Muchova has become my favourite player on the WTA tour. Her style is so fantasticly eclectic. So versatile and creative. I love watching her play. It's so exciting.

[@juismac]

Muchova has a lot of variety to her game. When she’s on form she can beat most players in the world. Hopefully she will win her first title since 2019 and her very first WTA title above 250 level.

[@michaelhasenfratz3443]

@@juismac Totally agree!

[@zrob8]

This was the exact reason she became my favorite back in 2023 when she broke out in Roland Garros. It's criminal that someone with her athleticism and talent only has one 250 title to her name. Hoping her injury doesn't hold her back here.

[@stefanossmitty3318]

I co-sign this 💯 percent. Definitely stands out from the pack. Hopefully she can put together a deep run at another slam soon.

[@mindywong3839]

She may have just one title but she has gone deep in all 4 GSs. Shows how versatile she is to be able to conquer all surfaces. Talent + beauty + great personality. I first noticed her during SF of US Open 2023 because she looked so athletic in that outfit (with neon yellow underpants) that accentuated her toned physique. I was still rooting for coco then not knowing she would beat my fav player 2 more times. Nowadays I merely watch HER matches so I am kept busy when she goes deep...hahaha. AO 2025 I had a lot of free time as she lost in R2. I don't watch other players at all...boring baseline rallies. This QF match lasted almost 2.5 hours. I watched a recorded match without checking the result to suit my schedule.

[@Steve-i6p]

Karolina is such a great player to watch. I just hope she can avoid any more injuries - she never seems to get a break with her health. Keeping my fingers crossed for her!

[@mindywong3839]

Need to pray sincerely to the tennis gods to protect her.

[@ytee001]

Muchova is one of the few all-court female players, has a versatile game and always a pleasure to watch.

[@mindywong3839]

No grunting. No aggression. No drama. Only she smiles at ball kids.

[@bryancarson5908]

Karo just plays such pretty tennis! Feels like she utilizes every asset the sport was intended for

[@michaelhasenfratz3443]

So true!

[@jliang70]

She is playing the true all court tennis, with her game you see a bit of everything, serve and volley, drop shots, use of different spins, angles, varied depth, speed and height of her ground shots, quick transition from back of the court to the net. There is no other top 20 players play like her. Her tennis had that vintage artistry from players of the 80s and 90s and also from the likes of Federer. Muchova's favorite player is Federer. I am sure you can see the Federer influence on Muchova's game specially on that forehand.

[@bjornopitz6561]

She can even do an overhead smash! 😅 Love her!

[@stratuspei9405]

Muchova is so balanced when she hits. She makes winning shots look so simple. Hope she can play all the way with the thigh wrap.

[@ctbsancho2516]

Karolina plays tennis how tennis should be played. She may not be top of the world but she plays beautiful tennis.

[@MistyRodriguez-j1c]

Goooooo Karolina You got it 🤠,,,,, Win

[@lanacarvejal4977]

Vamos Karolina!!! adelante la dama del tennis

[@ceelo6369]

Congratulations Karolina 👍🏽 🎊 one of my favs!!!

[@MistyRodriguez-j1c]

😊 Goooooo Karo Go for it ,,You got it🙏

[@gseric4721]

Great fight from both players 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

[@mehmetdogaguvendi580]

It is always great to watch such a steadfast and fearless tennis competitor on the courts. Her devotion and perseverance totally make a brilliant impression. It is one of the most substantial aspects of the professional Czech tennis player. Muchova is such a remarkable player with her presence and precision.

[@edmariosantos4812]

Accurate, precise, full of stamina, straight to the point, goal-oriented - you name it! Congrats Muchova.

[@XTSY]

Not only her skill but the added value of her minded shots are the difference

[@leandroreyno969]

Muchova was one of my favorite player I love her style of play and very smart! also she look so cute!

[@luyin1961]

Wow, amazing how Muchova constructs her points and executes. She and Jabeur are the most fun to watch.

[@bpraise517]

Potapova's is so beautiful she's worth watching her lose.

[@j0s0]

COME ON MUCHOVA 🔥 SO GOOD!!!

[@jliang70]

An excellent win by Muchova. Potapova put up quite a fight in this match. Muchova's thigh problem clearly troubled her, she lost a a step or two in speed but made up for it with her usual craftiness and tactic. Hopefully the thigh injury is not serious.

[@AlejandroCompagnucci-f2f]

Muy bien KARO, que tenis.!.. Buen comienzo de 2025.!.

