Two of the nicest people on tour! It’s a pity one of them had to lose! Wishing they do well at the Australian Open.
You need glasses, but at least they don't grunt.
Sharapova and Ostapenko are the nicest people on tour
What Ever yep Sharapova that never look to the person and ostapenko just the same
Kvitova just refused to lose this match.
Exactly. As you testified, her instinct forced her to stay there. One of the rare, extreme game. She felt fighting a virtual top 10 player. Barty in this tournament demonstrated it. Excitement guaranteed!!
Love them both and love that hug. Anyone feeling that 2019 will be a crazy year for WTA ?
Yes! Women's tennis this year looks to be exciting! Almost everyone is looking in great form and the emerging players are really pulling through. With that said, the Australian Open could be won by anyone this year.
Oh yes. Cant wait to see what happens the rest of the season. Petra is looking very fit and ready to go and Ash is improving all the time and who knows where she could end up.
ABSOLUTELY
A lot of potential winners in WTA, which makes the WTA far more interesting than the Fed, Nadal, Djokovic re-runs to infinity.
@@raymondhall5970 Nope sports need stars. Wta lacks consistent domination which isn't healthy for popularity of sports. Do u even know atp is in profits and wta in loss. Bcoz it doesn't have proper stars who can dominate. For casual fans it's not good that any random winner wins the tournament. People watch sports for their fave n star players. Star players bring money. Atp is in golden era bcoz of big three.
Seriously, that was the most inspiring match I have even seen since 2019. Barty played marvelous tennis in the whole week and could be a real contender in AO. I though Kvitova would have given up so many times during the second set and decider but she didn't. She is a real fighter mentally and physically and that was a pure honor watching it. I don't know how far she will go in AO somehow but this is already a match for me to remember. Great tennis!!!
What a match, respect for both of them fighting at the very end but still Petra prevail
What a final. Miss Barty. Tk God Kvitova still playing e back in good phase.
Barty played incredible tennis over the course of the entire tournament, and it looked like a lock for her after the first set. However, Kvitova has something special in her as a competitor and it took center stage in the final. Congratulations to the both of them!
Kvitova's biggest enemy has always been the heat of the sun. She was beaten easily when the sunlight was still on the court. Then she caught up when it faded
@Lebron Almighty didn't know grammar shits still exist haha
Thats so true... Wimbledon its sunny but never close to this kind of heat and then, so many of her titles have come indoors.
Petra suffers from asthma. Heat& humid aggravates it.
I was thinking she looks a bit vampire-like, especially with that widowers peak. So that explains the sun thing🤡😁
What excuse is that you’re making she won fair get over it
I gave up on Kvitova infinite times during this match given how I have seen her play before. She has characteristically lost matches like this before when she comes upon an opponent who was able to neutralize her game. And Barty's game has those ingredients. She has really fast feet, is agile, is durable and has that very consistent, almost animatronic backhand slice that troubled even Halep who is also very consistent. But surprisingly, Kvitova just kept rallying back each time she was behind and even towards the end of it against what seemed to be insurmountable odds given how manifestly she struggled physically and a stoic opponent on the other side of the net who looked like she was just starting to play, Kvitova managed to pull out a win. Incredible. Great match.
Yes I couldn't agree more but I didn't give up on Kvitova because she's so tough in finals and watching the match in Madrid last year against Bertens shows that even when she's got nothing left, she finds something to get through in these tight moments.
So glad to be a fan of both of them. I hope they both get far in the AO as well :)
What an extraordinary match. This reminded me of the time Henin-Davenport.
the AO match?
@@cambed71 for example. More about the combination of styles.
Bram Dams to me when barty steps against top player it’s really interested and she did better then Sabalenka Kvitová played strong in the two last sets but Barty nearly beaten her! hope Barty wins the Australia open! Then Saba wins the next one . The next big three will be Osaka,barty,sabelenka !
I think since her attack, Petra views life thru a different lense
There are few better shotmakers in WTA than Kvitova in form, which she is. Great tennis, and congrats to Barty too, who has improved immensely.
Happy for Kvitova!!!! Hopefully she’ll be physically ready for the AO (which I lowkey doubt) - Congrats for the back to back finals in Sydney, Barty! A very sweet young lady!
