 What's going on everybody welcome to the semifinals of Dubai and we've got the I guess the match of the Day to start which is kind of weird usually you have the best match at the end But today we're starting with the best match or at least the most hyped match. We've got golf. We gosh fiance It might not be the best match on paper. It might be over in an hour But you're on tech and golf a very very High-profile and also they're very highly ranked which is why both players are so popular in the tennis world and Then we've got Pagola versus Krijakov, which I think is a better match personally I think that's gonna be a better match, but let's see what happens. Maybe golf can surprise Maybe and also we got the men's matches going over in Doha We're gonna cover that as well. I hope it's playing later all that stuff, but let's get the preview We haven't seen the preview videos again. Thank you everybody who does watch the preview videos Appreciate that. A lot of you actually did watch the Shviantec and golf preview here It is again if you missed it Cocoa golf versus eager Shviantec It's the first semi-final for the ladies event in Dubai for 2023 and both ladies are similar roads to get to the semi-finals Golf enter the tournament as a number five seed and we'll get a buy in the first round in the second round She's taken on Sasnevic who had just come off a three-set epic in her first round And this was no problem for golf winning in straight sets six love six four in the third round She was put up against the number nine seed Rabakina who had come off two very impressive wins But unfortunately Rabakina had to withdraw due to a back injury Handing off a walkover into the quarter-finals in the quarter-finals stage She'll take on the unseeded keys who had taken out Azarenka and Garcia along the way But keys hit too many errors and golf would get the straight sets win six two seven five to make it into the semi-finals Shviantec enter the tournament as the number one seed and we're gonna buy in the first round The second round should take on Fernandez who had had a very good first round But unfortunately it was too much and Shviantec would get through in straights six one six one in the third round She'd take on the 14th seed Samson over who had battled past Medosa in the first round and got in a walkover in the second But the walkover in the second didn't give Samson over any hope as Shviantec smoked her Six one six love to get to the quarter-finals in the quarter-finals Shviantec was supposed to play Pliscova who was coming off a good win against Zachary along the way But unfortunately Pliscova got ill Shviantec continued her run making it to the semi-finals with a walkover These two players have played five times before which Shviantec winning all five matches in straight sets And I played four times last year including the French Open final which Shviantec winning every match Super easy if golf's gonna win this one She needs to serve well and she needs to limit the errors even though she played well And will the score suggest she played well against keys keys hit over 50 errors She's not gonna give that many three points away and golf also hit 30 errors despite winning in straight sets So she needs to limit the errors and of course serve extremely well if Shviantec's gonna win She just needs to keep doing what she's doing. She's beaten everybody in the last couple of weeks super easy And she's not gonna be scared of golf. She's beaten golf super easy in their past matches too So I'm a little worried for golf in this one. This is gonna be an interesting match We've seen this match so many times and it's played out pretty much the same way every single time And I think it's gonna do the same again. I think Shviantec's gonna get the win in straight sets I hope the golf makes a competitive, but I can't see golf making it more competitive because of that error field match She just played against keys. So I'm gonna go with Shviantec in straight sets, but you tell me who do you think's gonna win this match? All right hot take I picked Shviantec And look like I said yesterday we watched it But we was gonna play keys in the quarterfinals you can see here on the screen It was six two seven five you think oh, okay. That's pretty good. You know matters of keys and not bad player But it was a horrible match 80 errors combined 30 from golf Shviantec's gonna hit Maybe 10 to 15 errors at a at a medium So golf's gonna have to play a hell of a lot better. Look at that two walkovers two walkovers in the quarterfinal stage Krijikeva she had to battle through as she came back from a breakdown. We'll talk about in the next match I set in a break against the number two and that's probably a big sign of big help for Shviantec The Sabalenka's gone Let's talk about Cocoa Goff the world number six eight Teen year old from the USA. She is five foot nine right-handed having a very good season nine wins two losses Including a title that title being in Auckland to start the year to add to her career total and look at her form You can see there. She's actually she's won eight of her last ten But she has lost two of her last three coming into this event and Igor Shviantec the world number one and she'll be the world number one for my prediction until at least next year I don't think unless she gets injured and she drops out of a lot of events I don't think she's dropping in the ranks 21 year old from Poland She's five foot nine right-handed nine wins two losses on the year one title as well That happening last week and she really started a week or her season last week the Australian Open the United Cup They were a warm-up. She starts in February We all know that 12 creatives including three slams and her form over the last she's won seven of her last eight and She is on a win streak at the moment And there's the head-to-head the ugliest head-to-head in the world at the moment at least between top ten players Five zero in favour Shviantec. Goff's never had a chance. I think one set they played early in their careers Well a few years ago that was close But that's that's how the head-to-head looks five zero everything's either a bagel a breadstick at least one of the sets and Shviantec just don't I mean it works both ways right Shviantec doesn't know Well doesn't feel like golf to threat. Goff doesn't feel like she can threaten It's it's a mental a mental gap a skills gap a consistency gap and Also a head-to-head gap So it's gonna be a matter like this will be one of the biggest upsets of the year Goff does get it even though we know golf is top ten But yeah, it's gonna be a little it's gonna be tough for for goff to to even win games To even just get on the board and make this interesting All right, how are we doing chat? What's up? How are we? All right Place about on court any moment now. We've got about five minutes four minutes to start We've had the doubles play out. I don't know who won that I didn't see it. I saw the end of it. Was it Doha doubles sorry Dubai doubles Chan and Chan beat Crave crab check a crov check and scours I Guess so the best thing I guess for this match is the fact that goff and Pagula lost early in the doubles So they're not focusing last week Pagula goff We're playing doubles Pagula might have her focus, you know half and half this week Goff's playing singles most well, she's playing singles and