2019 Australian Open Final: Naomi Osaka vs. Petra Kvitova

[The_Grand_Slam]

Osaka looks like the new ATG tbh

 

[tenisplayrla08]

Yeah. Good to see that from Kvitova's perspective, some of this is still all gravy. She came very close to thinking her career could be over. From a seriously traumatic event.

 

[tenisplayrla08]

Just happy to get back to a grand slam final.

 

[kskate2]

Petra will have another chance. This should give her confidence that she can compete at this level. Hopefully she'll hold Wimby again

 

[tenisplayrla08]

But, Osaka now has as many slams as she does. Did it in 5 months.

 

[britbox]

I hope so.

 

[Federberg]

I always think she's the favourite to win Wimbledon. Even over Serena. Put it this way... P at her best at Wimbledon is the baddest chick on the planet to me

 

[tented]

Venus was amazing at Wimbledon, but it’s been years

 

[britbox]

I think she's winging the speech.

 

[Federberg]

yes agreed tented. Back in the day Venus was just impossible

 

[kskate2]

Venus was the best grass court player of her generation. Even over Serena.

 

[Federberg]

hasn't been her day for a long time though

 

[tenisplayrla08]

I mean... that's tough. Serena had her dominating wins over Venus and Venus had hers over Serena.

 

[kskate2]

that's ok. no one can take those 5 titles from her

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Vee was just a gazelle on grass.,great memories

 

[tenisplayrla08]

I used to give the edge to Venus too. But especially since Serena has continued to win them, it's really hard to put Venus over Serena.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Great speech from both ladies.

 

[Moxie]

I love that Naomi is a self-professed nerd and awkard person.

 

[tenisplayrla08]

Of course not. And I'd never want to take any of her titles. Love her immensely. And that battle with Davenport in 2005 was an all time great match.

 

[kskate2]

With her disease, Vee is not the same player