VLOGS WITH TIM lost to another lefty lol and Barty only lost to lefties players
I hope too tim. If she comes out from firat week she will be very dangerous. Btw love your videos
Sydney is gone
Ash really pushed Kvitova to her limits. That slice backhand drives all the WTA players crazy. Barty is doing so well recently, her game is nice.
two lovely girl played a very great final.
good luck at the AO 2019 to both of them!
From a background of doubles expert, staying around 20s in the ranking, her determination to step further now becomes explicit. Off-season training paid off! A new feature in the tour! Good luck!
Has anyone noticed kvitovas movement n defense. It was like she was getting every ball back and pushniacki suddenly started throwing missiles. She was so fast and was everywhere.
Wow kvitova has become a great athlete!
Two of my favourite players :) Lessgoo Barty!!
What a great week, PK. I’m so proud of you. Soak up this win and rest up for play at AO 2019
Great tournament for Barty, hope this is might be her break through year. Good technique and positioning, only surpassed by Kvitova's mental toughness and incredible firepower. Can't wait to see them both giving their best at the AO.
One of the best match ever! Well played by both the players. Congratulations to Kvitova
Big fan of both girls and very happy for Petra. I really hope she finds consistency in 2019. She will then be a major 2019 GS threat. She deserves way more GS titles than the 2 she currently has.
Barty has so much potential and i think this is finally going to be her breakout year.
Shaun S
She’s 15th she doesn’t need a breakout year, she has already had one. All she needs is to translate WTA results to slams and she will be in top 5 by end of year.
Nathan Lifska. Ffs. Pedantic much? Winning a slam would qualify as a breakout year given she hasn’t yet made a QF. Jesus Christ. Some people have so much fucking attitude, learn to speak with some respect.
Inediblehulk she’s been beating a lot good players that she failed to do last year and her mentality becoming a lot stronger just to me is that she was tired in this match because she play a 3hr match with Kiki !
@@nathanlifska2509 yeah, i agree with you and wasnt taking that away from Ash. 15th in the world is a good ranking for anyone and she has had good results in regular WTA results but has not had a breakout performance / year at the Grand Slams yet. And thats what i was kind of referring to.
With her form, talent and potential i'm sure soon she will have that breakout GS.
Kvitova is so good, great power and she looks fitter than ever. She deserves to get to No.1 which she very well could be after the Australian Open.
The fight Kvitova has is amazing. Barty so close and always gracious in defeat. Now on to Melbourne and best of luck to both ladies!
Fantastic players and the game . Nothing else to add!!!!!!!!!
That was tough, both performed brilliantly on that tour
Glad for Petra
great match. I think Barty will break into the top 10 this year she is just playing so well. Much fewer errors and such creative diverse play. So glad to see her game flourishing. Hopefully she can not just defend but improve on 3rd round points at this year's AO, make at least the QF or SF.
I'm really surprised with all the comments about people saying that they are concerned about Petra being ready physically for the Grand Slam. Are people forgetting that you get one day in between matches at Grand Slams. They also have tomorrow off and it's just a small flight from Sydney to Melbourne. For me, getting used to the conditions and the new court would be the main thing to worry about but after winning a title, I think the main issue is hunger. Going into a slam with lots of matches under your belt with the last one being a loss like Kerber is, is ideal as she is match tough but also hungry and focused cos she lost her last match and now she's more hungry than say Kvitova and Pliskova who both won last. But we will see. There's nothing like a loss to sting u into action
I LOVE KVITOVA !!!!! BRAVOOOOOO :-)))))
It’s such a tough sport, Barty who beat all top 30 opponents and 2 former grand slam champions to get to the final but no reward, Kvitova played great but it’ll be interesting to see if she can get enough rest before Aus Open, she’s versing Rybarikova and she wasn’t looking too good at the end.
Great game ladies!
The player to watch in the Australian open is Karolina pliskova.stubbs could make pliskova win the Australian open slam.
I hope so. I'd be happy to see that
All the best kivitová
u become a Australian open winner
Very great match!!!
Middle finger for all the haters who said Petra's gonna be out in 1st or 2nd round at AO
Aweee Barty. I really wanted this for you. Great match! Grand Slam level.