the doubles is gone They lost early Pagula is the same. So maybe that'll affect them I don't know could you give us not playing doubles either this week. Look at her So maybe the doubles distraction being gone is the reason why we're getting these these players playing so well this week as well Will Murray le Hedgeko. Oh, yeah, we might oh, we'll suss it out. We'll suss it out What's going on? How are we doing everybody? Who's got any anyone got any bets on this match? I mean What I mean, what is the bet 2-0? Shriyantek 6-1 6-2 if golf can make take five games with one break on eager service a total win Yeah, I mean look if it's it's a loss is a loss It doesn't matter if it's four and four or one and one a love-a-love or a three-set epic a loss is a loss but I think For golf, it's about progress, right? What was so frustrating about her last year when she played against fiontech is that she never looked like she was getting better Against fiontech it was always like it was the same story four times in a row You saw this again and again and again again There was no like she didn't look like she was getting better It looked like she was just they were the same like almost literally the same result Three and love love and three four and one three and two, you know, that's like, you know If you don't see progression then it's it's useless So hopefully we see from golf side, you know, maybe a 6-3 6-3 loss or a Tie break and a lot and a and a bagel whatever, you know, something a little more competitive Because that way even if she loses it's like, okay Well, at least you're one more games than last time you're heading the right direction. You're closing the gap If it gets if it's love and love then you're going backwards. So let for the sake of golf Let's see what happens for fiontech I mean look fiontech doesn't care if she wins love-and-love or 7 6 6 7 7 6 As long as she keeps winning she's winning. She doesn't care what in what fashion I'm sure bagels are nice, but fiontech wins a win, right? But for golf. I feel like the score matters more, you know, the loss Closer than you before is is what she needs to focus on at the very minimum. She gets beaten off of the court then It's not the right. It's not going the right direction. I At least what a competitive match. Yeah, look, I would love a first set this goes even if it's for all Fiontech breaks wins a set that would be fine if for golf I think We're good just as fiontech fan I would like to point out that it's not that it's not that sure that Ega is going to dominate as well plus Coco might finally go close the gap which can finish with her win Well, yeah, I mean look We have seen many players Probably in the last couple of months have bad results or bad head-to-heads against somebody and then all of a sudden Something happens, you know, maybe that someone's not feeling well that day or something's not quite right with the opposition And then I mean look at keys right keys had never never been as a renker They come out on court as a rank is a little hurt keys wins for the first time So, you know, you just never know there could be something could happen So we got but if ever both the healthy both the playing well, it's always fiontech, right? I Don't think it's a cold. Okay, so there's there's a factor, you know, will that play a part? You know, will that be a distraction or something that she's got to think about? That may take her her eye off the off the mark who knows But we're not gonna play the game of whether or not she's gonna lose because I think we'd we know that she's Probably not gonna lose it or barely lose games Well, yeah, Pagula did it the United Cup exactly So like Pagula came out at the United Cup and we'll say in the same things Pagula hasn't got the weapon She hasn't got them. You know, she's got the psychological disadvantage Fiontech should win this like usual It came out and smoked her what two and two, you know, so that that could always happen But we'll find out early days because I know what the the golf we saw yesterday is not gonna win against the fiontech of the last two weeks. I Think golf has the ability to be eager but if She gets behind early, she's done Yeah Yeah, it's crazy because golf does have those those weapons, right? She does have the big serve She does have the aggressive ground strokes But the problem is she also has double faults and a lot of errors, right? so that like she she ticks the boxes of you know, she can play like Sabalenka or Rebecca or or or Collins or Osta Panko or you know those players who have been to fiontech But the problem is that she doesn't usually usually Again psychological advantage having a 5-0 Record against someone never beating someone. It's like oh never getting a set as well Remember, it's 10-0 in the set department as well The source of Shiontech flu obvious Yeah, she got the flu and then she gave it to Fliske. That's why she didn't play Ega has only else eight games in our last 10 sets rowdy. Thank you for that. That's a stat I like to see Shiontech Pagula final again. Yeah, I don't think we have we're not gonna have a bad final, right? We're gonna have a good match like let's say golf does cause the upset and plays Krojikova That's a good match. If she plays Pagula, that's a good match of Shiontech wins I we all expect against Pagula. Let's see if Pagula can make a change in the last week and Get closer or if it's Krojikova We're getting a replay of what we saw last year the only final Lost by Shiontech last year in an amazing season was to Krojikova and now they're playing a final again I mean, that's a story. So there's a lot of good. We've got a great and I just want to get a little bit like Little bit passionate about WTA. WTA is so good at the moment I like it's we're getting all these regular names, you know, we're seeing golf a lot We're seeing obviously Shiontech Pagula is consistent Krojikova is doing you know since her injury She's coming back obviously Savva Lenka is doing things. We're seeing a bunch of consistent names, right? It's really it's really good, you know, it's really good for WTA tennis We're getting familiar faces in the latter stages so that every time we watch the semi-final of these events We don't have to re-educate ourselves on who's this who's that? We've seen these players many times in the last 12 months and it's great Osta Penko. Yeah, there's another one. There's a lot of players that are sort of Zachary Garcia, right? We've got a lot of names that are coming through Consistently in these latter stages of the big events and that started with Shiontech Because WTA was not really consistent until Shiontech sort of Kind of took took the reins after party hung it up Great to be back. Welcome back Linda. How you doing? Pagula can constantly gone deep is underrated. Yeah Look, she doesn't win the big trophies all the time and she you know, she does lose Shiontech a lot But yeah Pagula Pagula's a quick consistency queen Even though Zachary does lose in semi-finals. She still makes semi-finals, right? Shiontech wins everything. That's not bad for the game. Sabalenka looks like well after that except for yesterday She looks like she's getting that consistency again At least she looks consistently better What I see in Goff is the talent it takes to raise her game enough to beat Shiontech Yeah, look, I look I can only base my Predictions