Just looking at her record. I didn't realize that she has a career slam. To do that from just 5 slams is remarkable and shows her versatility.

[@dylanstreibig9234]

Good lord, she had an awesome serve pre injury. I had forgotten how good it was.

[@yerocgi]

Dylan Streibig her career was one injury after another it’s amazing she lasted as long as she did I miss her

[@dylanstreibig9234]

Your right, but look at what she was able to accomplish in spite of the injuries. Just incredible. Such a competitor. I miss her on the court too, but am glad she is no longer putting her body through hell.

[@yerocgi]

[@marfu1119]

​@@AoDk673Is true, the WTA at moment is a joke. The 2024 Australian Open final was a joke too. Apparently the girl that lost in the final, in the tournament she didn't face anyone in the top 50 en route to the final.

[@AdyHh-up9ez]

Problem is slowing down courts has made players play with just spin. So u don't see risky shotmaking anymore. Flat hitting is there but it doesn't win slams..every tournament plays like clay. That's why iga is dominant. Her spin game won't have won her slams in 2000,s

[@POObumpoopo]

So much juice between the two, but I'd still rather watch this than any recent slam final.

До чего же всегда утонченно и элегантно смотрелась Шарапова на корте. Сила, красота, элегантность. Такие тяжёлые матчи тащила. Никогда не позволяла лишним эмоциям взять верх. Достойная соперница каждой теннисистке и королева тенниса навсегда. ❤❤❤

[@jodyvance1554]

Henine was such a brilliant player. Great defense, so fundamentally sound, incredible mental composure, that bonkers one-handed backhand, and the best volleyer on the WTA tour of her era. Sharapova was a better version of Kvitova and Sabalenka.

[@kusmarchonok]

Great quality

[@phucluu100]

Sharapova used to have second serves, overheads and forehands

[@svichky]

She retained her forehand though.

Giulio Campi yea Maria was doing at the time .. she had similar play in the 2008 Australian open.. due to dopping.. henin of course was no angel .. had her fair share of bad antics .. but taking illegal substances is worse

Nathan Graham it wasn’t doping at the time. and come up with an original comment. it’s not that funny of a comment. but trolls always spam the 😂🤣 emoji like they said something hilarious

[@Ineddiblehulk]

Henin was doping too. Clijsters tried to get the authorities to take action but they wouldn’t. It’s speculated that’s why she had an immediate ‘retirement’ that lasted the same length as a suspension.

[@Dimitris-wx6hn]

I dont know why it feels like this tenis is more interesting than what i see the last couple of years e.x rybakina swiatek... These girls only play with tremendous level of power no spins no slices and goes on... Only Barty reminded of previous women but she left the courts... Henin was such a pleasure to watch and groundstrokes of Sharapova always an issue for anyone to handle succesfully... You could see more running on court experience more tense between players ... Today we know swiatek wins everything and rest to close first 5 hit the ball like a thumderbolt droped on the ball... For example Sabalenka... If she gets a return just a few inces right or left she losses the piont most pf the times cause she cant run at all cause her ball is super strong and if it happens to be returned the same way she stays like a statue watching it passes by... Rybakina the same... Swiatek with less strong serve playes more technically but thats not enough to admire today's tennis more or equally to the tenis before them... Sharapova for example could run all around williams the same even playing with such power she teleporting herself anywhere... Henin here the same... We have to wait another 10 years to see if something will change...❤❤❤

[@rozaliyanasyrova3050]

Мария, потрясная ❤🌹

[@chillguy102]

wait wait she barely makes noise in the early part of this match, so mostly her grunts have been to try and intimidate...no surprise

[@jboww2121]

it’s more physically exhausting towards the end of the match. on very few occasions does maria not grunt. serena chooses when she wants to grunt. and can be just as loud as maria. serena will stay quiet for the first set and scream the second. or only grunt for the later part of sets or even only grunt during the later parts of long points. consistent grunts are less of a distraction then players choosing when to grunt. if you hate maria for grunting then have that same energy for the rest of the players.

[@redbunnytail9528]

The super awesome Nike campaign. How they know Serena or Venus not gonna win the Open, gift Sharapova with the most awesome ad campaign of all time? The 'I Feel Pretty' ad from Nike. Play every commercial break. HOW they know it Maria's time to win the Open? They never try it again. Nike, sometime, they on another level. 'I feel pretty. Oh so pretty. I feel pretty and witty and bright? And I pity, any girl who isn't me, tonight.' This the best tournament for favorite player, I ever experience.

[@pierdomenicosommati443]

Less screaming (sometimes even completely silent), more good hitting and better point construction than usual, better net play, no bad glances at her opponent with even a nice final kiss, and winning against a great player... this was by far the best Sharapova ever, focused into producing great tennis and not in wasting energies with screams and pumping fists. Not the best day for Justine, who usually handled Sharapova well, but Maria played great.
