Uh, Jennifer Capriati held her own quite well against Serena in her prime. I'd be willing to bet that peak Navratilova, Graf, and Seles would have handled Serena as well. Venus born 10 years earlier would have a similar career to Gabriela Sabatini. She probably loses to Graf and Seles more often than not.
You can't make that determination. No one can. That's why the matches have to be played. Comparing players from different generations is risky business at best.

Remember Henin struggled against Venus but was very good against Serena,and Momo had a lopsided h2h with Serena but was very successful against Venus.Its all about match ups,and Coco doesn't have a positive H2h with Iga.She gas beaten Jabuer,Saba,and Karolina Pliskova and others...
I agree. It's completely about matchups and just because player A can dominate player B doesn't mean that player A will dominate player C.

Bea will regret not getting the break there. Iga offered up a plethora of 2nd serves and she couldn't capitalize

TB it is. Bea has to make Iga pay for any 2nd serve on offer

a bakery product MM, really? what's going to be their excuse this time. They've both been eliminated in singles for a few days and Jess over a week
I didnt watch all the match, as we have been saying with Jess and Coco every time they get to a final of late they are flat, at least in a GS event they have a day off and Jess went out early in the singles, I hope both of them look at their playing schedule better for doubles in the up coming grass season
