@Douglas-1]

It’s pretty strange how in this match, Keys was the more accomplished player than Osaka, having made numerous semis and the final at the US Open this previous year. Yet, the biggest difference between Osaka and Keys is that Osaka thrives on the biggest stage while Keys, time and time again, had struggled to bring her best tennis on the biggest stage. Since this match, Naomi has gone on to win this tournament and 3 more grand slam tournaments, and has really become the best player on the tour with her game and improved mental game over the last couple of years. Still believe Madison has a chance to win a slam, when she plays well, her game is pretty much unstoppable. She has the talent to win and hopefully she will win a slam one day. This was such a breakthrough win for Osaka, beating Keys for the first time in her career. I’m still impressed with how she managed to save 13 of 13 break points.

Keys is the Queen of Unforced Errors

[@mghanismail3164]

Key need to improve her mental strength and level of desire to win, put more enthusiasm on her play. Mental strength is very2 important.

@@jeffreykaufmann2867 people make mistakes tennis players would understand. Yesterday I was hitting terribly today I hit the ball with so mi Uc spin and power. Clearly you aren’t a tennis player

@@jaelynbishop4675 Keys is consistent in making a lot of Unforced errors. It's a fact

[@paigehere5176]

Not strange at all. Osaka is far more talented with better technique, Keys just hits as hard as she can and prays it lands in.

I am still expecting to see the 2018 women final. Full match on KZbin please.

I agree, she's the rising ⭐star

[@Schoonie7626]

With all due respect Osaka is the $$hit. She looked gorgeous for this match. Hot!!

[@jason7945]

I love Osaka, but its interesting that Serena's losing to Osaka after Sasha, who was Serena's coach first, became Osaka's coach.

[@AB_15]

That happens ALL THE TIME with pretty much every player in the WTA 😂

[@kennethfajardo1984]

Serene’s hitting partner, not coach.

[@antoinitaviolette4140]

Real Nice game, Naomi! Your mind was stayed on your game, and it is evident that you played your mental and spiritual game before the match. You were settled on your own focus and attitude. Congratulations 🎉

[@xnow1936]

that second game in the second set is insane

[@sevraonic8656]

Finally! The commentators should really stop talking whenever a game is playing, it's taking out some exciting moments in a game. The commentators here are so annoying, trying so hard to give information. Mckenroe is still the best, no bs comments.

[@erniehendry3907]

​Finally, after all this years.

[@moxide]

If only Keys had better control of her forehand and hve less unforced errors she could hve a Major by now.

[@antoinitaviolette4140]

wonderful commentators!

[@strikebr]

Funny to see the speakers praising every point of Keys. They seem to be very unhappy with Osaka's win.

[@axhist2421]

I was watching this on livestream. I’m an Osaka fan, but I sympathized with Keys when she showed emotions at 43:59, 49:28, and 01:04:27. I can tell that she was counting on this tournament and was facing huge pressure during this match.

[@alexjackman2049]

Osaka vs Serena? And if you’ve uploaded it, can you un-geoblock it for Canada?

[@austinkjung]

They will never post it because of the controversy.

[@faridy92]

@@austinkjung couldn't agree more. It's just so obvious now. They have uploaded 2019 & 2020 finals and skipped 2018.

[@alexjackman2049]

I agree. Although, they did upload Stosur vs Serena and that has Serena’s little argument with the umpire calling her “unattractive inside”.

[@alexjackman2049]

But that happened on a changeover, so maybe they edited that out.

@@jyvenmcresan1628 because there was no real controversy in 2019. Maybe they're trying to minimize the negativity that would occur in the comments.

Arghhhh can't wait for the final match!

[@mghanismail3164]

Madison is a talented player but she lacks the stamina and fitness which is vital to be a champion. If she can overcome that she will be great.

[@jonprou8302]

He knew all Serena’s moves over the years. And he taught them to Osaka. Now Serena can’t beat her when it counts. I just hope and pray Serena doesn’t give up she still has a few slams in her. I believe!!!!!

Wow, the commentators are os biased. And, its not even Serena

[@mithungangolli]

Whag I saw in this match and although i clearlg find osaka a better player than Serena when they play each other ..... with keys I dont see osaka superior. The match seemed totally on keys racket here and not even once did I feel osaka was dominating . She just kept the ball in kept thr pace decent and let keys make the fuckups . In thr final osaka outplayed Serena and there I saw the talent. In this match yo me it was all keys . Yet its best she reached the finals . Keys wouldn't last Serena às she can'tbe consistent and powerful at the same time like Serena
