What a fun, unusual, and exciting game. How delightful to get full matches of Venus Williams facing a variety of players, especially those worthy of the CLASSIC MATCH distinction. No doubt there must be quite a few more in the archives not yet publicized that will prove of equal interest to all of us who especially enjoy those superb Wimbledon videos. Venus Williams, with her beauty, spectacular legs, impeccable shot-making motions, smooth panther-like athleticism and fluid dancing is a true ballerina of the court. She can produce incredible shots with dazzling flashes of true visual art. It is in fact on this meticulously maintained grass that Venus found her greatest successes, and where, against that impressive rich green background, she always looks at her very best. Her occasionally unpredictable great shots, as well as her disconcerting errors - when she becomes betrayed by her exuberance and defeated by her excess of power - sustain the excitement of her performances, and unfailingly keep the crowd in suspense to the final shot.
it was about 100 days after the day Japan was attacked by a massive tsunami. I remember that this play was very encouraging to us Japanese people. thanks Kimiko, a wonderful tennis match.
Kimiko played a terrific match here. She really shouldn't have retired after 1996. If she had played anything like this a decade earlier she would have been a grand slam winner
No chance. Kimiko's style was very dependent on the opponents to be at a certain pace and power. When all-court players took off pace on purpose, even when they were off, Kimiko's game could be very helpless to watch. One would even argue that in the 1990s Kimiko overachieved by playing more because her records against the top were really unimpressive. If she had not retired the only weaker years after would be 1997 and 2004 - but Hingis totally owned her. Her 1995 Tokyo title probably was the most she could make, which was a good run.
Qiu ZH she beat Graf in Fed cup and I’m sure would have beat Graf in the 96 Wimbledon sf if the match hadn’t been called for darkness in the third set. Steffi was clearly frazzled. Then she would have met Aranxta on grass who she beat several months later in a hard court final. So ya she definetly could have won Wimbledon in 96 there was something in the air about her game. The calling of the third set really screwed her. She was coming from a set down a lot of her matches at Wimbledon that year.
@@Tjordful well Arantxa was her biggest nemisis who beat her after in Olympics too - it was an ugly match which showed that Date needed ASV to be really off to even snatch a set. Never watched the San Diego final so couldn't comment on that, but ASV was pretty much spent on the hard court after so many runner ups. Provided that Graf had lost in Wimbledon (she was not playing well in that match) though, ASV would definitely have seized the big chance since she was actually playing okay there with an easy draw. (It's like saying Dementieva would've won Wimbledon 09' - no, her nightmare Venus was in the final) Am well aware of the Fed Cup match - it was brilliant, but Date's playing style is highly reliant on others to generate power. Date was a good player but she overall had maximized her talent up to the point as she had some big technical flaws. She probably would have bothered Seles a bit more with this play though. Basically if she couldn't win a slam in 96', when the top players were actually a bit weary, then she wouldn't have had much chance. Hingis would have totally run her over as seen in 96' already.
Date played all tought points and won but she couldn't play well in easy points. Some unforced errors. But any how it's a wonder to watch 40 years player after a gap of 12 years. What a comeback. She is someone special.
@@peterzhou9267 Yeah she lost 6-2, 6-1 in the quarters of the Year End Championships in 96. If she had any doubts about retiring I think that set since even if she was arguably becoming more competitive with Graf, Seles, Sanchez, she not only had to worry about those and Novotna, but up and coming Hingis already had the full measure of her game with ease.
I agree with all except the outfit. The fit, not good at all, I just felt like reaching in there and pulling it up, the zipper didn’t go in properly, too saggy in the front. The visual with the gold shorts, out of white, not good. I like the design, original for tennis, but poorly executed.
A suggestion fr next video plzz..... Juz as v had a video on SAMPRAS ERA narrated by Andy Roddick, cn v plzzz hv a similar video on STEFFI GRAF ERA too narrated by may be Monica Seles or Arantxa Sanchez Vicario or Lindsay Davenport. I guess most of us ll agree tht Steffi Graf being a tennis legend deserves this respect frm Wimbledon as well as her fans globally. Thnk u😊🙏
A vastly Super😊Brilliant match and performances by both players for all time. Three gripping hours of courage, resiliance and sportswomenship. Congratulations to the ever Super Super Brilliant winner.Venus.
Kimiko played really well here but keep in mind that Venus was really underperforming with all those error galore. Kimiko was also sharper and fitter - actually she played much fewer years than Venus up to this point as her first career was so short! Kimiko's style wouldn't have won her a slam. She needs to be fed power and pace at the same time to attack. In the 90s Date was actually one of those top 5 that couldn't pose any challenge to the top, similar to the Maleevas. Her top 10 wins were very underwhelming. When the opponents were fit and smart enough, Date would simply turn into a error machine being toyed around. Her biggest nemeses were Sanchez Vicario (8 straight wins) and Graf, who wouldn't give her space to hit out. Still, she had a great record over Martinez.
@@brucee6123 Replied in another post above - Date wouldn't have had a chance in those years, up till 2004. 2004 was such a bad year, nothing was right in that year. To their credits though Sharapova and Kuznetsova did improve themselves with better years ahead. But Date would've been too old had she played till that year.
What a fun, unusual, and exciting game.

Kimiko had played amazingly against Venus at Sony Open2013 in Miami 6-7 6-3 4-6.👏
Love to watch her game!

One of the most beautiful matches in history!
Oracene's reaction at the end TAKES ME OUT. She was like "Praise Jesus now let's get out of here" LOLOLOL
She ALWAYS is, and that's part of the reason I love watching either Williams play. She's up there like, "damn, y'all still playing??"
Lmao 🤣 I had that rewatch that a few times
haha
Boy, Venus looks so good.
She looks incredible slow in this match. A 40y old grandmother almost beat her.
This match ! I remember it. This Venus' outfit ! Love Kimiko's game !

