Honestly I think Bouchard played very well today! But Halep is really on fire 🔥 Go Simona!

[@skmalaujitra9580]

halep lose alway

[@noabengosu]

she's not really on fire....she is a little tired from a very busy period: Fed Cup, Doha until final and now Dubai....she could have beaten Bouchard a lot easier if she was more rested...

[@footfault1941]

Dan Liu agree. Excitement of this match was due largely, as pointed out, to an excellent performance by Bouchard (Simona barely fails)! Her comeback is on slow pace, but steadily progressing. On the right track. A tight match for Bouchard, while for Halep not a serious threat was seen. Even could have gone the distance. She's fit again. Halep's consistency makes a marked difference to that of Naomi (sad, what happened?!). Ranking doesn't matter too much as she said, she's fully focused on her game. As a consequence, a gap in point getting narrower. Great!

[@GuibinXu]

Great highlight, wish I can find the whole match. Congrats to Simona, she is the better athletes and amazing quality! Genie looks a lot better today, her game had command and purpose, the whipping forehand is opening the court more too, wish her a great season!

[@h29209983520]

Some very good signs from Bouchard. At least she finally started to put her attentions to tennis. In order to compete with top players, she still has some rooms to improve.

[@17sunnyhour]

I really really hope Simona resumes back to being the WTA's World no. 1

Bouchard looking stronger but not strong enough for the Simona Tigress.

[@Readyteddygo]

Has anyone noticed that Bouchard always looks off balance after a shot?

[@brodaism]

That's her problem as i see. Slow in preparation, rushing into the shot, sudden acceleration of racket instead of smooth and head is unstable. Her coaches at junior level to be blamed for this to some extent.

[@brodaism]

Serve action at first glance looks smooth and efficient. Backhand is where she is too unbalanced. Good player in general, needs to work harder!

Wta and ATP always give highlights of the announcers more so than the players

[@djfan1039]

Hey, when will u add highlights with Aryna Sabalenka??

[@4hopper4]

A couple of years down the road the tables will turn on this matchup. When Genie misses she misses big and I'm not sure if her serve will ever get her near the top but a good effort to-day.

[@1993Ski]

Her serve is getting better, she is serving around 68% first serve and 180km usually but right now she has an abdominal strain that's why she was struggling so much on her serve, she pulled out of Acapulco next week because of it!

[@kamipersonal2687]

where is simo amazing shot when she did a fantastic passing after bouchard smash? it was at simo advantage after she took first game in second set.

[@mioaragidescu5198]

bravoo simona ,felicitari!!!

Engene Bouchard should consider modelling fultime.

[@uniteangels]

yeah bouchard played very well today all credit to her

[@ricklee5431]

If you're a punter, this one was a no-brainer.

[@abujabi]

Seems like Bouchard is trying to take the ball early but ends up rushing her shots a lot of the time. She isn't taking those extra 2-3 steps to line herself to hit a better placed shot.

[@MrTenniskiller]

The comeback of a beautiful lady!!!

[@susu-dr3sb]

you really did a great job tho Genie👍🏻

[@aycaramba6225]

Bouchard is playing way better

[@davidwhite4997]

It looked like an improvement for Eugenie, even if she lost. She definitely let the tiebreaker in the first set get away from her because she was a bit lazy about her footwork again. She needs to concentrate on that more. If she had been prepared slightly earlier (and she had time to do so) for the volley that went long, it probably would have been good. To be at the top you cannot allow yourself minor errors that are really mental errors. There were also times when she should have gone down the line closer to the line on a forehand or backhand shot. That would have produced winners; or it would have at least gotten Halep farther out of position. It would have at the least put more pressure on Halep; and more constant pressure will produce more errors eventually. Bouchard needs to practice those down the line shots nearer the line, so she has the confidence to hit them when they will do her some good. I am not saying they should be on the line; but Bouchard too often put them 6 ft. or so from the sideline. 2-3 ft. from the sideline would have allowed some room for error; and it would have put a lot more pressure on Halep.

[@howensung6968]

Mertens wins in Doha but nobody cares; Halep wins the 2nd round in Dubai and everyone cheers, that's strange🤔

[@kamipersonal2687]

because mertens cheated in doha. then everybody blasted her on facebook considering she took false medical, then she lost 1st round of dubai to prove she was really sick,, or simply because she could not win without tricks... bad mertens!

[@bmw-e30]

A bad influence that money has on the game when you see a top player like Halep playing in a largely empty stadium.

[@MakyoD]

Good match but Bouchard needs a new footwork coach

[@phongvong5470]

The More You Play; The Better Achievement Accrues.

[@ramyg5037]

Genie's serve action has changed a little bit...

[@kecleonboi]

around :55 "she (simona) is the complete player in every sense." UHHH she still can't volley for crap to help put a point away. damn she could save some time if she learned how to volley.

[@jordanaus75]

Totally agree. She could have won the big close matches with a finishing net game, decent slice and decent second serve. Am not sure why she is not working on developing these things. She would had beaten S. Williams in the Aussie Open if she had these skills under her belt.

[@dimvalsgames9721]

Genie you are gorgeous great game keep fighting and the results will come again..!! Halep is the goat awesome game for both girls. :)

[@yuzo0602]

Though Bouchard must improve her backhand and still has room to improve her service, she did well, compared to before. But Halep is coming back. She could get back No.1 sooner.

[@1993Ski]

Her serve is getting better, she is serving around 68% first serve and 180km usually but right now she has an abdominal strain that's why she was struggling so much on her serve, she pulled out of Acapulco next week because of it! Go watch the hightlights of her match against Carla Suarez Navaro in Luxembourg last october. and YES Halep will for sure get the No.1 spot back very soon!!

[@yuzo0602]

@@1993Ski You seem to refer to a wrong stats. See the stats on the WTA official. It says btw Halep and Bouchard for 1st service: 70% - 46%, 1st serve won: 79% - 81% ......... Total service point: 68 - 60. But I am not talking about those figures but about the way how Bouchard hits service. Before that, watch the video and take a look at how Halep hits her service. She is 5'6'' while Bouchard is 5'10". Halep is one of the shortest players in WTA 20. But her service motion is very beautiful and also functional. It works well and produces enough service points. Meanwhile, Bouchard's looks clumsy and doesn't work well. Her backhand is much worse than it. She isn't using her hight for her service at all. That's why I said Bouchard must improve her backhand and service.

[@1993Ski]

I wasn't talking about her stats in this match, obviously she didn't serve well compared to how she usually serve, that was my point! i agree she has things to improve (like everyone else of course) but i just wanted to say that when she is not bother by an injury her serve is getting pretty good these past few months. It was messy yesterday because of her abdominal injury! @@yuzo0602
