Ostapenko just plays every match on her own terms, that is admirable. She goes for her shots, but I feel like she's a little smarter and cleaner with her placement. I hope she wins this tournament and stays in this groove for the AO.
They gave a stat during the match that in the last year, 66% of the points were decided on her shot, her terms. Either a winner, forced or unforced error. That's higher than anyone else on the WTA tour right now.
Why? Just cos everyone else bashes her? Don't be a sheep, just do you. I've always like Osta, even when she's being a little B, you have to accept the rough with the smooth.
Everyone know what they wanna do when they play Ostapenko. Make her run. And she a killer on that tennis court. Really like her game. I think top player always hope Ostapenko on other side of draw. She look unbeatabl sometime.
Many have tried and failed with that strategy because she is actually good on defence and can run and get to a lot of balls and send them back as winners. It doesn't work. They need a different tactic.
I've been watching her since her first matches this season, and aside from possibly Sabalenka, she's playing better than anyone else I've seen this year. She was brilliant during this and the Litz tournaments. There was the matter of saving match point with jet lag vs. Tauson, but even that she took in stride. Only broken once in like the last 6-7 sets, and saved 5 break points in the opening game of the semi-final.
Me encanta el estilo de juego de Ostapenko, llevo ya años siguiendola desde que ganó Roland Garros. EN ese momento yo era fans de Halep. Echo de menos a Simona Halep la verdad.
without a doubt the most dangerous player on the circuit, she can simply upset and make anyone who stands in front of her look very bad yesterday rivakina today alexandrova, on a good day she can beat anyone
Lookout Penko is coming for the AO title, make sure you check her for weapons cause she's wearing her starched uniform with crease's, it's her business attire! 😎
Ostapenko looks heavy, like she's carrying around 15 to 20 extra pounds but her power is overwhelming for most of her opponents. If she can set up for her groundstrokes she hits winners.
@@broncoguy4862 Last year she lost in the 2nd round of Adelaide 1 and the 1st round of Adelaide 2, she definitely didn’t think she would win Brisbane so easily after such a horrible time at the WTL.
I truly wish Ostapenko would remove her foot shuffle from her return game. It seems distracting to the opponent’s serve and would make her game more ethical imo. Nonetheless well played
Rybakina wasn’t trying to win. She was going to do the same thing Pegula did if she beat Alexandrova and so she decided that it didn’t matter if she won or not. Rybakina easily could have come back in that match in both sets but decided not to when she was about to get the 2nd break.

ostapenko get that final win, you got this!!!!!! love when she's in the zone!!!!
Ostapenko is amazing! Her game was fire. Bravo 👏
How good it is to watch Ostapenko play! Brilliant.
Jelena Ostapenko what a performance! She is like the high caliber machine gun. Good luck in the final!
I'm secretly a fan of ostapenko.
No need to keep it a secret. I like Ostapenko very much myself !
I’m an outspoken proud fun of Ostapenko
Why? Just cos everyone else bashes her?

gloryhunter,typical.
I am too! I mean, she hits like a truck!
Well played Ostapenko 🎉. All the best for the final 👍
I am a loud and proud Ostapenko fan. She’s the most entertaining player on tour. I will be rooting for another grand slam win this year!
facts
Won't Happen
@@mikiafu Probably not, but if Emma Raducanu can win the US Open and Marketa Vondrousova can win Wimbledon, anything's possible.
@@broncoguy4862 not impossible but very unlikely, she doesn't have the fitness and consistency. if any of these than Vondrousova
Jelena is AWESOME ! Powerful, accurate and deep strokes, that's why she comes out on top ! :)

