arrogant, annoying, pathetic bitch. i hate Victoria with a passion after this. that smug look on her face after she broke Sharapova at 4-0 makes me want to scream! she's not as good as she thinks she is and she's gonna get her ass handed to her on a plate next time she plays Maria
In women's tennis, winning a grand slam is nothing special, the same best of 3 sets. the only difference with a masters is that you have to play an extra round, which they often win 6-0, 6-2 or something like that, grand slams in women's tennis should be at least best of 5 sets in the final to be worth so many points for accomplishing almost the same thing,
I think only the best women are capable of playing best of 5. Therefore...the best solution without having unequal amount of prize money..is to make ONLY the women's final..a best of 5.
I don't want to be disrespectful about womens tennis,but if compare them to the guys,it's quite bad. There are no "leaders in womens tennis, nobody that makes a difference,6 different Slam winners in 7 years, it's really bad.It also shows much easier it is to win a Slam for women than for the men.Wozniacki was number one, she had a couple of master 1000 tournament wins, 0 Slams, while Djokovic was no.3many years and had 1 Slam,a bunch of master1000 wins etc.Level is so much higher in mens tennis
@pennyboy140294: I think its good that there are different Slam winners. Who wants the same No 1 for 10 years like you get in Men's tennis. In every slam you know its going to be Djokovic, Nadal or Federer. So boring. The Women's tour is so much more interesting. And dont blame Wozniaki. She doesnt make the rules. Its about points and seh plays more tournaments than everyone else.
@Fo4ts: I agree. They are only noisy because the players you mentioned play / played with such intensity. Most people are sexist about the noise. Connors was really loud and so are a lot of the mens players. I watched Nadal grunt through a whole match at the Aussie Open. Only one commentator mentioned it !
I think Sharapova is better to use the backhand slice as Davenport.It increases defense, a mistake that would force striking is not good.Or attempt to serve＆volley.vika,kim,petra,LiNa,
These players is a good defense expanded faster than the Maria.To her tennis so patience is required.A great player,I believe that also win
I think I prefer the shorts; they look more dignified; however this rather embarrassing mis-match was less than impressive. Note the distinct lack of enthusiasm from the crowd. Do the women really receive the same prize money as the guys? Now I know why the men virtually NEVER make any mention of the women's game. Oh, and there's far too much grunting (or whatever you call it) going on.
I think Maria was awful in this match. Her serve was good, but she didn't step forward when she had the chance, waited for the ball to hit the ground and do Ues. If they had played 5 sets and maria stepped forward, she could have won.
Continuing on my contribution earlier, I do look at the men's game now as the drama has heightened. I think that both sides have a good audience. Should the pay be equal? Judging from this weekend's performances, I would definitely say no. In the general sense, I don't know. I would like someone (preferably a female player) to present an opinion that supports it so that we guys (I believe it's guys who are speaking out here) can get a different perspective.
Concerning the equal pay of both the men and women, I recall a period in tennis when the serve and volley game was the dominant choice of play on the men's side. The games were generally serve-return serve-volley-game and I stopped watching the men because it was just too boring. On the women's side, there was variety in styles of play and the drama was greater. As a result, interest in the women's game grew by leaps and bounds. So the cry went out for equal pay because of the great attraction.
@MrExchangeLots yeah that was pete sampras and steffi graff era. I agree with you but come on 5 sets not equal to 3 sets still asking for same pay its just unfair. Either make it 3 sets for both the sexes and remove the gender clause make it a unisex sport just like the military.
I don't understand all the complaining about the screamings, you don't have anything better to say? You can't stand even a fart? What are you a girl or something?
This final took less than an hour and a half, while Djokovic vs Nadal took nearly six hours. Yet the prize money is the same. Sharapova got the same reward for winning only three games and capitulating meekly as Nadal got for winning 25 games (plus a tie-break) and producing, in my opinion, the greatest Grand Slam final since Wimbledon 2008. That can't be right. I wouldn't want uneven prize money, so isn't it about time women started playing five sets?
@Viropol its actually good that it only went on for 90min. Is it even possible to listen to the screaming for more than that? Could you imagine the screaming for 4 hours or 6?! ...no way
@Viropol Sorry dude, but men and women have different body structures. You're not looking at the whole picture.
Even though the time men and women can spend on court is different, the time spent at the gym, the heart and courage to fight for every shot and the tears of joy and sorrow on court are the same (or very similar) for each gender. They definetely deserve equal pay. Also, you're comparing the longest AO mens final in history, with a final btw 2 agressive baseliners, that's not fair lol.
