Wang Qiang is a future star. Today was just too much for her since she has played so many matches in a short amount of time. Wozniacki and Wang are kind of similar players in a way but Woz is so tough to beat, some of the shots you think Wang won but Wozniacki got to was unbelievable. Getting past wozniacki is like climbing a big mountain and you can fall down at anytime and unfortunately, Wang fell down, but she'll get back up there once she has a lot of rest and treatment, but now she's playing in Hong Kong in like a days time. I would like for her to miss this tournament and play in Zhuhai on 30th instead. Congratulations to Wozniacki, I think she'll win it.
Isn't Wang Qiang 26? She's had a great tournament, but is that the basis of future stardom? Certainly players have come into their own late in careers, and I like her game, so I'm honestly asking if you think there is a longer trend rather than a one-off performance (I don't follow her in enough detail to know.) I would disagree that they have similar styles, though. Qiang takes more risk than Wozniacki, relies more on power, don't you think?
Yes she's 26! However, she's started to really get into her element. It's not just this tournament, she's already won 2 titles (which are her first ever titles), got to two semi finals and won the Asia games this year. It wasn't so long ago when she was in 70's world rankings just this year and now she is number 24 after today which is her personal highest. Her tennis has improved so much and yes, even though she's not a young player, she is in the best stages of her career, but I think that's also down to her coach as well, he's got her playing much better. I really hope that she can do well outside of China though because I can see a top 10 player in her. Yes that is true.
Kerber started to show good forms relatively late too, so are the Italian girls, Errani, Vinci, Schiavone, and Pennetta. Different players peak at different times. Wang and Wozniacki are similar in the sense that they both counter punch well and neither possess crispy flat shots like Keys, Sabalenka, Sharapova, or Li Na.
After a run of poor form Wozniacki has won more matches this week than in the last three months. She is the favourite to win the final though I would not underestimate Sevastova who is also a great counter puncher just like Caroline herself. May the best player win. Good luck to both in the final
The majority of comments prove the level of dumbness that has filled the world . All people love is mindless bashing .. manly girls on steroids shreiking like pig and smashing rackets.. Wozniacki Kerber they are much more crafty they know how to construct a point.. the word construct a point itself is endangered in today's mindless bashing game and the viewers are so dumb they love just boom boom
Ok Wang has to be completely exhausted. But wow. She's no fluke. She's got game and she's gonna make some noise. Her game reminds me a little bit of Li Na, and I LOVED her. Hopefully I will love Wang. Haha I do love wang, let's be real. But seriously, it's pretty exciting to see another Chinese player who could possibly contend for Slams. I hear the popularity of tennis is exploding in China. Us Americans better get serious about promoting tennis if we want to compete lol.
I don’t know why Wozniacki hasn’t won 10+ slams. She’s one of the fastest on tour and in the past 2 years has injected power bigger than some of the big hitters.
I can only imagine what Wozniacki's dad said to her on the change over..."Keep the ball in play and always hit your forehand with topspin not going for the outright winner"
I think this Wang girl will be the next Asian champion like Naomi Osaka, they both have powerful groundstrokes and amazing court coverage, she hits the ball a la Kim Clijsters, her footwork is like that of Simona Halep. But Wozniacki had to impose her authority and Wang had a difficult time coping with the former world number 1.
Wang plays lovely tennis but it doesn't mean necessarily stronger than other players. I expected this result and the final shoud be held for Osaka and Wozniaki.
Honestly it's not true to conclude that Wozniacki is a pusher~~ It's true that her forehand is lack of power, but she made it up with a lethal backhand and good placement shot as well~~ Moreover having such sturdiness and stability to stay in rally is never an easy job~~ As a tennis fans I thought we have to appreciate every kind of game style~~ I am quite sure tennis will be boring with just power game dominating over the tour
Pusher = returns the ball without placement consideration or depth~~ She is not this kind of player, the best example I could think would be Errani. Woz does have the offensive game plan especially on her backhand side
Wang appears to be a very similar player to Wozniacki, but I don't think Wang had time to 'catch her breath' after a swag of back to back matches which would be very tiring and it was obvious she was not in her usual form here and that's what happens when you are pushed to the limit, you start to miss things and the pattern can continue. Its called BURNT OUT!!!! People are not robots, they need rest to recover after gruelling physical and mental challenges. If this match had have been played tonight or tomorrow instead of yesterday, despite Wozniacki's level of skill, I think it may have been a very different story because that little bit of extra recovery time can make all the difference and give you a chance to recharge your batteries. Don't worry Wang, you'll make up for it in HK! I still put money on you last night but that's ok, you've won me enough for one week!! Hong Kong watch out! Typhoon Wang is on her way!
Both players played well other wise they wouldn't be in the SF. Sadly for Qiang Wang it wasn't meant to be but for Caroline Wozniacki...Congratulation !
That was nice from Wang at the net. She has a more watchable game than Wozniacki as she actually hits the forehand, so she will be one to watch definitely. I think her coach fucked her up a bit though, he told her to be more aggressive then she hit even more errors
Wozniacki is an Energizer! The longer the rally, the better she plays. Everyone is gasping for an air when they play against her. Never under estimate her!
Wang is a complete tennis-player at technique and even a resistent runner through the field. The real shame for the tennis is that she lacks two things: 1: She lacks of power, effectively her shots are powerless and you can see her balls fly slowly especially after the first set if compared to Caroline's ones. This gap of power has forced her to lose quickly against a fresh and powerful Yastremska in the final of the tournament. 2: She loses her moral and her confidence when the match is developing bad for her, and she starts to play without temper.
No because she has won 2 titles, so that's not exactly just semi finals is it? She played so many matches, the first semi final she was in at the tournament before this one, she had to retire, but then she had a little bit of a breather since she had a bye in this tournament, but it still all caught up to her in the end. It also looks like she isn't going to get much of a break still as well since she is playing in Hong Kong in about 1 days time against a fellow Chinese player. There is also the fact that playing Wozniacki would exhaust her even more.
Wang is just a mediocre typical WTA player. Bad serve, maybe a bit more consistent in rallies thats why she did what she did the past month. I think Sabalenka deserved more to be in this semi and would demolish Wozniacki... Cant see why all these people perceive Wang as a future star, I'd rather go with Sabalenka and Osaka that actually bring something different to WTA that is power and explosiveness ( even though they both lost today )
You obviously don't follow her. She's is not a mediocre typical player. Yes, she needs to work on her serve but she's definitely not a mediocre player. Get your facts right. Both Sabalenka and Osaka would have probably lost to Wozniacki today as well, don't think that everyone can beat Wozniacki because after all she is number 2 in the world and she is a pusher in the game. Plus I believe Wang played about 19 matches in 26 days which is absolutely mental and one of the reasons why she lost quite easy against a world class player like Wozniacki.
I don't get why people can't support their idols without bashing other players. This is coming from a huge Sabalenka fan who also thinks that she would have had big chances against Wozniacki. But come on, Wang played beautiful tennis in the match against Aryna.
Funny that you think Sabalenka and Osaka bring something different to the game with their power. I think the main thing missing at the top of the game right now is consistency.
Qiang wang is a real beast. Winning so many matches against tough players
Wang Qiang is a future star. Today was just too much for her since she has played so many matches in a short amount of time.

