uksoul2001. That is true. She has grown over the years, All the while she was still fabulous at every level achieved:-) Thanks for commenting.:-) You know I appreciate you very much.
So true!! Hate to say it but sometimes Serena just broke the other player down by hitting hard with great depth over and over again. But she had an amazing foundation to improve upon to become the legend she now is...
Even though Dinara lost badly, I admire her attitude on court. She always fought till the last point, what a fighter. And also congratulations to Serena.
Yes, she did play hard!Wish she was still around to play more however her health problems will not allow her to do so. In the end for myself, as you can see, I am a huge SW fan.:-). Thanks for commenting.
Vika was about to beat Serena badly in this AO but she burnt out after winning Brisbane and she was a teenager but she did way more damage than safina in the final
Good question. Obviously people were expecting more from Sharapova because she was already a GS winner and sh had beaten Serena before in the finals of a GS. I really liked Safina, pitty she had to retire at suchh young age
The demolition of Sharapova for me. Serena was ranked 81 and was not in top shape. She was so intense and determined to use Sharapova to prove a point lol
rayncar Sharapova was coming off an exceptional 2006 season (which included winning the US Open) while Serena suffered a major injury and saw her ranking drop beyond 100. So to me - the 2007 demolition tops the list. It showed that Serena was back. But it wasn't the first time it happened. In 2011, Serena coming back from that terrible foot injury beat Sharapova in the quarters on the way to winning Stanford in 2011.
God her service motion is horrible. How she has her leg sticking out at the start looks so weird and as other's have mentioned the ball toss is so damn high. Painful to watch....
Serena really love u ....u always be missed in all 4 courts after ur retirement there is no fun in tennis so there is also mine retirement in tennis no matter who will be win or loss .....tennis is vanish for me
She won Rome and Madrid :P
The shaaaaade when Queen Serena said that lol
Not so nice.
lmaooo u wrong for that. That's what I think about anytime i see Dinara's name
Could we have a little class please.
i never got the reference and yall explain?
Safina ball toss, danger to birds and all flying wild life. lol
Safina's ball toss takes a scenic route of the Milky Way before coming back down. However, by that time the match is done!
and that's why she always struggled, it led to too many inconsistencies
it takes a million light years to come back and boom, it takes just a millisecond for the ball to return from Serena's laser racket hehe
Now THAT was funny
The Rambling Loon brilliant
Whoever that was in the crowd at 6:50 after Serena's return shot is my fav. "wooow" That was hilarious.
Serena was on fire in this final! Had such a rough road to get there,one of her best outfits too.
Vintage Serena at her brutal best!! Can see how Serena has developed her game she constructs points much better now before crushing,

8:28 What else can Dinara do?
She can win Rome and Madrid
Six years later to the day she beats another Russian to win the Australian Open (this time, Maria Sharapova).
The Master Mind Is Back. Yes,, And she did it well:-) Amazing isn't it?
Without a doubt. Entertaining despite the straight sets scoreline.
The Master Mind Is Back New Video of all her #19 Grand Slams moments being uploading. Don't forget to watch and Thumb up:-)

MarioBeart tbh I think the ball toss pretty much determined her fate
Vika was about to beat Serena badly in this AO but she burnt out after winning Brisbane and she was a teenager but she did way more damage than safina in the final
When Serena plays like this, both you I are going home empty handed ;)
I like how she immediately put the check in the cup for safe keeping.
The way they cheered for Safina, you would think she was Australian but she's Russian. wow......... the haters even back then .
I wonder which was brutal. This or the 2007 demolition of Maria Sharapova.

She still is lol

well, that tops it all hehhehe
LOL Not only was this awesome but hilarious as well.
safina the worst no1 player she won rome and madrid hahaha
lol i remember that interview. Serena trying not to laugh.
Shinobu Tsurubushi ahem Jankovic, Ivanovic
hahahahahahaha kill me
the crowd was actually rooting for the number 1 who only won Rome and Madrid
I think they were just cheering her on. Crowds always do sympathy support
Technically, she wasn't #1 at this time. This was a match for the #1. Safina didn't take the #1 ranking until April.
serena are a champion
Dinara defenitely did not ready for Williams.
Dinara looks so helpless during the trophy ceremony. Badly hurt psychologically.......
serena williams you win dinara safina
“She won Rome and Madrid”
2009 AO Qf: beat (rusian) kuznetsova, Sf: beat (rusian) Dementieva, Final: beat (rusian) Safina. 2015 AO Final: beat (rusian) sharapova. What an athlete.
You're disgusting... go and hate somewhere else
God her service motion is horrible. How she has her leg sticking out at the start looks so weird and as other's have mentioned the ball toss is so damn high. Painful to watch....
Look at Halep
YES!
What a performance and entertaining speech by The GOAT!!
Good Serena
Serena really love u ....u always be missed in all 4 courts after ur retirement there is no fun in tennis so there is also mine retirement in tennis no matter who will be win or loss .....tennis is vanish for me
At 8:32 'what else can dinara do' hahaha
😍❤✌
kayberdo lgelb
She won Rome and Madrid 😂
I didn't realize how big dinara was! She was BIG!
I think her toss was way too high so she couldn't master the timing like she should have been able to.
No bigger than vika and maria, she just wasn't destined for slam glory like them
