2025 Australian Open Final: Sabalenka vs. Keys

[kskate2]

Woohoo! Maddy does it! Wins this thing on her 2nd CP. Great job. She beat #2 and #1 to win her maiden slam. I am very happy to be wrong. I thought Saba would do it in 3.

well it's tough defeat , she had to have been disappointed the way she played the first set.

Sorry that is bad sportsmanship Madison deserved her win, even when she lost the 2nd set, she held tough and believed

Maybe mate, but it's not her moment. Suck it up.

THAT WAS WELL Earned!!! The BH was the difference!!! She NEVER gave SABA control of the match is very telling!!

 

[Vince Evert]

Madison in tears what a match and what a tournament well deserved win!

Yes great win. What an Australian tour she's had, winning adelaide and now melbourne AO !

Thoroughly well deserved a popular win. This final is shades of Angelique's 2016 win over Serena who just like Sabalenka here, was a huge favourite to win. Go Madison

I also picked Saba in 3, though I am delighted for Madison

What a brilliant match Keys played. She kept her cool and again like in semis she really took the match. Really glad for her. Saba furious at the end while Keys made all those winners.l. I think Saba expected Maddy to fold, but she never did. Keys played match of her life, quality was quite high IMO.

 

[the AntiPusher]

If this match didnt move your emotions to tears, WELL !!

But i was supporting Madison !

I expected Madison to fold also, but the second set score was slightly flattering - Keys was still in there fighting and competing.

 

[Federberg]

what on earth Sabalenka. I'm a fan of your game, but that nonsense after the loss wasn't it!

Well done Keys. I thought you were going to figure out a way to lose. She should have multiple slams by now. I hope this is the start of something

I know I mean Saba should suck it up.

AP, your scrub all grown up now. Both hold a slam. Now, I just need Scone to gone call it a day and make way for some other folks.

She really beat the true big three Rabikina, IGA and Saba!! (plus the MRS MONFILS) the hardest draw EVER

What a great point Keys won the title with.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Oh No Jane in leopard skin we could be her all night she never shuts up
That was the fastest speech from Jane at the AO!

 

[Vince Evert]

THAT WAS WELL Earned!!! The BH was the difference!!! She NEVER gave SABA control of the match is very telling!!

Yes, she had the better preparation, winning at adelaide (my hometown) and now the AO both in style !!!

 

[kskate2]

What a great point Keys won the title with.

Won CP w/ a winner. That hardly ever happens. Usually the last point is won on an error.

 

[lomaha]

And the last one to best Madison was our own Clara Tauson...

Congrats to you Antipusher!! what a beautiful wedding present for Maddy and her husband.