Yes that is true.
She needs to points for next year rankings, good results from tired legs.

The hug at the end Was AMAZING
Just Alex
Wang said that she needs a hug. So Wozniacki was forced to do it. She doesn't hug anyone
@@kunalnaresh5165 My live Was a lie
Just Alex
She just said that in press conference. You can check wta Twitter
they're wearing the same line of clothes, I suppose they know each other (they must've discussed which color they'll be wearing, etc)
That line of clothing is specifically designed for Wozniacki and other adidas sponsored girls wear it as well...
well done Woz! just one step ahead to the title! believe in yourself and you'll get it!
after 8 years she'll back to the champion again Caroline Wazniacki..
people complain woz is a pusher yet she wins where are your faves maybe they should try pushing like halep woz and kerber
The majority of comments prove the level of dumbness that has filled the world . All people love is mindless bashing .. manly girls on steroids shreiking like pig and smashing rackets..

What a beautiful hug! 😊
We all know what you meant, you're freaky.😊

I don’t know why Wozniacki hasn’t won 10+ slams. She’s one of the fastest on tour and in the past 2 years has injected power bigger than some of the big hitters.
Nathan Larkin
Not true about injecting power than big hitters. She likes to play moonball
gamer k In this match she did because she was versing a more powerful player, in her other matches she was hitting winners from everywhere.
Nathan Larkin because of Serena and plus she’s bad at grass and clay
Piotr said "you see that tactics work, you keep her on backhand and then move ahead.." The "Great "Dane"" is and speaks Polish
Woz is back in form ..... very hard to beat now
I can only imagine what Wozniacki's dad said to her on the change over..."Keep the ball in play and always hit your forehand with topspin not going for the outright winner"
ambdance00
Probably yes 😆😆
🤣🤣🤣 "Keep Pushing"
- Piotr Wozniacki 2018
I gotta say, I love Caroline, but you guys are funny as hell. Partially because she is pretty much just a pusher, but i still dig her creativity.
yes agreed. it is funny and true. I admire her stamina and ability to stay in the rally for so long. She really wears you down. It's truly admirable
Wang cannot penetrate Wozniacky. Thats the problem. Shes one of the best returner in WTA
I think this Wang girl will be the next Asian champion like Naomi Osaka, they both have powerful groundstrokes and amazing court coverage, she hits the ball a la Kim Clijsters, her footwork is like that of Simona Halep. But Wozniacki had to impose her authority and Wang had a difficult time coping with the former world number 1.
What a poetic commentator! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Great win for Woz!
Wang plays lovely tennis but it doesn't mean necessarily stronger than other players. I expected this result and the final shoud be held for Osaka and Wozniaki.
Masterclass tennis from Wozniacki.
Wozniacki is funny. She never wins when you think she will and she never loses when you think she will
Honestly it's not true to conclude that Wozniacki is a pusher~~ It's true that her forehand is lack of power, but she made it up with a lethal backhand and good placement shot as well~~ Moreover having such sturdiness and stability to stay in rally is never an easy job~~ As a tennis fans I thought we have to appreciate every kind of game style~~ I am quite sure tennis will be boring with just power game dominating over the tour
You have just defined a pusher. I agree that variety is necessary, though.
Pusher = returns the ball without placement consideration or depth~~ She is not this kind of player, the best example I could think would be Errani. Woz does have the offensive game plan especially on her backhand side
Keep it up doing best Wang Qiung
Wishing quiang the best!
woz is good but i was expecting a final between osaka and Wang qiang..
Wang Qiang presented this match to wozniacki on a platter.
This match was the total opposite from Osaka’s match which was full of errors LOL
Wang appears to be a very similar player to Wozniacki, but I don't think Wang had time to 'catch her breath' after a swag of back to back matches which would be very tiring and it was obvious she was not in her usual form here and that's what happens when you are pushed to the limit, you start to miss things and the pattern can continue.