Kimiko doesn’t get enough credit for what she did coming back from retirement at 38
Neither does Serena for doing the same thing after giving birth
@@rnsw4572 Kimiko is here in better physical shape than Serena was at any time after 2018.
Date's old style game was amazing 😍
しかも、1996年に1度目の引退した時より伊達氏のテニスが進化して、ビーナスの高速テニスにも対応した。😊厳しいフィジカルトレーニングも🏋️🏃✨したのが引き締まった体からもわかる。惜しくも負けたけど、本当に素晴らしい試合でした。😊
伊達さん、やっぱうまいな〜♪
パワーで圧さない攻撃的テニス。
フルマッチで観れて、ほんとに感謝!!
Best match of Wimbledon history ! The art to play on grass
Good Match I Love It When Venus Wins 😀
which is never the case now sadly.
She barely won here over a 40y old player, not exactly a statement.
@@peterhammer4644still won...
Wow. WHAT A MATCH. I was expecting more of a celebration from Williams becuase that must've been emotionally and physically exhausting
Everybody: great match for both old players (30)
Me in 2020: now 30 💀
This was an awesome match!
At 2:10:38 y'all can see that Venus really wanted that point by the grunt at the end.
That 1st set OMG!!!! Exciting! Then the 4th game of the 3rd set. A 10 min. game fight. Venus & Kimiko set the roof on fire.>>>>>
Ha Venus le falto un plan B

two suggestions for r3: Venus vs Osaka 2017 or Venus vs Kvitova 2014 :)
definitely venus vs kvitova, best match of that championship
@@josephmonahan6383 tottally agree kvitova vs venus
Venus v Kvitova = Yes!
Also, Serena V Watson 2015 or Serena v Riske 2019
@@hokunihipali6554 Serena Vs riske was QF. Quite frankly how on earth did they not choose Konta Vs Halep for the QF matches 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
An incredible performance by Kimiko, what a comeback from retirement
Great match. The male commentor was really enjoying himself.
Very much so 😂
A riot!
A suggestion fr next video plzz..... Juz as v had a video on SAMPRAS ERA narrated by Andy Roddick, cn v plzzz hv a similar video on STEFFI GRAF ERA too narrated by may be Monica Seles or Arantxa Sanchez Vicario or Lindsay Davenport.
I guess most of us ll agree tht Steffi Graf being a tennis legend deserves this respect frm Wimbledon as well as her fans globally.
Thnk u😊🙏

まじかー！伊達さん！！熱い！！
Great stuff. Kimico wowsers! And Venus , well she's a sweetheartx
Off topic but Venus' skin is just amazing.
remeber vis watched vis live, entertaing n enjoyed it, was gd 2 c it again.
Kei was in the box :)
A vastly Super😊Brilliant match and performances by both players for all time. Three gripping hours of courage, resiliance and sportswomenship. Congratulations to the ever Super Super Brilliant winner.Venus.
3+ hours for a R2 match... talk about struggle bus. That first 1hr+ long, tiebreaker set was insane.
I believe it was Date Krumm who roared to the semis and gave Graf a stern test back in 96
V. Williams vs Kasatkina 2016 pls
If only Venus knew I was clapping for her in 2020 hahaha
Me too
2022
VENUS AHORA ME IMPACTÓ NO SE HIZO UN PEINADO ESPECTACULAR.
Kimiko Date was 41 years old when she was playing this match
Exaxtly, 10 years older than Venus
Good match Venus...I thought the two were to walk of together and acknowledge the Royal box...the disrespect ...but go Venis!!!
any chance we could see some matches with mansour bahrami in please?
I don't know if they filmed his 1976 loss in qualifying.
Venus was probably affected by her amazing outfit for this match. Probably the most beautiful in Wimbledon's history.
Why does Date-Krumm always look stressed out lol!
Fantastic play Venus despite the challenge
How old was Kimiko here, like over 40y? She looked to be in much better physical shape than Venus.
Kimiko played really well here but keep in mind that Venus was really underperforming with all those error galore. Kimiko was also sharper and fitter - actually she played much fewer years than Venus up to this point as her first career was so short!

Myskina won a slam. I think Date was as good as her, if not better mentally.

That GIANT long, dark brown hat doent fool anyone BRO. Men against women is professional sports... unheard of.
Incredible match. Too bad Vee has to have this go down in history wearing that outfit she designed! 🙃😂
VENUS ! SERENA FOREVER ! 🎾🎈🎾🎈🎾🎈🇵🇱
All of kimiko winners are due to placement, strategy, or let’s be honest, skills. Today’s players are just based on power.
Exactly! She's the last woman tennis player I could be bothered to watch. I hate tennis today, so boring.
Venus williams x Urzula Radwanska RG 2013
1:05:16 錦織おるやん。
Ageless ladies
Should get Pova involved
Serena vs Dementiava
2nd Goat after Sernea.
Gees I hate that woman’s commentator voice... @52:06 is just magical 😩
Not a flattering thumbnail.
Literally nothing wrong with the thumbnail
The guy commentating is a pearl-clutching drama queen
Match suggestion: 2012 final Serena vs Radwanska
If Halep takes a leaf out of Kimiko style she'll win more slams and will save her the energy of grinding 3+ hours every matches.
No.

Venus looks like Ru Paul sister
Two beautiful humans, indeed.
Lol classic Williams sister hater🙄

Venus Williams was a great player once, there’s no doubt about that, but some of the outfits she wore at Wimbledon were awful.