on what I saw yesterday or what I've seen this week what I saw yesterday Unless Goff completely changed her game plays completely opposite to yesterday She's gonna have to she's not gonna win Because I like I said, I think the score line fooled everyone yesterday. It was like Goff played mid Keys played terrible if Shiontech plays decent and she's still playing mid that ain't gonna work not even mid I mean Goff played terrible. You look at the stats yesterday 30 unforced errors like 10 winners most players lose when they do that so She just was lucky that she was playing someone playing worse, you know So that's why I don't want anyone to get fooled by yesterday's result saying oh, she won straight sets yesterday She can't play like that today. She's got play better than yesterday players on the court fireworks going everywhere Going crazy It's funny that Shiontech is minus 900 favorite and everyone says Coco has no shot Did I didn't want to see Elkways get pushed three sets against one of minus 3,000 favorite come on folks Yeah, but that for Nene's a little different for Nene does that We haven't seen Goff do that like I said I'm going Shiontech straight sets. I'm not gonna say Shiontech bagel or whatever. I'm just gonna say straight sets because I think that's That's what's gonna happen But Let's see what golf's got. Let's see what golf can do. Can she change? They haven't played since the WTA finals So it's been a minute. You know, it's been a few months So let's see what she's done in the off-season golf because this is the test Shiontech's always the biggest test right at the moment And let's see where she's at if she gets closer than usual then golf's improved and that's a good thing That means maybe next time they play she gets a set or maybe next time she plays She gets a win depending on today's result Or if she wins today, then I mean hell if she wins today That changes a lot. That means Pagula Rabakina Sabalenka, Goff are the four players to beat Shiontech in the last couple of months That's pretty crazy because they're all top 10 Golf has played terrible a week even against Sastavich Yeah, let's see results can be deceiving Well, let's find out The start of this match is crucial for Coco. It's crucial She's got a she can't get broken early yet broken early. You're done easy win for eager. There we go Six one six love, okay Hey, what's going on? Yeah, you're honest. How you doing? For once. I'm not wishing for a breast eagle bagel. Let's see. Let's this match should be competitive Mehdi 4-0 and 1-0 on hardcore. Are you talking about against FAA? We'll be watching that later Stay tuned for that Serve ratio for each player Sheila. Thank you for asking. All right, so last year Their serve ratio wasn't great last year for both ladies. It's the last year serve ratio for Shiontech was 0.9 0 which is about which is almost one ace for one double fault for the season That was in 74 matches. She averaged two aces per game and two double faults per game relative Goff she was almost the same at a 0.85 in 60 matches But she served four aces and four double faults per match So they both again serve ratio very very similar almost one to one right one double fault to wonder one ace Which is not bad But again, it's you know, you want to have more aces than double faults in a season This year having a look before this week what their serving ratio is if it's better or worse than last year Golf to the two she's actually served twice as many aces double faults this year So 42 aces 21 double faults are still a heavy on the doubles, but Better than last year and Shiontech also has gone up in the serving ratio at 1.25 So they're both serving better than last year if we go by that metric five aces to four double faults for Shiontech That's actually pretty damn good. Is that from all the matches seems pretty low But yeah, golf golf is serving a lot better compared to last year based on those two numbers Golf looks nervous. Well, she should be she's serving first though, and that's a good thing I mean you can get the scoreboard pressure early, but if she gets broken early, then that doesn't mean anything This first game is gonna be massive for golf. I Do you think do you know which players Shiontech practices with no I don't I Do not Maybe in someone in the chat does Man put some money on golf and go to Vegas and if she wins you can retire Hey, look if you want to do that go for it. That's all new Waiting for many Felix. Yeah, that's coming up in a few hours Murray's coming up first and then many coming up after hopefully that matches better than last last week Rooting for Shiontech don't care about competitive. Yeah, like you know Shiontech fans are not gonna care about what the score is She wins she wins right? That's all that matters Just like this Shiontech streak. I mean there was matches where she lost She won three sets those matches where she bagled it wins a win, right? The streak was what? 37 38 what was the streak again? The streak was massive and there was a bunch of bagels and there's a bunch of lost sets. It still was wins though, right? Dubs the doves What's the plan on the streams today? We're gonna be watching a lot as Much as the semi-finals as we can we're gonna watch the lady semi-finals of course because device the biggest tournament the planet at the moment Mehmet of FAA is coming up. Maybe Murray Elkres playing later. So well, we've got big a big day It was a 37. Yeah, it was a 37 There's rowdy rowdy knows 37 I think it was that ring that feels Right. I got She will be serving. This is gonna be massive. This first game is going to be massive Well, there's so many many walkovers Well, a couple of players got sick, you know and that happens people get sick, you know viruses happen and also Injuries remember, you know, we played a lot of tennis in the first couple of months, you know We've had Australian Open United Cup Adelaide, you know big tournaments in this in Australia Sort of had like two weeks off where there wasn't too many big tournaments Then Doha was big. Now we've got Dubai, Indian was Miami coming up. So there's no real rest, you know on the WTA on the ATP um, I Mean Runa is injured a little bit. We've got quarter out with injury Sinna got sick. So he'll be back next day in a couple weeks. He'll be fine But yeah, I guess the walkovers are because maybe the WTA is too busy. I don't know We're back and it's got a lower back problem To birds got certain got had to went into surgery on on an injury Yeah, I guess players are just pushing themselves Really really hard in the start of the season Somebody just said the Doha weather is warm. Now that could help. Um, sorry Dubai. Not Dubai That could help she could help It's a little breezy 11 miles an hour winds not not terrible, but it's not like last week, but it's it's breezy Temperatures about 25 which is about 77 degrees Not super hot. So I don't think it will affect the players It's also night like late night or sorry late afternoon. So the shadow is is covering the court anyway There's basically a night match in a nice. It's a night. It's probably the perfect perfect conditions for tennis So I don't think the conditions will be too much of a factor Gonna watch the stream my eating pancakes sounds delicious How are you? How are we going everybody? How are we doing? All right chat? Here we go. It's happening. Oh my god