[@kofipokuantwi-boateng5446]

​@IanJD71 Very funny comment. Most top athletes have unique physical advantages that separate them from the rest. It's like saying Davenport won less because she didn't have Steffi Graf's movement. I don't have a problem if you feel Steffi is better, but using Serena's power against her is ridiculous. The are some players who were more powerful than Serena but won less.

I was at this match with my niece! I thought Serena was going to lose and didn't want to see it. I drag my niece out of the stadium and quickly walked down the stairs, out to the field area, making our way on the boardwalk to the train. My niece was listening still on the AMEX headphone and she was laughing at me. When we got on the train, someone said Serena WON, and I was like no way! My niece smiled and said, we should have stayed! I regretted leaving but I felt I was like Hancock in some way and the further I went the more power she had to win (LOL - the thinking of a fan). I've watched this match and the 2013 match over and over again. Best match by the two ladies at the US Open in a while and high quality! One of my favorite memories going to the US Open and watching Serena play!

Tennis players can learn so much from your game and your fighting spirit. You are simply the best. You are la crème de la crème in tennis. Serena, you traumatized poor Zaza; from serving from the match to fighting for the match.

To me Serena Williams is the greatest tennis player on every level. thriving on gutsy love for the game!! Her box reflects the love, this I've seen and felt also from the boxes of Naomi Osaka, Coco Gauff and Leyla Fernadess. Mostly the boxes are against the opponents they, don't and can not respect the other player. Orcene Price has been seen many times applauding opponents. Hence LOVE for the game!!!!

[@ronald.espiritu]

This kind of hitting that I never see a lot recently from Serena, she nowadays slowdown changed her intensity & powerful serve & game. After she gave birth I dnt see her sharpness anymore & I miss like this kind of focus she hand out in a game. The way new champions are trained if she can’t play like this & level like this anymore IT IS NOT EASY FOR HER TO GET MORE 🏆🏆🏆... can she put back Bachin back to her trainer team? Hope she can do that!
