Serena Williams v Karolina Pliskova match highlights (QF) | Australian Open 2019

[@gonzaloferrifracchioni954]

Amazing comeback from Pliskova. She showed how important it is to keep it cool in crucial moments. Go Karolina! 🙌🏻🔥

Her controlled aggressive game works well. She used it to her full advantage.

serena tank this match, she was not emotionally ready to play Osaka and I understand her, I knew when Osaka Win Serena will make no effort

[@andycouncil5470]

@@wilsonlauws7783 The only thing obvious about her injury was the fake set up just before to keep herself out of the position so she could make a stab and gently "roll" an ankle. I told my wife with 100% certainty that the GOAT was going to throw this match. At match point I admitted that I was wrong. Then when I saw her step on the line WAY before serving I knew she was going to "create" a situation of being wronged that she could later handle graciously, affording her the opportunity to re-write her legacy that was so tarnished at the US Open. Only someone that is obsessed as me with watching Serena for 20+ years could see the "out of position" set up before the ankle roll. That's just not Serena. The GOAT is also a genius. Osaka/Bajin was the first and only cluster match up for Serena. I hope the GOAT won't run from Osaka now that she Is not also facing a secondary psychological opponent in Sascha. Still a nightmare matchup.

I disagree with this. There are a lot more components that go into winning a slam. The draw, physical endurance , mental endurance , coaching. Hard work alone is not a deciding factor. There are so many great players that never won a slam that were extremely hardworking. Tim henman, safina, dementieva, tommy haas, andy murray.

Isn't it ironic, leading 5-1 but then she lost 5-7. Despite of her age, it is time for her to retire while she's still the top player, it would do her great.

She already has written records yet needs to be overcome, which I believe it will be difficult to do so by other players. People can see how she isn't responding opponent's balls as fast and quick as she used to be. But nobody doubted that she still gets the spirits. Only it isn't enough to bring back victories of any grand slams. Mind us all, her last GS title achieved was AO 3 years ago, and look how much weight she gained since. I always admire her spirit and her dedication and achievements, and this game is sad for me to watch.

Ploskova is a quality player so I dunno. Just wasn’t Serena’s day. Serena was so aggressive and then she became so passive for seemingly no reason. I did notice Serena looked winded. I wonder if she just got tired?

As long as I know, tennis is about who plays better, not who behaves the best.

Serena was low key relieved when she lost after discovering that Osaka was her next opponent haha

Please go wow! From 5 - 1 to 5-7 can any other player make it happen?

yes Serena AO 2003

23 Grand slam winner cries like a baby after loosing every point. Even babies dont whine so much. Never seen such a champion. Champion always needs to be calm and composed. Doesnt cry, whine every now and then. If Pliscova had cried so much when Serena was on Match point, she could have easily lost the match.

[@ravipal884]

She cries a like a baby Becoz she want to win. Not like u looser.. How many open uh won ? Who the hell are uh ???

[@nemospence2724]

It means she doesn't deserve those 23 grand slams. Because she cannot act like a champion. It must be forfeited.

I honestly believe Serena gassed out. She is not in shape to keep up that type of exterzition. This match was 2 hour plus in the sun. Pliskova played awesome and serena could never break her serve. I love Serena but she can't expect not to train hard and come out and win like she's accustomed to. Time has changed, she does better when she single and doesn't have all these other business going on.

what a horrible comment here!

[@bryanmartin5901]

Notice they edited out the fraudulent foot fault call because not one video angle showed evidence of a real foot fault. Also, all y’all saying “well done Karolina” should be saying “well done line judge” bc that man ruined this match and injured Serena’s ankle. It was ACE, game, set and match, till he stepped in for Margaret. Serena did not win ONE more point on serve, not ONE point on serve, after the fraudulent foot fault call. That is not Karolina but a cheating umpire who ruined the match and stole it from Serena who hit an ace and won fair and square.

[@surferatapollobay1341]

The key to beating Williams is to make her run..If players try to out hit her she usually wins. Margaret Court is still the greatest!!

@@anithabasavarajan1302 Definitely not in open era.. and in Margaret court time, there must be played only 3-4 rounds and whereas Serena has played 7 rounds in a grand slam throughout her career.. And most importantly, competition wasn't tough at the times of Margaret court whereas at Serena's times competition was and is very tough.. And more importantly, Chris evert and Martina Navratilova has said Serena is the GOAT .

Serena was arrogant in us open final. She used her daughter to hide her mistake. I love Serena before us open final. After seeing that match I really hate her so much. I want Osaka again beat Serena in semi final. Bt Serena already out from AO. If she went to semi final she even get high criticism because she will against Naomi Osaka. Naomi is very strong and her attitude itself destroy Serena.

I wanted another Serena vs Osaka match. Pliskova will be a tougher match up for Naomi than Serena. I want a Osaka vs Kvitova final. Winner becomes #1 and wins the AO. Would be super cool. By the way I have a Tennis WhatsApp group for both ATP and WTA combined. We have around 45-50 members. Its mostly tennis and a bit of chit chat. If you are interested in joining the group please ping me up on this number. [phone] Thanks