It's happening. It's happening Okay Everybody calm down it's happening golf serving first. She's got to win this first game That's how crucial every game is gonna be today But you tell me who's gonna win this match or better yet What are the score gonna be because I think we all know who's gonna win? Or at least we all guess we're all gonna have the same answers, right? But what is the score gonna be? I've got Shrion taking straight sets and I hope I hope that it's four and four Just I want to see golf get close up, but I do want to see Shrion's a keep winning But I just hope that golf does a little bit Does close it get close right here we go chat Goff to serve first game of the match Again, thank you so much for watching. Don't forget to like subscribe. We're almost at 125 K, which is a number. Okay Goff to serve First game of the first semi-final winner of this will play the winner of Kajikovar and Pagula That's happening later first servers in the net from golf second serve first serve Goes in the net second serve Is into the back of Shrion's tech back in our golf into the back end of Shrion's tech For when it from golf goes into the corner Shrion tech into the form of golf Shrion tech Forehand again to the form of golf on the stretch that goes up up and in Shrion's like forehand That's a winner and that's how Shrion takes gonna start now golf needs to be more aggressive if that's the way it's gonna go It's not gonna go well Love 15.

No bagel in the first set No bagel to start Cocoa parents have to skip Shrion tech matches that will be make Cocoa stronger really What do you think their distraction? semi-final record and WTA 1000 events one zero wins one lost fish of a golf and Five wins zero losses Shrion tech she's never lost in this stage of a 1000 event Let me guess it was golf's only semi-final in Was it Guadalajara last year? I can't remember the golf made the semis lose. I think she lost a baguola, right? What was that in quarterfinal? Someone will tell me what was golf's only semi-final loss. I'll check it in a second But I think it was Guadalajara. It was a Rome Rome or Guadalajara. Oh, yeah, she lost a body in Rome, right? Was the body in Rome? What's this fiance can roam? Oh, yeah, she lost the Vika in the quarters. Oh, yeah, cuz Vika made the semis. Oh So when they played the first time that was the that was it, okay? Okay, so she's only ever played one. That's crazy Only played there's a second WTA 1000 semi-final. All right, golf. It's a great returns love 15 Yeah, Dubai's a 1000 event. All right, someone outside is through a roller Doing something with the hoops. Cool. That's cool. It's like swinging them around Entertainment back and out of the back of Shriyantek backhand is wide From Shriyantek love 30 Now also to go along with all of this captain obvious is gonna tell you and that is me captain obvious She has to take a chance to go these are chances she has to take these She's gonna be any threat today Love 30 Shriyantek with a serve Now why the form of golf good return. Oh That was close We're not getting a challenge I'm surprised golf didn't challenge that because Shriyantek set out the umpire set out But why not throw a challenge up just to get Shriyantek a little nervous. Maybe She didn't do it. She trusted the the call. Anyway, it's 15 30 Captain oblivious. No, that's not me. I'm captain obvious captain oblivious somewhere else Anyways, we're turning out of the forehand of Shriyantek for now from golf on the stretch into the form of Golf as that goes in there from golf 30. Oh, I'm captain obvious. I say the obvious things and Captain oblivious is I don't know. I don't know. That's no, no, that's not a thing here Seven minutes play 30. Oh 30. Oh big point Clutch point. This is where matches are one and lost Let's see what Shriyantek does usually big serves come up since he passes captain oblivious. Yeah, maybe so all right 30 all Serve goes in the form of golf return goes into the foolish fiance golf on the stretch Shriyantek with the backhand cross court Goff can't get it. That's how you win those 30 or points pressure points 40 30 Good little comeback from love 30 and looks Shriyantek's got the vibe and like after the last 12 months When she's down love 30 You know that she's gonna do like a jokobitra in a dial thing like love 30 is not enough You never be up like you need to be down love 40 for to get Shriyantek in trouble love 30 won't be enough She just has that like you just you know we have confidence in her that she's gonna do it as she hits that in there on the Back end and it's Deuce Shriyantek captain obnoxious. Oh, that's definitely not That's not me I just say the obvious stuff. We've got captain oblivious captain obnoxious, and I'm captain obvious You can pick the others. I don't know who they are All right, Deuce Is it a serve that's a fault second serve second serve Shriyantek big chance again golf Gotta make this return count Second serve goes the form of golf hits it down the middle of the back of Shriyantek back in our golf Is out now golf's biggest problem there was she hit the ball straight down the middle She hit it hard, but she hit it down the middle. You got to make Shriyantek run on that second serve return Advantage Shriyantek Shriyantek to take the game and level things up. We've had two Relatively long service games to start this match We do know Shriyantek does have Does it does have slow starts Maybe she wins six love, but she doesn't win the first three games in five minutes Usually even against Samson over as that goes out from golf and it's 1-1 On tech survives the first game Yeah, even against Samson over if you recall yes two days ago Samson over won the first game of her serve Shriyantek won her first two service games It was 2-1, but those two service games reduced games for Shriyantek. So There is a chance that I mean we've seen Shriyantek down a break early in a match and come back to win. So Those first few games of matches for Shriyantek are the ones where Opposition have to do something they don't do anything then she only gonna get better It's very rare that Shriyantek plays bad throughout Right golf to serve again. I was waiting for a camera to mention the slow start. Hey, look, I told you I'm captain obvious That's how it is But it's also true serve Into the 4-1 of Shriyantek 4-0 from golf again to the 4-1 Shriyantek golf with the forehand Again at the 4-1 Shriyantek to the 4-1 of golf Shriyantek in control golf trying to keep the ball deep, but she hits it out Man Shriyantek has the ball so deep It is Djokovic like, you know, Djokovic is so effective when he hits the ball so deep It just pushes his opponent's back It's exactly what Shriyantek does to a little bit of Rafa a little bit of Nole Depth of Nole spin of Rafa that's kind of Shriyantek's She brings to the match as we to serve from golf. That's a fold again. This is not a good number This is not a good number. She needs to be higher Otherwise she is gonna get broken right now Love 15 Second serve into the 4-1 Shriyantek return to the back end of golf back in a Shriyantek Into the back end of golf into the back end again a Shriyantek down the line Golf with the forehand on the stretch gets it as Shriyantek gets a backhand crosscourt backhand golf on the stretch Shriyantek down the line golf going side to side and eventually in the net love 30 Shriyantek