2025 Australian Open Final: Sabalenka vs. Keys

[MargaretMcAleer]

As for the coaching , they might as well put the coaches by the umpire chair to save time during change over SMH2

Or put a seat at the back of the court, where there player is, so they can get more coaching in, and the player dosent have to go over to these on court coaching boxes LOL! our game is getting more and more pathetic, though Craig Tiley CEO of Tennis Australia said they have been a big success.
Remember when tennis used to be an 'Individual Sport" back when Adam was a Boy!

Arnya's and Madison's Pressers:

Well said Madison peoples expectations if you didnt win a GS title, can mentally get to you, you finally shook that monkey off your back and mind and started playing the tennis you always wanted to play, well done and be proud of yourself Madison you deserved it!

i have a feeling that the 12-minute "Wide World of Sports" official vid i posted DOES NOT WORK outside of AU.

I seem to remember this was what happened last year.

I didn't follow the in-game odds but the only time I really started thinking Keys might pull it off was at 4-4. It felt like Rocky/Creed. She'd absorbed everything and was still standing.

Madison said she has been going to a therapist to help manage her nerves on the tennis courts and she was going to go for her shots because she didn't want to be second guessing herself afterwards a loss effort.

Siniakova to serve first in the 3rd set,. her serve seems off today Broken, momentum swing to the No 3 seeds.
Townsend steadies her team and they get the break back

I hope Saba's back to normal! Those flailing gestures were shocking to see! It seemed more news covered her meltdown over Madison's win!

I am in the middle of the womens doubles final as usual you didnt watch the full match, , I suggest you go back and watch the match
Madison took the match and the title out of Saba's hands or maybe you were watching a different match lol!

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Well done to the No 1 seeds Siniakova/Townsend to the win the AO doubles title 62 67 (4) 63 defeating the No 3 seeds Hsieh/Ostapenko.
