I come back to this to remind myself how supreme Venus athleticism was she was unmatched the power off her balls straight bullets her ruthless attitude when she’s focus is scary when she’s in top form
Davenport was still around too! Even the 2nd tier players from then like Kuznetsova, Mary Pierce, Myskina, Petrova, and older Seles would drag a lot of the players from today.
@@POObumpoopo funny how you called Kuznetsova, Pierce, Petrova and Myskina "2nd tier players" 🤣 😂. Yeah true these players at their peak probably would of dragged the current players at their best
@@user-be5qg7mr1s That was the Golden Age of Women's Tennis where most of the top 10 weren't getting knocked out in the first week of a Slam like Today.
This was a revenge on Sharapova from Venus for beating Serena in the 2004 final, but little did she know that her own sister would go on a 20 match winning streak against Sharapova and would never lose to her ever XD
Exactly! Never thought I'd wish to Sharapova again but the ladies of that era would smash the current top 10. Maybe Sabalenka, maaaaybe Rybakina could rock with them, but that's about it. The current crop is so weak and inconsistent and flakey overall.
Venus is on fire here I've watched this several times I still fist pump whenever Venus wins a long rally lol Give Sharapova credit she played well but nobody can beat Venus when she's playing like this just the same as Fed Nadal Djok at their Don't see this good a tennis anymore it makes me sad yet I can't complain really glad to have been there to watch it. Big Williams Fan. Have a great retirement ladies Thank you so much for giving us fans so much entertainment to this sport I use to see boring as like watching paint dry until you 2 came a long. Good luck in the future I wish you all the best.
It’s crazy. Venus and Serena were so dominant and winning all the slams at very young ages, that when they went a couple years without wining, people forgot they were still in their early/mid 20s and still had time to peak. Serena was still very young when she won the US Open in 2008 in what seemed like her first slam in forever. And we see what she did from there.
Brutal flat hitting. Thr type of game iga hates to play. Sharapova n venus height would be worse nightmare for igas topspin. She got it easy in this era
what a pathetic comment, stop predicting things that will never happen. maria was never a good mover and Venus who was a much better player than maria is now old and should retire. the current players being subpar is not Iga's fault so grow up. ball bashing is not enough now to be at the top.
Womens tennis was really in a golden age during this time. All the matches were wars, all the players were interesting and the catfights were amazing 😅 if anything it was better than the mens at that point
Now I understand Idk why the All England Club has so much to say about Serena's purple headwear when Sharapova had a dress trimmed in orange. Anyway this video is why I started to watch tennis. I do not think we will have an era of female or male tennis players for a long while.
What you mean Venus got lucky? Venus thrash Sharapova in Wimbledon 2007, 6-1 6-3. Sharapova was lucky to even get the first set to a tie break in this match and she fought hard. She said herself after this match that she tried her best to win but couldn't. Sharapova is no match to Venus on grass. Venus has the same amount of Wimbledon titles as Sharapova Grand Slams
This level of tennis is FAR higher than what we see today. CRAZY
WTA at it peak.
I will never ever forget that stunning first set or that stunning tournament from Venus. At her best on grass, she is THE best.
The Williams sisters definitely shifted the female tennis for good. no questions asked 🎉
I come back to this to remind myself how supreme Venus athleticism was she was unmatched the power off her balls straight bullets her ruthless attitude when she’s focus is scary when she’s in top form
Venus' change of direction on her forehand was unreal during this match
Miss this era. Sharapova, Serena, Venus, Clijsters, Henin and Mauresmo at their peak performances
Me too
Yes that era was good with those players
Davenport was still around too! Even the 2nd tier players from then like Kuznetsova, Mary Pierce, Myskina, Petrova, and older Seles would drag a lot of the players from today.
@@POObumpoopo funny how you called Kuznetsova, Pierce, Petrova and Myskina "2nd tier players" 🤣 😂. Yeah true these players at their peak probably would of dragged the current players at their best
And there was pierce, Davenport,Capriati, Dementieva, Myskina, Li Na, Sheng jieetc and many other players
This level is hard to see these days.
If you look todays’ semifinals you get depressed
@@pasqualeferraro84 I knowwww. I miss Venus, Maria and Serena in their prime.
@@apaarmaheshwari8673 don't forget Justine and Clijsters

watching Venus win matches brings me so much joy. she's such a great player and champion.

As much as I didn't like Sharapova, I do miss this era of women's tennis.
As much I don’t like u I stick with sharapova

This was revenge for Serena for sure!!!!
The celebration is electric. You simply do not get great ballstriking like this on the tour any more.
I miss the players walking off the court together. Just another one of those things that made Wimbledon special that they don’t do anymore.
😊
Venus was/is a grass court specialist. There truly are not that many in the history of the sport.
Oh - if 3 of the 4 majors were on grass like in the 70s, Venus would have 15+ without question.
this was a LOUD match
Boy these 2 doesnt know how to give up don't they. And they have so much confidence in their shots back then
This is my all time Venus match. Thank you. Full match in my channel.

The ball striking and swing volley are so beautiful from Venus.
Just months earlier Mary Carillo and Pam Shriver noted how the williams sister were in decline 🤣😂

Queen !!!
Que lindo juego ambas jovencita y bellas bendiciones❤❤❤❤🇩🇴
Prime Venus was the sh**
if only Richard allowed Venus to play early, she could have won more grandslams
Hih? She started on the tour when she was 14 and was already in grand slam finals at 17!?
Early? Damn you wanted her to start playing tennis in the hospital delivery room?
@@cptbusstop92😂😂😂😂
No. He saved his daughters from early Injuries and mental burnout. So they could have normal childhood. It was best decision.
How do you solve a problem like Maria? Hahaha

Royal battle.....
Damn that match was violent 😂
Loudest higlights.
Queen of Grass >>> Mildronate princess 😌😇😍😍
What a match 😮😮
Venus just hot lucky here
Winning in straight sets 6 and 1 is not lucky but well deserved.
Lucky she didn't kill her.

Seriously you said it was fluke,I am sure you know nothing about tennis
Yeah ….Venus got lucky that Meldonium queen hadn’t had her right dosage that day?????
MOANING...