Felicitări! Ostapenko!👌👍🥰
What a great game by Jelena! 👏
Yeahh Ostapenko!❤

Echo de menos a Simona Halep la verdad.
Penko is so much fun to watch. Hopefully, she will win the final.
Jelena just might have the best ground strokes of anyone oh the tour.
And dress sense!
hell no,you got no taste thats for sure.@@danjonmills
@@galatasaray984You look at it as taste 😂
She's not there to rally and run
This girl how can u not like her game so unpredictable player 💪💓
She got high IQ in tennis. Ostapenko will be a threat to all during Ausie open.
Penkita doing her thing!! ❤
Penkos second serve is so bad, she should just go for two first serves. Great win, hoping she suceeds in the final. Go Penko.
clear striking, very good match from Jelena
What a good handshake by Ostapenko. WOW
Ostapenko ❤❤❤❤is THE BEST. PERIOD!!! Goooo girl ❤❤❤❤ Win 🏆 your final and grand slam ❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉
without a doubt the most dangerous player on the circuit, she can simply upset and make anyone who stands in front of her look very bad yesterday rivakina today alexandrova, on a good day she can beat anyone
she wasn't playing Rybakina, Alexandrova won with Rybakina
I love watching Ostapenko ❤️ soon she will be the no 1😍
Lookout Penko is coming for the AO title, make sure you check her for weapons cause she's wearing her starched uniform with crease's, it's her business attire! 😎
when ostapenko service works and a few UE and that devastating forehand? you are done.
Ostapenko played smart. She wasn't blasting every ball.

I love my Latvian lass,i like Emma Raducanu too❤❤❤
Не понимаю Екатерину Александрову...зачем она победила Рыбакину..чтобы подарить эту игру Остапенко...😂
Devastating when she’s ON!
Adelaide, the Final should be days ago. Rybakina and Pegula lost or gave forfait because the want to start in Melbourne with proper preparation.
Rybakina definitely would have won this tournament if her team let her go all out.
@@westonmeyer3110 Not much respect for players who treat tournaments as practice runs...if not interested in winning, don't enter.
@@broncoguy4862
Last year she lost in the 2nd round of Adelaide 1 and the 1st round of Adelaide 2, she definitely didn’t think she would win Brisbane so easily after such a horrible time at the WTL.
I haven’t like a player as much as Ostapenko since Seles.
3:48 facing Ostapenko does that to you😅
Ostapenko reminds me of Veruca Salt from the original Wonka
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Glad she won
You have 2 shots, maybe 3 if you're lucky to beat Ostapenko otherwise she will beat you
I truly wish Ostapenko would remove her foot shuffle from her return game. It seems distracting to the opponent’s serve and would make her game more ethical imo. Nonetheless well played
Alexandrova plays like she's asleep.
Yeah, no passion, no energy, no interest. Similar to Pliskova sisters 😅
Iga fans praying she tires out before AO😂😂
Why?Kenin or Kerber probably beat her.
Остап молодець,в гарній формі перебуває..
Ekatarina should change her strings. A lot of weird hits she had.
Wonder come back good game ladies 🎉🎉🎉
Well done Jelena 🎉
bravo Ostapenko
Penk Power!
Ostapenko seems to have lost some weight, her moving seems better.
Ekaterina looked sluggish for sure, well done Ostapenko.
One tough cookie. Good luck in AO.
Whta happened Alexandrova ? u won from Ryba for this ?
Did you watch the match we didn’t play bad she was just to good today
Rybakina wasn't interested
Rybakina wasn’t trying to win.
She was going to do the same thing Pegula did if she beat Alexandrova and so she decided that it didn’t matter if she won or not.
Rybakina easily could have come back in that match in both sets but decided not to when she was about to get the 2nd break.
@@westonmeyer3110 sound stupid as hell
Good job Jelena
Остап бендер Остапенко не позволит Александровой пройти в финал , это и так было ясно как и победить Дашу Касаткину !
Why rhybakina lost the match
Alexandrova Brilliant game yesterday but today Rubbish. ..
Congratulations to Ostapenko ..i too like. Her. She won french open years ago..
Головне щоб не знялась з фіналу як Пегула.
Остапенко 🫵👌👊💪
Typical Alexandrova 🤷🏼♂️
Penko plays like Swiatek..good
Hi
Penko 🎉
The shoe screeching is loud.
Alexandrova runs bad on the court.
Huak
Can't stand her... maybe she won today, but she is and always will be the most unsportsmanlike player on the tour.
Who be making these dn outfits and why aren't they locked up?
Ostapenko dress cord is not professional at all look like kindergarten girl 😂
or someone who sells ice creams :)
Касатка в опасности!
Никого противнее в туре нет, как Остапенко.🤮
