      But let's be thankful that with Elena and Aryna there are two players who can test Iga, because otherwise matches with Iga would be rather a bit boring for me to watch.

None of big three do nice dropshots and volleys, they are mastering their strongest abilities instead of applying new elements to surprise the opponent.

Run faster or let it go instead of harming her body too frequently too early in her career. Play with joy and goodness will descend. There is much more to life than tennis. ERy always has a smile even when the going gets tough. Serena didn't win 23 GSs with a ready-to-make-enemies face. Relax!

    During the first set it was raining lightly (more of a drizzle) so the ball was heavier and Rybakina had to compensate during her serve that's why most of her serves were long. Her groundstrokes flat as they are resulted in balls often finding the net. She was landing around 40% of her first serves so Iga was feasting on second serves that were bouncing just within Iga's strike zone. The rise in Rybakina's quality of play starting the middle of the second set coincided with the rain stopping. That was when she started serving well and committed less unforced errors making life difficult for Iga as Elena was able to attack Iga's forehand more.

And didn't you notice that the audience had their raincoats and umbrellas on? It is common practice in clay court tournaments to continue match play even when there is a shower because the clay absorbs the precipitation. Only when the clay becomes slippery will they stop a match. It's different in hardcourts where they will stop play immediately.

    Sad to see Iga exit like this, but she literally asked for it. For a good portion of the match, she had Ryba on the ropes, right where she wanted her to be. And then, when she had to pull that final trigger, the nerves came in and she produced a textbook chokejob. The injury that followed was nothing more than a side effect of that choke, because had she not gifted Elena that re-break in the 2nd by commiting no less than three (!) UEs and then instead converted at least one of another three doable BPs, the 2nd set wouldn't even go to a tiebreak. A monumental choke!

      Iga didn't choke. Rybakina just served aces and played very well during those breakpoints. When you say choke you are referring to someone who fails to land an easy shot. There was nothing easy for Iga during those breakpoints. Rybakina's serves and groundstrokes are just very powerful it doesn't give Iga much of a chance. You probably haven't ever played competitive tennis to be talking that way.

    Elena Rybakina once again is displaying her physical and mental toughness and ability to sustain Iga's barrage of quickness and power. However, Elena knows Iga's game of style now after previous defeats and know her serves and angled shots will keep Swiatek moving side to sides which took a toll on her thigh and knee eventually due to physical limitations and wear and tear. Cool, calm, and collective as usual for Elena Rybakina. Unfortunately, for Iga Swiatek, she was not able to continue to compete and had to retire. Hopefully, her injury is not too serious and will recover soon enough to play again for the Rolland Garros tournament. Big congrats to Elena Rybakina.

    Iga was almost unplayable on Set 1. That’s already given. She was phenomenal. But they way Rybakina held her own and forced a tiebreak on the 2nd set was hardly talked about. She is a mental giant. And this is on clay for crying out loud! She was already ahead of Iga on the tiebreak before the injury happened. Iga had to over-chase, over-play, and retrieve Rybakina’s pacey balls in the tiebreak. Maybe that was not a sustainable/ injury prone style of play after all against Elena, hence, the injury.

    In the Australian Open Rybakina was adding volleys into her repertoire, in Indian Wells she was hitting good lobs and in the final of Indian Wells she finally beat Sabalenka by learning how to hit some down the line winners instead of always hitting hard cross court winners, then she added drop shots in Miami, and now she is learning how to play offensive and defensive tennis on the move.

Iga has lost 4 times to ER this year. Elena is like a black horse with nothing to lose and only everything to gain. She is calm and cool as ice. Elena is there to earn her money but she doesn't need to do it with a ready-for-war, ready-to-make-enemies face. Just like ash barty, ons J, Beatriz haddad maia and victoria azarenka who are some of the superb players with a big heart for friendship. Elena is cool. She will be blessed as no. 1. I enjoy watching all of them but personal favorite is Vika. She looked beautiful in a white jacket at Australian open 2023 against zhu lin. Love her big accurate serves and powerful backhand shots.

    Too bad Iga had the injury, but this is revving up to be a rivalry for the ages. I like both of their games. They can hit other players off the court with such different styles.

      So far, it's revving up to be more like a Federer vs. Roddick "rivalry". While the one (Ryba) is racking up all the wins, the other (Iga) counters with collecting most of the losses.

    Good decision not to aggravate before French open.

    The WTA really does a horrible job with these highlights... Those who haven't seen the match want to see the crucial moments (i.e. when and how Iga broke in the first set, when and how Iga broke in the second set, when and how Elena broke back in the second set, when and how Elena mini broke in the tiebreak...) Very bizarre to not include these moments (doesn't matter if they weren't "highlight reel" rallies.
    Anyway, super happy for Elena as she's my favorite WTA player but never nice to see a win like this. Hope Iga can recover quickly from this injury.

      Iga broke in the 1st set consecutively because of Rybakina double faulting and not getting any 1st serves and terrible errors, it wasn’t that exciting. Likewise Iga got broken in the 2nd set when Rybakina finally put some pressure on her serve and Iga made an error.

      And what was it about the injury? Did she came into the match already injured or did she injured herself during this match? Did she hit her racket on her leg and that caused the injury? Yes indeed, really poor coverage from the WTA to get any crucial infos here.

      ​@@ApricusInaros IGA got injured because in the second set Elena was putting a lot of pressure on IGA, IGA was all over the place eventually she got injured at tie break when the score was 5-3. It will only get worse for IGA from now on as everytime she plays against Elena she knows she has to win in straight sets otherwise if it goes to set 3 she knows her chances of winning is very low. She's going to throw everything at Elena and this is when she's going to get herself injured.

      @@ApricusInaros No, she didn't hit her leg with the racket, and she didn't come into the match injured either. In fact she was moving incredibly well up until the injury late in the tiebreak. 3 minute injury timeout but didn't play very hard after that and had to quit.