Wozniacki is like a wall I mean when you hit the ball to the other side the ball will turn back to you and repeat lol.
The Great Wall of Denmark.
Both players played well other wise they wouldn't be in the SF. Sadly for Qiang Wang it wasn't meant to be but for Caroline Wozniacki...Congratulation !
Qiang wang is a very beautiful woman. She will get many ads now.
!!!!!
Wang has to win a slam to get endorsements.
JordanjamesX
Not in your native country
Wang should mix up her shots like drop n slice shots, baseline hitting is hard to beat wosniacki
The two times Qiang and Sloane Stephens played, Qiang destroyed her both times.
Their dresses are cute😊
purple lila why they wear the same thing
I enjoy the commentating more than the match
can someone do a video of the wang qiang chants the crowd did before the start of each game in this match. I got it in my head. It's pretty catchy
Glad to see that Wang brought down a peg or two...
That was nice from Wang at the net. She has a more watchable game than Wozniacki as she actually hits the forehand, so she will be one to watch definitely. I think her coach fucked her up a bit though, he told her to be more aggressive then she hit even more errors
Dear WTA, please pay attention to the proper names of the WTA players. Wang should be in bold, not Qiang. thanks / first frame, first screen
hey wta? can you stop showing missed first serves, esp if they're not double faulting..?
Imagine beating all those amazing players and then losing to Wozniacki...
Wozniacki is an Energizer! The longer the rally, the better she plays. Everyone is gasping for an air when they play against her. Never under estimate her!
Wozniacki is really a wall and I think I should review how Ostapenko beat her...
Wang is a complete tennis-player at technique and even a resistent runner through the field.
The real shame for the tennis is that she lacks two things:
1: She lacks of power, effectively her shots are powerless and you can see her balls fly slowly especially after the first set if compared to Caroline's ones. This gap of power has forced her to lose quickly against a fresh and powerful Yastremska in the final of the tournament.
2: She loses her moral and her confidence when the match is developing bad for her, and she starts to play without temper.
I LOVE HUGZ AT THE NETZ!
Qiang Wang, win something in your career, please 🙏 😥
She's won 2 titles this year already.
Go Caro, go!
lol wasnt that out @ 1:56
not sure, as it counts the shadow projection of the ball instead of the actual contact face of the ball. it maybe an in too but not sure.
Jules L yes that was really out
Benni Posenov play it in slow mo
Benni Posenov it looks super out though lmao doesn’t really matter anymore though haha
nice catch. would've still lost but they should track errors on refs and drop the bad ones.
If you think that Wozniacki it's a pusher, you don't know nothing about tennis or tactics
pushing is a tennis tactic
my girl gone ... waiting on Singapore
Woniacki ☺
Such good sportsmanship here. Maybe Sabalenks can learn a lesson from Wang.
"The run was ended by the great Dane." Poor choice of words. Hilarious, but a poor choice.
Zweig Ackroyd what a Dane? Honestly couldn’t find it in dictionary lol
@@phengyang2639 Wozniacki is from Denmark. She is Danish and people from Denmark call themselves Danes.
Pheng Yang Great Danes are also a breed of dogs - so double meaning there.
For a sec thought they were gonna kiss.
clash between the mccartneys

You wish.

The Chinese hasnt come yet...huhu I thought they did...
The question is if her gas tank is really good just up to semifinals???
No because she has won 2 titles, so that's not exactly just semi finals is it?

All the rising stars can't beat Caro. Aryna, Anett, Qiang, Naomi.... Shame.
Aryna, Anett and Qiang have already beaten Wozniacki.
They can do it in one day
when caro is 40 years old, they can.
Turtle Turtle
They already have won.. Nobody is God that can't be beaten
Well that’s the great thing about the WTA. Everyone can beat everyone

Am happy she has lost