taking over and that's what happens when you don't get your first serving. You're gonna get bullied Not just by Shriyantek pretty much anybody on the WTA Second serves Consistently get attacked on the WTA. All right, love 30 first chance Real big chance for Shriyantek She had a breakpoint first game, but this one love 30 This is scary for golf. It's weird. So about why that's a fault. Another first serve missed Second serve serve Into the 4-1 of Shriyantek great return golf gets with the 4-1 down the line, but it goes out and that's too good That's what the big return does. All right. Love 40 and golf's already looking like here. We go again What's that meme? You know that meme where it's like oh shit. Here we go again This is what's happening Love 40 Here we go again Love 40 serve out why the back of Shriyantek great return golf gets it Shriyantek gets a forehand golf of the forehand down the line in the net. There it is. There's the break 2-1 Here we go again Coco got to figure this out. Yeah the CJ meme. That's it. That's the one The Grand Theft Auto the GTA meme. Okay, I need all your passwords. Oh, you were in the stream earlier, weren't you? Now that person left All right six one six love Look, I mean this is the thing that I mean if you if you're a golf if you're a Shriyantek fan, you're like great uh, but if you are a um If you're a tennis fan, you know and you want to see I mean this is a hyped up match I'm sure tennis channel. We're talking about golf All day today because that's their girl right golf's their girl Um Pagula doesn't get the love but it doesn't matter. Um, but you know, I feel Going down 2-1 getting broken early. We've seen this before Every time they play we've seen this Uh, it feels like making less errors compared to the Shriyant open. Yeah, I look I think I think there's a little bit of a confidence issue with Shriyantek in Australia for some reason like are these Shriyant open in particular I don't know. It's probably too little of a sample size to understand to know But I just feel like Shriyantek's had some of her hardest matches at the Australian Open or worse results so far I know Wimbledon's another story, but it just feels like We'll find out other than I look I think I think Shriyantek's gonna win every slam Eventually Wimbledon will be the hardest, but she'll get it eventually. I think Australian Open is only a matter of time Um, you know, if you go in the u.s. You can win Australia uh Nowadays because they've changed the court surface. Maybe back about five years ago Australian Open and the u.s. Were different But now they're pretty similar But uh, you know, I think she look if she she will end up with a Korea Grand Slam I think that's uh, that's something that I I believe She's that good But she'll win more French opens and than any other slam now golf's gonna have to break back right now 3-1 goes to 4-1 goes to breadstick and then we're out of here She's got to get the break straight back if she's gonna make any interest in this match Serve now from Shriyantek. That's a good serve. Foynett from golf goes into the Foynett Shriyantek To the back end of golf back in as Shriyantek on the stretch golf gets with the back end down the line That's a winner from golf Okay, that's a way to go about it Love 15 We're back into Sabalenka. The only ones that can beat her In claim maybe Kragikova. I would love to see Kragikova player in the final. I mean Like I said, I don't think we're gonna have a bad final It doesn't matter who we have in the final tomorrow. It's gonna be awesome If it's got first up a Gula top 10 clash interested like, you know battle for the best American If it's Kragikova Shriyantek rematch of the match of the year last year, right match of the year Uh was the um Yeah, was that australia final, right? We need a rematch of that I mean can't lose with that and anything else in between is great too as we to slice there from golf in the net Nice hitting from Shriyantek 15 all Hey, dude, do you have his hair system channel as well? I'm curious if you use lord hair No I don't know. I don't understand any of what you just said, but no my What do you mean? Uh 15 all Shriyantek with the serve Remember Shriyantek was down love 30 in the first game, but she hits a great serve there. Goff hits it in the net 30 15 Lovely serve again Shriyantek Well, we're almost at 400 likes appreciate that. Thank you for joining The stream or this match Very very hyped Even though the head to head isn't a great Isn't great. It's not a great promotion for this match, but you know goff being the player she is Then Shriyantek being the player she is Makes it very interesting a goff hits it out again Hit the ball too deep 40 15 It's a 3-1 here Shriyantek this is just This is just how it works, you know, this is what Shriyantek does And now that goff has already gone down a break. She's probably thinking we've been here already And she's probably doubting herself. She needs to try to block out those negative thoughts Why is there a cameraman hiding behind the clock? That was that guy doing anyways backhand from Shriyantek goff of the pass Shriyantek volleys it away 3-1 Shriyantek first set This is cameraman like hiding in the bushes. Can you someone want to call the police? Excuse me. There's a guy creeping behind the thing Okay Shriyantek 3-1 The fritz dolphin dive was the best point of the year last year Yeah, that was a pretty epic point So far the best point of the year is the tweener that Jung hit a couple weeks ago I was going to serve out why the find of Shriyantek Shriyantek gets it out nice serve goff 15 love Oh, it's an agent just let them work. Oh, sorry. I blew their cover Sorry, I didn't mean to it's just an agent. Sorry guys. I was just an agent my bad Don't want to blow their cover. No one's there. I didn't see nothing I didn't see nothing I didn't see anything. I promise 15 love don't shoot me A little serve don't see that's a good serve up goes the return from god a Shriyantek find out from goff is wide Man Shriyantek smart and I don't know why goff doesn't do this to Shriyantek Shriyantek just Slices the ball back deep on a big server, which is such a good tactic Federer did it against Roddick So effectively And Shriyantek obviously watched that match because all those matches because she does it to goff Goff has a huge serve and Shriyantek just goes And it hits the baseline and goff can't do anything as goff hits a backhand winner. That's a good shot That's very very strong from goff 30 15 But and look you guys can use this in your own matches if you play someone with a big serve You just got to hit the ball deep sliced. You don't even have to hit it hard. Just slice it back deep in the court It makes that serve Basically a non-factor if you can get a racket to it and you can get a deep in the court of their return That's all you need And that's what Shriyantek's been doing. She just lolly pops it back just slices it back. It's Deep in the court and it's all good 30 15 second serve Goff into the fore and Shriyantek back and out goff Into the fore and Shriyantek again to the front of goff Shriyantek with the backhand into the front again of goff To the backhand Shriyantek goff with the forehand down the line Shriyantek's there with the backhand down the line back to the forehand of goff point it from Shriyantek is out. All right, that's a interesting