Rio Replay: Tennis Mixed Doubles Final Match

[@aryang4488]

Venus the most seasoned olympian here. And Bethanie just done so well in double world.

[@iankoabreudiaz4263]

Bro all the jack had no mercy for Venus. Venus did a good job carrying her partner. Well played👍🏽

[@Leomerya12]

Venus did all the heavy lifting.

[@zeeshawn15]

Duhh! YOU really thought an Indian will out peak an American? YOU DO know how unathletic Indians are? They play freaking cricket!!!

[@thunder300-v6v]

To be honest Badminton 🏸 doubles are far better than tennis 🎾 doubles

[@POObumpoopo]

More like Venus Williams vs Jack Sock, Bethanie Mattek-Sands, and Rajeev Ram.

[@mason1011]

not really . if that had been the case, it would of been 6-0 6-0 sock/sands

[@amandacerny8145]

venus is a BEAST

[@ariefhm]

i dont know in the whole match but in this highlight shows venus is so strong at the baseline but sometimes missed at the net, overall she’s so good.

[@Allen777Di]

Arief Muchwan it’s easy to cover half of the court. Tennis is all about the timing. If she is playing single with Sock, She may be able to return one ball, but not another form an opposite side of the baseline. But yet, she did a great job for her part

[@bryanmartin5901]

@@Allen777Di if it’s easier, why did Venus outperform Ram in all areas of this match? Venus had better volleys, better at the baseline, handled the power, pace and serving of Sock better.

[@bryanmartin5901]

When did she miss at net?

[@rrhotj]

venus looked tired. ram wasn't even chasing the balls from the baseline.

[@lukemair3192]

can we please talk about that second point in the highlights, venus toe toe to with jack sock forehands, she is elite!!!!!!!

[@myerklamb8529]

Venus' rock-solid backhand versus the ginormous Sock forehand was so fun to watch for the entirety of this match

[@erkeasx6217]

Its hard to win when its 1vs 2

[@KenWAnderson]

Jack, you and your tennis partner were brilliant here! Congratulations belatedly!

[@henrikhansen1716]

a little pity Venus could have been the first to win all 3 Olympic tennis disciplines. but still 4 gold (3 with Serena) and a silver and who knows maybe she will be in tokyo 2020

[@bryanmartin5901]

No matter. She stands alone with the most gold medals in tennis of any athlete, male or female. Along with her sister. Also, they “lost” this match to Americans. That means as Americans Venus and Rajeev still “won” gold bc they share all medals with their compatriots. Mark it down in the history books.

[@ngbinh85]

US is very strong in mixed doubles!

[@MetalMan40]

It’s like no matter who wins this one, the US will still get a gold metal

[@Max-yp1iw]

Dylan Wilken heavy metal

[@joeleder]

Love how Venus out-rallied sock at the baseline early. Not a common occurrence for most mortal women.

[@martynphillips2515]

Venus will be part of the doubles & mixed doubles in Tokyo 2020/21 she will goo for 7 medals @ the Olympics

[@felixluo450]

Is it just me or is Venus Williams screaming every time she hits, haven’t heard an actual scream in any pro games, but there have been players who made strange sounds when hitting so who knows?

[@sirpapichulo4956]

Venus is better than Rajeev xD

[@Guest-de6xm]

I feel like Venus had to settle for less with getting that partner because alot of people weren't interested because Venus isn't as good as her sister pffft bs hope she gets better partner next time

[@ARZ1987]

Poison_Hurts well Ram was a last minute alternate because I believe the Bryan’s pulled out for personal reasons... Venus was also a last addition to the mixed because she had unexpected losses in both her other events...

[@apaarmaheshwari8673]

Are you kidding me? Venus is better in doubles than Serena.

[@JCole-fg3rr]

Uhhh no, they only bring so many players over. Venus didn’t have any options.

[@JCole-fg3rr]

Apaar Maheshwari but Serena is the better player and much more mentally tough.

[@ChrisTennis]

Brings smile to my face

[@Cavalier.440]

Really, in all honesty who watch the match cuz apparently no one showed up in the stands . !

[@enacrt]

Mixed doubles tend to attract less viewers, which I think is a shame. It very interesting seeing both gender work together.

[@unicornfung]

Jack great player

[@jerryb1987]

To bad Venus had a weak partner.

[@ricclee8559]

Why not with one of the Bryan Brothers?

[@freiundschwerelos1133]

She wouldn't reach the final with a weak partner.

Andre D. Her partner was weak. Everyone who actually watched knows that.

[@ShaneFlett]

Im curious to know which each individual contributes in skill. My intuition tells me that women are flexible and men are power related, but how could to work intertwined? Or maybe im just way off and yeah.. cuz venus seems like she has power and finesse

[@berto7x85]

for tennis experts and enthusiasts, could you tell me why in doubles the third set isn't played 'fully' but goes directly to tie-break instead?

[@cmckenna0810]

It was done in an effort to get doubles more screen time with shorter matches, and to encourage singles players to get involved.

[@stephenomalley3616]

Peter Sampas/ram same mould - wow

[@jwedwa]

Full match?

[@kaylajones4356]

[@bryanmartin5901]

It’s pretty outrageous they would let the gold medal match be determined by a ten-point tiebreak instead of a full third set.

[@Equinnknox13]

Rajeev was the weak link of the 4 I think

[@samalheid6630]

So the team with the better male tennis player won

if your name is sock you should at least have the best socks on the court

Kind of wished it was more "swirl" doubles. It's a little too politically realistic to be athletically engaging.

[@kamyagupta4030]

[@drewveflin2842]

Tennis was a joke at these Olympics. Not because of the athletes, but the way it was ran, the camera quality, etc. No professional player should need to wave their hands around for a towel like Venus did at the beginning of the video.

[@bryanmartin5901]

So stupid that they wouldn’t let Venus just have the box set for Olympic gold in all tennis events in Olympics. I suppose they still “won” Gold bc they are American too-what’s mine is yours as compatriots at the Olympics. But, no, Sock and Mattek had to tree