[@nelsonc6173]

Love love Karolina!!! But damn her injury history always rears it's ugly head! I hope she can win a slam this year! Her talent her game deserves one!

[@tennisblood]

Potapovskaya!!

[@miguelangelsanchezfernande7074]

Karolina muchova, la Federer femenina. Con eso está dicho todo. Es la jugadora más divertida de ver, la más versátil y la que tiene más recursos y variedad de juego❤

[@RonquixoteDIII]

I think finals with be Tauson vs Muchova and if so it will be interesting to see who can win their first 500

[@mindywong3839]

May not be. DY is quite dangerous.

[@Fuiape]

I like Potato! She out there like a MANIAC! Muchova is fantastic! Love her tennis style and vibe!

[@3618pierre]

Muchova a vraiment un jeu extrêmement beau et agréable à regarder tout comme Roger Federer ;D

[@armandoanderson3536]

Muchova's outfit so much better than the "gym" shorts she was wearing previously.

[@jomo4976]

artist vs baseline basher

[@mindywong3839]

Baseline basherS vs the talented and beautiful Kája.

[@poeda6637]

Wonderful tennis by Muchova again. Hope the injury is not too serious

[@zrob8]

Brilliant play from Muchova today. Her mobility wasn't terrible, but it was clearly hindered by her leg injury, which I can only guess is her hamstring. She played her usual precise tennis, used the whole court, and forced Anastasia to hit it where she could get it. Gutsy way to fight back and steal momentum back in the 3rd set. I also believe she's guaranteed to move up to 18th above Kalinskaya after this tournament

[@mindywong3839]

She is currently #17 (from #19) after advancing to the SF. She will be #16 if she lifts the trophy. AK retired from SF of a 250. This is 500. AK would be below Kája even if she had won the 250.

[@zrob8]

@mindywong3839 My math says that she needs to win the SF to pass Vekic. Unless she's protecting points, because she isn't playing in a tournament rn.

[@mindywong3839]

I watched the full match. Kája asked for a MTO to re-strap her thigh. Worrying...hope she will not retire in SF or F nor be injured for the 1000 x 2 coming up in the middle east a week from now. Her level dropped drastically in the 2nd set. Glad that she bounced back in time.

[@johanbotha7315]

I swear an AI can be more creative than the commentary here. My goodness

[@gmr7494]

Muchova is so damn beautiful to watch!

[@theodoreg]

It feels like Muchova opportunity, I hope she can do it.

[@rafaelafernandez1255]

👍👍👍👍👍👍❤

[@billydurham4143]

Is Pota ever going to get it going?

[@Vitaliy-qr2tm]

Playing on such tournaments already is a success for her!

[@angedominique9062]

Oui elle y arrivera car elle travaille dur pour ça....

[@LobsterFromMars]

She's still only 23, so maybe something will work out.

[@danilotorres231]

I can't believe that Karo lost with Osaka in the AO :(

[@nine6069]

Caroline i love you !!!

[@tishek78]

Nejtalentovanější tenistka na okruhu bez grandslamu, zbožňuju její variabilitu úderů❤

[@bentran4575]

Muchova's playstyle reminds me of Roger Federer

[@warsaw012]

Potapova? The girl Iga double bageled in just 40 minutes in 2024 RG?

[@gerardobaltodano]

Casado o divorciada, con o sin Sizicova a la par, Potapova sigue jugando mal y su tenis sigue igual, no evoluciona. Creo que es lo maximo que su talento puede darle. Lo que me gusta de ella y le admiro es que es quiza la tenista que tiene el mejor gusto en el vesturario. En eso me recuerda a Sharapova.

[@shannywilliam7732]

We are still waiting for that iga rematch....potapova needs to give 6.06.0 back to iga😅😅😅

[@nancycm]

I love Muchova’s tennis and I love watching Potapova lose. 💪🏼win-win

[@kbk-3921]

chova วางบอลแม่นแต่บางลูกต้องดึงจังหวะตีให้ช้าลง

[@IgorLeonidovich]

Potapova 🤮😬😡🤬👎

[@renatocarletti3627]

Per me il tennis oggi e'solo al femminile come lo sci alpino la pallavolo ecc.negli altri sport sono ancora indietro ma arriveranno..

[@GUTOMOFFICIAL]

Pota

[@fattonydavito7771]

Russia loose!

[@Vitaliy-qr2tm]

No russia loose because there is no russian flag 😅

[@angedominique9062]

Lose one battle... not the war.....

[@lucypedzinski1403]

NOT A WAR!.AN INVASION!!!