choice 40 15 To avoid A trip to the bakery in this first set 40 15 goff with the first serve is a fault second serve You know someone's playing really well if you just If you're celebrating the fact that their opponent got two games Serving the 40 Shriyantek Shriyantek smacks a return Not yet though. Not yet. We're not so they can't celebrate anything yet If your opponents are happy with a 6-2-6-2 loss, you must be doing something right just saying You must be uh, you must be playing pretty well. That's like, oh, I got four games I didn't get bagel Serving the ace. All right bang Goff second ace and it's three two now. It's only one break a serve and I know wta tennis There's a lot of breaks. So you never know never know here Now the announced are very annoying. They haven't said anything nice about goff once uh What are you listening to a limpus? um See like I just want a good match That's all we asked for don't we chat unless you're a Shriyantek fan or a goff fan then you want to win but Let's see. It's great to see goff getting a couple of games Let's see if she can get a couple more That wasn't expected that was that was unexpected um, I mean look Goff's good enough to win matches against Shriyantek Like if you put them like if you see the best of goff and the best of Shriyantek, you're like, this could be really good Unfortunately, we never get the best of goff in this matchup yet uh, well By that no not a bagel of bretzig yet exactly Let's see if she can get the break back and make this real interesting goff When's on's gonna return? Uh, she's uh, she's projected to return at indian wells But i'm gonna say probably at the end of the uh the start of clay season in april Because I don't know I think she got a knee She didn't confirm this but i'm guessing she got a knee Surgery so she's probably not gonna be back on a hard court She'll probably come back on the clay a little bit softer on the knees and then And she doesn't have that many points. She's got a lot of points to defend on the clay so she needs to be 100 for that with madrid and you know Rome so she's got a lot. I don't think we're going to see Jabir until uh april all right Here we go three two As Shriyantek serves Let's see what Shriyantek's got here and we just serve now from Shriyantek into the back end of goff back in there Shriyantek into the slice of goff but goff can't get it nice back end Shriyantek Uh goff has never really been that good compared to Shriyantek at a peak Yeah, I mean maybe maybe if they're both playing their best It's probably going to always be Shriyantek. I mean if Shriyantek plays anyone at the best She's going to beat everyone right but i'm saying that more that we haven't seen the best of goff against Shriyantek before Or at least we haven't seen it We might have seen it here and there but we haven't seen it for a set or a whole match And I think if Shriyantek's having a good day And goff's having a great day And I said she's got a big serve big ground strokes There they are player they are they are attributes that play this player Shriyantek doesn't like But we've never seen it because goff I think mentally uh is scarred from all the losses Let's see what's up as she hits a return long there goff 40 love And Shriyantek tries to get to 4-2 in this first set And Shriyantek tries to get to 4-2 she serves the back of the goff goff in the net And see this is what happens with Shriyantek About 15 to 20 minutes into a match that's when she starts to she's that's when she's warm And now she's not I mean she didn't lose a point on that game She was kind of struggling on serve in the first two games. She was down love 30. She was at deuce And that third game she just killed it So this is why this is why you're going to be even either even at this point or upper break at this point Because Shriyantek's only going to get better from here Let's see if goff can continue to hold serve And keep pressure on Shriyantek if that means if Shriyantek knows what that word means There's a bit of fault from goff second serve 4-2 Second serve goff to the foolish Shriyantek four on it from goff ashamed and that's it going Out just goes out from goff Love 15 Goff already looks beaten though That's it that That's that's tough. She already looks Kind of a little bit Resigned like there's not too much intensity from goff. She looks very like Okay All right, you don't want to see that Even though that might be what happens love 15 Return now to the back end of goff back in a Shriyantek into the back end of goff down the line of the foolish Shriyantek Goff with the back end half volley as we had a slice there from Shriyantek goff with a lob But it goes out and then Shriyantek hits a twin of a fun Love 30 And again, this is a problem 45 percent of first serve points first serves in is not high enough I mean look at Shriyantek. She's got 88 percent. You need to be it goff needs to be at least uh at least 60 70 or above to maybe put even like maybe to win easier but 60 To 65 minimum As you have to find down the line That's a good shot Shriyantek with a slice though goff with a slice comes to the net Shriyantek with a pass Goff with a volley. Oh, that's a volley. This is gonna be our finish. There you go I don't know why goff doesn't come to the net more than singles She was number one in the doubles Plays a lot 15 30 She can't have volleys and you know when when you've lost five times in a row to somebody you might as well do something different Andy Roddick even tried to volley against Federer when he was losing every match It almost won him a Wimbledon And goff's got better volleys than Roddick Go watch his volleys It's not good All right, let's see what happens here 15 30 second serve from goff Goes the foreigners Shriyantek good shot there goff with a slice in the net 15 40 Here we go Shriyantek for the double break um 15 40 to get this double break Shriyantek Not many players come back from the here This is called the abyss 15 40s she serves down to the backhand, but it's another fault from goff Second serve goff Second serve into the backhand Shriyantek back in it from goff again to the backhand of Shriyantek goff with a four-hand cross court Shriyantek Let's it go long five two just like that On the verge of the first set Shriyantek and i'm getting some stats ready for the But what's about to happen because man there are some ugly stats if you're a fan of goff Um, okay, let's answer questions up chat How are we doing the question? Where are we watching from? Where's everyone watching from? Let me know in the chat Coco time for tiktok. Oh speaking of tiktok There's a guy link in the chat follow us on tiktok.