@DEBASUHR when it comes to efforts, the physical and mental endurance I guess the men just brought it to the game in heap loads the the men deserve a bonus at least, for the game they put on was a treat. If you see the type of shots, the volleys. the speed, the endurance every aspect of the game was superior than the womens final. joy sorrow courage heart are emotions every tom dick harry sally can bring to the game. The whole equal pay bullshit sucks.
@DEBASUHR when it comes to efforts, physical and mental endurance. I guess the men just brought it to the game in heap loads. The men deserve a bonus, they put on show that was a treat for those who really appreciates the quality of game displayed.If you see the type of shots, the volleys. the speed, the endurance every aspect of the game was superior than the womens final. joy sorrow courage heart are emotions every tom dick harry sally can bring to the game. The whole equal pay bullshit sucks.
@DEBASUHR It seems to happen quite often these days that the women's final is over in two sets while the men take five. I completely take what you're saying about different physical builds, but I don't think that's entirely relevant: if women played five sets, both players on the court would still face the same challenge, relative to each other. It's not like they actually have to play the men. I think @matkakulfi also made a good point about the men's current golden era, which the women lack.
@Viropol I think that if you know that girls have less endurance, you also know that the quality of tennis they can produce in 3 sets is better than the quality they can produce in 5 sets. That seems logic to me. I don't understand how making them play longer or cut their salary help solve anything.
And I do agree that there is no real domination from anyone on the girl's side. But why is that so wrong to you? I think that it's exciting and unpredictable, Schiavone VS Li at RG2011 final was EPIC
@DEBASUHR Could you please specify as to what parameters are you evaluating, while making the claim that the quality of womens tennis is better than that of mens'. The no. of sets played, the Speed at which the serves are made, the display of aggression on court, sheer array of shots displayed and their execution. Everything that the you get in womens tennis is inferior to what men bring to the sport. The only thing that men don't bring to the court are a set of tits.
@DEBASUHR Women play the same length of time as men in football (soccer), basketball, ice hockey, and any other team sport you could care to mention. As @nemaspasa said, they run the same length marathons as men. Tennis is one of the only exceptions, yet it is the sport which rewards its female athletes better than any other. Like I said right at the start, I absolutely don't want women to be paid less; I just want them to play more. Even if it's only at Grand Slams. I know they can do it.
@Viropol : An there are women's finals that are great to watch and some Men's finals that are like watching paint dry as they service 30 aces at each other. Boring !
@Viropol There will always be straightforward/one-sided finals, that's just part of the nature of sport (see: AO 2011 men's final). That and women's tennis is not in a strong era right now. Though yes, it is a bit disappointing that the women get the same money for playing best of 3 vs. the men's best of 5.
@Viropol LOL ... i don't want to see a 5 sets girl tenis match, because the quality of the game might go down. The only thing i want is for sharapova to keep her voice down - and when i say to keep her voice down i meen to stop screaming- while playing!
@Viropol Shush, it´s politically incorrect to point out these facts. Another point is that women´s tennis is far from the standards of men´s tennis, considering individual skill and the entertaining quality of matches.
the screams don't even match with the level of play... it was all screaming, it lacked power... looking forward for serena's complete recovery for an entertaining women's tennis ;-)
I feel sorry for the poor people who paid $280 a ticket to listen to that match. I saw sharapova at the aus open and it was laughable. The grunting is far worse when you are there live. I remember the crowd was laughing at all the grunting and you forgot it was world class tennis and started to think it was some kind of comedy show.
It may sound crazy and you people don't believe me, but the moment i saw the video of Vika in the Wilson channel i know that she's would win this AO. In the video she seems so relax, confident and havin fun with the sport that i know she would win. I dont use to bet but maybe with Vika i should have done it.
It wasn't even close. Took some joy out of the win I am sure. But Azarenka did great. She certainly did outplay and even more amazingly outgrunt Sharapova. No mean feat.
very short match - it means Vika is much better player than Maria, Maria always tries to hit a ball with strength, today she had all hits like this, no dropshot, no lob, only strength. It will be nice if Vika will be number 1 long time (she will be much better n. 1 than Wozniacki)
Congrats to Vika ! Now this is what u call a true world number 1. Great offensive play. Unlike a certain fake former world no.1 without a grand slam title to her name.