These two ladies are outstanding what a match to watch congratulations KAVITIVA well deserved win good luck next time Barty...
A hungry Kvitova is an exceptionally dangerous Kvitova. If she maintains her intensity and level of play consistently, there's not much that can stand between her and the trophy in Melbourne, or anywhere really. Her raw talent and power are wicked when on full display. Barty's court craft and athleticism should prove her to be a formidable contender as well , and showed in this match how her game can be a difficult puzzle to solve . 2019 looks to pick up where 2018 left off and should be a celebration of women's tennis with resurgent veterans and exciting new talent. How diplomatic was this shit? But for real, it should be a helluva year.
sounds good to me. And so glad that Petra went to the ends of the earth to win this match. After getting blown away in the first set, many other top players would have just let this title go to rest up for Melbourne. But not Petra, she doesn't just use the tournaments outside of Grand Slams to peak for the Slams, she tries to win them too and it makes the wta tour much more fun and entertaining when it's not just about the Grand Slams, where every tournament is important
Authentically Nobody Barty didn’t play her best today she was exhausted against Kiki Bertens for playing three hours
@@101poumi Thank you Barty apologizer, I knew we would hear from you.
Authentically Nobody it’s true watch her last match hater !
@@101poumi I did. I like watching her play. Whether I think or you think she's tired is really not relevant. This is professional tennis. Lack of conditioning is not an excuse.
Ashleigh Barty is always fun to watch. Her game is so refreshing and more than just power. I’m glad she’s gotten better. Hopefully she has a good run in Australia. I have a feeling Petra may not do well in Australia. She not one to have much endurance and this match was an all out brawl.
Barty is such a smart player and she’s looking fit. It would be amazing if she wins AO. I’ll be rooting for her!
KVITOVA LOOK SO FIT. SHE CAN WIN MORE THROPY AND MORE GRAND SLAM IN 2019 !!
Petra pls do well in first week of slam bcoz I know in later rounds u will be unbeatable . Can't tolerate pusher winning slam. Osaka won us open and saved tennis.
Petra winning always sounds good. Always good to see a player with huge weapons winning tournaments. Her forehand is huge so huge.
deepak mahajan Yeah it would be unbearable if a pusher win the AO again 🤮🤮
Disappointing lost, love both players.
Petra showed us spirit.very good match. Ashleigh did also very good tennis.
Barty was worthy and she's a fighter but Kvitova is a more gifted and talented player and she was able to summon that at the right moments in the match and she was fortunate as well to have painted a few lines which never hurts.
Great match!
QUEEN PETRA
Good job Petra, absolutely amazing, congrats for your 26th titles.
kvitova's serve left her completely. she won because she was hitting the cover off the ball and barty couldnt handle the pace
I Knew these two would make it to the finals and I knew Kvitová would win... Anyway, I’m so proud of Barty for representing Australia! This was a close match
so glad Petra won, I love ash but Petra is still a force to be reckoned with, I hope she can carry this momentum into the AO and have a good run
BabyE I wanted ash Barty to win to make her confidence to next level and plus I’m Aussie I’m sad she lost . Serious Kvitová can’t you play in Hobart why in syndey
The hug says it all
At singapore final Petra played so bad but today I've understood that Kvitova is top player
Hope they both do well in AO. Barty was outstanding in that first set. I wonder if Kvitova will have the energy though when she takes on the unpredictable Rybarikova on Monday?
Barty also. She's facing an unpredictable one, Luksika Kumkum which always a treat when it's AO
@@azwanmiswan_1564 Rybarikova and Kumkum are not the same level. Rybarikova when her game is firing is a huge threat on grass and hard courts. If Kvitova is 100% I would have thought she'd blow her away but if she is less than that Magdalena can definitely capitalise. For Barty, I would have thought physically she'd be fine but she may be emotionally exhausted after reaching a final on home turf
azwanmiswan kumkum ks easy lol but Kvitová player reach the top 20 last year
Love you kivitova
Nice played kivitova
And 😍😍😍😘😘😘😘😘😘
Incredible match
Petra! I Love her so much 👏🏼
Petra! Petra! So happy for her!!!! Great match!!!
Sensational!
Good Match!