All right five two Serving for the first set shriyantek. She serves a fault second serve 32 minutes in business as usual For uh, shriyantek and she serves again into the back end of goff one as shriyantek Into the back in a goff the back end of shriyantek back end in the net from shriyantek. That is That is something Love 15 Now shriyantek did five errors goffs hit 15. Remember yesterday. I said that she also she actually hit fifth I think she hit like 11 errors in the first set against keys and won that six two so I did say early in the match uh that This was going to be a problem If goff didn't play better than yesterday and right now she's playing pretty much the same Couple of winners, but mostly errors Love 15 though second serve shriyantek Out wide the back end of goff back in our shriyantek get into the back in the goff and that goes in there from goff 15 all 15 each And again goff just making errors. That's a problem 15 all Well, I thank you everybody who subscribed. Hey nearly 125k. Thank you for that I'm just going to serve down wide to the forehand of goff goff returns at wide 30 15 35th Another serve two points away shriyantek from the first set 35th Serving to the back in a goff return goes in the forehand shriyantek forehand from goff down the line is good Shriyantek with a slice goff with a forehand Hits a winner. See that's what goff's got to do. She's got to hit the ball that deep in the court and right in the corners To even just get a chance to win the point 30 all Same old story. I'm getting bored if you're a fan of tennis as much as it's, you know Non-competitive you've got to appreciate how good shriyantek is right now We could be witnessing greatness at the moment There's been a back end a backhand rally goff trying to push shriyantek away There's been a forehand shriyantek on the stretch goff with a forehand down the line That's a good shot shriyantek with a backhand that goes out 30 40 goff's got a chance to get one back You got to you got to appreciate. I think it was uh chris ebbett said this week The way that shriyantek's playing right now reminds her of how steffy and navrata lova and serena We're playing in there sort of uh when they were sort of coming through and kicking everyone's ass You've got to we've got to appreciate what we're seeing because this might not happen So, you know, we know no shriyantek might play this like this for two more years and then Um, you know then then we she you know the cat the pack leads her You know or pack chases her as that goes in the net at six five three goff gets one back sloppy game from shriyantek All right five three one break back So you've got to we've got to appreciate How good shriyantek is compared to everyone else? Because it doesn't last someone will come along Or someone might have already come along And stop shriyantek or show away to beach shriyantek and then everyone takes that And uses that against shriyantek whatever it is So we've got to appreciate the dominance right now Because she's playing like it's not like goff is not he's overrated. It's not like Pagula's overrated. It's not like any of these players aren't top 10 they are It's just that the number one is so much better than the rest of them All right four one to four and his goff tries to hold serve And at least makes shriyantek sweat a little bit that goes out from shriyantek 15 love Yes, shriyantek is superior now I think she will dominate in the first half in her favor the last match She decided in her favor with a full mark. Yeah I don't watch wta. What is uh shriyantek's big weapon uh tanya. It is Her uh her topspin ground strokes That's a bit of find now from Golf in the net man. That's a bad error 15 all Uh, so when I say topspin ground stroke It's the fact that the the depth of shot the amount of spin and her aggression on those shots those three combined Is what her what makes her baseline game the her biggest weapon and her footwork Yeah, she's got great footwork too. You've got to have good footwork as well But you notice how when she hits the ball hard it goes in when as everyone else tries to hit the ball hard It goes out Because she gets a little bit more spin than everyone else like golf can hit the ball just as hard, but it won't go in Just that little difference And that's just the clay quarter in shriyantek. I mean clay quarters notoriously have more spin, you know ah 15 all Serving to the 400 shriyantek back in there from golf into the 400 shriyantek Get into the slice of golf shriyantek comes in with the swinging volley And golf puts up a lob again, but shriyantek goes get that out of here This is gonna be on finish TV. 15 30 You've got to be better than that golf. You can't be hitting the ball that easily I mean the other thing that shriyantek's got is she can hit every shot, right? She can be aggressive. She can be defensive. She can hit drop shots. She can hit winners She can hit volleys. She has a decent serve She has the confidence to beat everyone else because she is 15 30 Serving to the 400 shriyantek. She chips it back into the back of the golf Back in our shriyantek down the line is good golf with a slice on the stretch into the 400 shriyantek and golf with a lob Goes in shriyantek forehand Gough can't get it. She puts it wide 15 40 unbelievable To get the first set huge hitting from shriyantek There was a moment in that in that game or sorry in that point Where golf hit a short ball But didn't go to the net now she might have been passed because shriyantek had a great back end down the line But there was a moment in that point where there was a chance to go to the net And I think golf needed to take it because if as soon as she didn't go to the net She was on the back foot. She had to run backwards to hit a forehand and that was it I feel like golf doesn't come to the net enough against shriyantek. At least she's not If you get passed just get passed, you know so can serve golf 15 40 to get the first set shriyantek Serve down to the back of shriyantek for now from golf Is good at the forehand shriyantek. Gough comes in with a swinging backhand volley and hits a winner unbelievable. There it is 30 40 That's what she needs to do Gough can be a big hitter For some reason she's Scared of shriyantek actually no not for some reason for obvious reasons. She's scared of shriyantek But she needs to just Go to the net, you know mix it up As we just served now down the tee, that's a fault still a set point here for shriyantek second serve By the way, harry stiles was in australia today. Anyone care? No didn't think so 30 40. He was singing down the road apparently 30 40 backhand return goes in the backhand of golf good shot down the line from golf That's just that's a very clean hit Back to deuce Right in the corner. That's the shot. She had to hit the beach for yontek All right, good break point save there from golf If you hold serve here, that's a that and she loses the set. That's still a very good Hold as she hits a great serve out wide golf advantage golf Captain obvious. That's me I'm the captain Advantage golf to make Shriyantek serve this out again. Remember shriyantek did get broken In that first in that first attempt to to win the set She serves a fault golf second serve Then shriyantek back the crap out of that fault and hit the ground All right second serve golf Serving to the backhand of shriyantek good return to the front of golf slice goes in The backhand shriyantek back in our golf on the stretch shriyantek gets with the forehand into the front of golf and golf hits it in the net Not happy about that was golf And we're back at deuce Cam you didn't give us a chance to respond harry styles is in australia. Yay. Oh, sorry Hey, everybody harry styles is in australia He's in australia Deuce as shriyantek hits it out golf is going to serve volley. All right, let's not take it too far Jesus advantage golf advantage golf To get shriyantek to serve this set out again and at least serve first in the second She serves down to see that's a good serve return from shriyantek goes in Golf with the forehand inside out to the backhand