Serena Williams vs Lucie Safarova | 2017 AO R2 | Highlights

[@kofipokuantwi-boateng5446]

Serena was very impressive in this tournament. She faced Belinda Bencic in the first round. She's a very dangerous player to face so early. This is her second round match against a player she faced less than 2 years before in the French open final. Lucie Safarova is a very good player. This is what players of this era face, yet people try to belittle their achievements and claim it's a weak era. The top 10 might not be as strong as the early to mid 2000s, but the top 50 is the strongest ever in history. Most players nowadays have 100 miles per hour serve, and are very athletic and strong. They can beat anyone on their day. Serena Williams is the GOAT.

this is my favorite tournament she has played... i know she was with child... but she was serving so well and hitting so clean... moving crisply... just total focus... she has shown spurts of this same form... i think she can get their again... just a little harder at 39 and post difficult child birth...but if there is anyone that can do it... It is Serena Williams

@Shinobu Tsurubushi lol… that’s funny… what more do you have

2017 Australian Open, the last Grand Slam title Serena won. Who would of thought. She looked in great form that tournament and the fact she was pregnant. Amazing

I never paid much attention to Safarova before but based on this match, I am a fan. Her slice serve is beautiful and she uses a lot of spin. Hard to read her ball directions.

I miss Lucie on WTA

[@forzacmo9069]

She's such a nice and respectful lady.

[@rbeeydwan4479]

She seems really sweet..I love her style of tennis!😍💕

[@mehulimondalrollno2749]

Safarova played very good but Serena Williams was perfect.

[@danielgoncalves8079]

Serena was furious at the reporter at the press conference who said this was a scrappy match

[@nickyb12345]

If this was sloppy what does this say about her opponents 😭😳

I love that she made him apologize. Hahaha

[@forzacmo9069]

OMG I was literally gonna ask you if you could upload this match on the other video. Thank you so much for all your great effort you put into making these wonderful highlights. This match in particular is underrated and barely anyone talks about it, Serena played really good and served pretty solid here.

V😮😮😮😮😮😮😅😅

Safarova was a dangerous player to play against that year, but Serena was too tough in the end. On a side note, I wish the commentary was more descriptive than just, "well played!". LOL.

[@elizabethc9843]

To think she was pregnant hare🤷🏾‍♀️🤷🏾‍♀️ momma played well 💕💃🏾💃🏾

[@rbeeydwan4479]

In did she truly did!!!👏🏽😏💕

[@hotmocha82]

She was louder here at almost every point and looked very pissed when she missed the balls (inc. those that were too good to be returned) That may have been influenced by the raging hormones from her pregnancy. Anyway, what she did here is beyond our ability mere humans.. Haha

[@lindadayholliday3485]

Simply the best !!

[@Nike5221]

Great Match!

[@Toddles1978]

I miss Lucie

[@carika5699]

Same bro

[@lolitvelasco4585]

So sad slamless entire her career.

[@antoniofung]

can the commentator tell me something i don't know

[@michael07seles]

Who knew this would be her last ever slam win

[@dinadechavez9607]

safarova and wozniakie both have a good character eventhough she is lost she will hug and kiss to her co player not the same sharapova always snob

[@wadeyyy]

Imagine thinking this is “scrappy”

[@mojgankaveh2390]

Serena👍👍👍👍👍👍👍❤️🧿

[@doksh5740]

Great match Serena, congrats 💕💕💕

[@keithpugh7538]

I remember this match, we were very close to Scare-Rena showing up had Safarova stayed even with Serena

[@sunilsunilkumar.g.n2438]

Lucie is always gave good competition to Serena her playing style very much similar to Kerber but not that much depth and sharp like Kerber, Serena played very well as usual.

[@stefanorussel3106]

N a journalist said Serena played a scrappy match 😢

[@geektifyy]

Lucie always gave Serena trouble. You never see Serena get aced as much as she did this match and it wasn’t even a lot. Lefties always gave her a problem with that spin

[@Remember_me882]

Are there any players whom Serena can’t quite read their serve???? So intriguing to see Safarova serve open wide!!!!

[@Ty0688]

Safarova was serving lol

[@MA-yh2ko]

Did Serena know she was pregnant at the time?