Great match
Luv u barty ... after this match
Real champion of the match
Petra ❤❤ it's your time again girl
Ash is a good sport. :)
Petra played a lot of good matches at night time this week. Can't help but think that was a small factor in her turning round this match when the sun went in for set 2 and it cooled down a little. Congratulations to her anyway it was a great final.
yes i agree with this. I was pissed it was scheduled at 4:30 cos that definitely would favour barty but the sun went away in the second set and petra got stronger. tennis should only be played in the shade and at night. I always play 6:30 onwards never middle of the day
I guess with a men's and women's tournament as well as doubles all at the same venue they need to play in the day for scheduling reasons but yeah I get you, I would not want to be out in the Australian sun playing aswell, especially at this time of year. It will be interesting watching the Australian Open, I will be keeping my eyes peeled for players that get favourable runs with night matches. I think people were moaning about Roger Federer getting a favourable schedule last year, lol.
@@abc-qv1pe oh yes I could imagine the aussies, Roger Federer and Serena getting all the night matches. It's nice to see them in action but especially in the early rounds, I'd rather see a blockbuster on Rod Laver Arena than a one sided blowout that usually happens especially in the men's side when the top players come up against lower ranked players. But the organisers need to be aware that players like Kvitova are no good in the heat and should accomodate a little for her? Or at least mix it up and share the easier conditions around. I just hope it's not going to be too hot for the players cos it's exhausting enough watching them be exhausted
Luke Mc she’s play in the afternoon only Barty has late sessions
cambed71 no ones like Kvitová in Australia . We like Kerber not Kvitová
hope she wins AO 2019
There are only 2 results for Kvitova in the tournaments: lose soon or capture this tittle. I worry for Kvitova, she was cramping in the late of this match, but hopefully she will be ready for AO
I always liked Barty since she's been looking nice person. And I like Kvitova too. Well it's sad since one has to lose.
What is the point of winning this title? Australian swing is SOOO gruesome weather-wise. Both of them are now pretty much exhausted before the Australian Open even comes around. Should have saved it for the big one. I love them both though -- hope either of them wins the Open.
Australian open champion kivitova
Gilaaaaa sport jantung
Yay Petra!
Love these two classy women.
Super kivitov
Petra Kvitova is Czech Tennis style...., She is look better now ....
Is there a corner where Barty can not reach...and win the point? Amazing!!!!!
barty looks like she really worked on her conditioning. she should have a great year!
Great match. But a little worry about Kivtova’s fitness. She looked lose a lot of weight.
Another titanic game, again Barty was there, although victory was so close, but elusive to Barty. The loss here does not hurt her, but well deserve to be proud of her performance. The better should not be expecred for now.
Both players pushed each other to the limit. Physical struggle of Kvitova was visible, which led many to feel it a big opportunity for Barty who looked fitter. Not the case. She too exhausted. Seemingly momentum shifted to the favor of Barty, then she failed in materialuzing it! Uncharacteristic errors, consistency gone. Fatigue & nerve in her!! Formidable is Kvitova. Her animal instinct saves the day. Just before the 1st GS, these players have already marked their game here!! Well done, & warmest congrats to both of them!
Hiroki Mori Barty was struggling a lot and was tired her service was beat lacking in the first serve
Yes! The macho is out!
In the end Kvitova overpowered little Barty. lol
красава. вытащила на зубах просто!
too bad they both play monday
I don't think Barty wanted this Sydney title, she did not show emotional interest in fighting for the title. All Barty had to do was serve for the match at 5-4 but chose not too, she let the biggest Championship title of her career go, she simply let go of trying.
I don't think she ever served for it. Petra served for it twice in the decider but failed and won in the tiebreak
cambed71 but she breaker Kvitová many times in third set and she just needed to serve 2 more games to win
Barty ended party
Mark my words barty will never win a championship 😋
Lol like all the things you have ever won... Laaahoooosaaherrrr
gmb 85 Barty won Miami open and French open
She won Miami, French open, Birmingham, and WTA Finals
Is Barty the sheila that can win the AO ?
I hate kvitova discontinuity
who is this commentator? i think she's always rather obnoxious.
Really? I want to know who she is because I love her style and enthusiasm. Different strokes.
@beatniece
I agree she has a very irritating voice!