shriyantek in the net from shriyantek That is good by the way This is the most games that golf has won in the set since they first played in rome So this is progress people This is progress What do I say at the start of this match as long as she starts to win more games than she did in the last time It means she's doing something different. She's closing the gap One game at a time. Anyway, she's still down 5-4 And shriyantek's probably not going to uh do the same thing twice, but hey Closest set since their first meeting Which was uh, I think a tie break That's progress What's up everybody, how we doing uh pagola gave her some advice Hey, what what do you mean? Went yesterday Progress by winning four games in one set. That's funny Dude, what is your problem, man? You good Let's show her some fun here, man You good, um Even if she loses she needs to show improvement. Yeah, exactly Dan exactly Golf might not win this match. In fact, she probably won't win this match But if she does show that she's getting closer Because last year she didn't she played four matches last year They'll pretty much all the exact same match And that shows that she didn't learn from the loss But if she gets more games In this match, then she did in the last match even if it was 6-4 6-2 Or even 6-4 6-3 Progress And she'll and and she'll believe that she's getting closer. That's all that matters What do I do for a living? Uh, just dance around like a clown for you people Well, hey Rybakana or Sabalenka will beat her. Thank you mama do. Well, the problem is that they're not here so They might beat her because they have beaten her but they're not going to beat her here But thank you for the two bucks appreciate it Uh five four So that wide is a fault from Shfionte. Let's see if Shfionte can get this Get this first set. She had a chance at five two. She's been the dominant player throughout the set Let's see what's up Serving the back end of golf for now from Shfiontec is in the net Love 15. All right first point goes to golf. Shfiontec making a few more errors than expected Love 15 Shfiontec with a serve Down to the four end of golf return goes it out Thanks captain obvious You're welcome Here I'm here at your service 15-0 Golfs won 10 of the last 15 points by the way. That is interesting 15-0 and golf looks a lot more If she doesn't look as disappointed in the first few games she had her shoulder slump. She looked tired She looked bored Now she looks uh Determined almost like she does believe With those couple of games 15-0 serve now the back to the front of golf golf shanks it out That was a good body serve from Shfiontec. Goff didn't know what to do with it 30 15 35th There's another serve from Shfiontec two points away 30 15 Served empty is a fault second serve Shfiontec Second serve Shfiontec steps up. Here we go Where's the clutch she serves or double fault? Whoa 30 all This is strange 30 all two points away, but She was up 5-2 This is weird 30 all is we're gonna serve down the middle to the back end of golf back in Shfiontec into the back end of golf on the stretch Can't get it Shfiontec puts it away. That's clutch Set point 40 30 But this is good for goff going into the second set because remember she was down 5 what 5-2 no chance Or at least she looked like she was in no had no chance. She's got a couple of games She does look a lot more confident as well So going into the second set. Let's see. What's up? I mean she like assuming Shfiontec was this point with an ace 40 30 she serves A fault Look oh, I tried all right. It was a good attempt. I tried I'm in a second service I'm in a second service 40 30 second serve Into the back end of golf back in our from Shfiontec into the back end of golf Again to the back end Shfiontec on the stretch goff of the forehand as Shfiontec runs side to side It's a deep goff way back in the court back in as Shfiontec goes out Shfiontec pushing too much We're back at doce. That's another breakpoint say another set point save three gone All right Hmm It's a strange We've never seen goff in this position Well, she's actually got a chance It's weird Don't know how to don't know what to do. This is not what we expected At least this is not what I expected Doce Where's the serves Shfiontec serves Into the forehand of goff or goff in the net. You know why she threw the racket at that one She went aggressive didn't work set point number four Set point number four as goff smacks herself in the head Yeah, all right. Here we go set point number four Shfiontec with a serve. So you're telling me there's a chance That's it return now goes in the backhand of Shiontec and that's in the net again from Shfiontec Random random errors We're back to doce four set points saved or maybe four sets points lost Might be the more accurate description As the crowd goes eager eager Yeah, that guy really loves it. You can tell he's Polish. He's wearing the uh Red and white can't hide that Mate Hopefully Shriontec wins. So when he gets on the train, he doesn't uh look embarrassed All right, doce As we're to serve now Shriontec That's a fault. This is a chance for goff Let's see if goff can do something with this advantage Shriontec I'm sorry A very chance for goff Which is second serve Shriontec into the backhand of goff for now Shriontec Goff with a forehand down the line in the net goff didn't do anything with that backhand return down the middle On the back on the service line short ball nothing Fit set point There the shots you've got a Even if you smack the ball at you've just got to send a message to your opponent If they hit a second serve You're going to try and hit it hard even if you miss it It still sends a message because you're if they have a second serve again They're going to feel nervous because those shots go in But goff did nothing with that return just hit it in routine Serve now the backhand of goff return goes into the forehand Shriontec Forehand from goff is good to the backhand of Shriontec That's a good shot goff with a slice on the stretch Shriontec in the open court goff running side to side And it's in the net from goff Shriontec finally wins the set on her fifth set point six four And look I think better than expected from goff right a lot of people thought bagels breadsticks. We've seen it before But six fours look it's a loss an L's and L But at least it was closer than we've seen let's see what the second set holds Let's see if goff can take that confidence Of being closer than she's ever been and turn that into something special in the second maybe Both players leading the court to go to the bathroom Because we know Shriontec's going to turn up the heat now. She's got a set. She's going to just start going crazy So goff's got a goff's got to get ready Get ready for that Shriontec storm Answer my questions the questions See you later try thanks for joining us, all right I don't care what they were saying Bateria I came I was there at Dubai and I actually streamed your commentary even when I was watching the matches live at center court Hope you get to 200k. Oh, thank you for that Thank you James to the two That's cool. So you're listening to the comic. Hopefully we weren't too loud. So you listen to the commentary while you're in the stands That's really cool. Who are you watching like by any by chance? When you're at the at Dubai, that's cool How is frantic only 18? She's 21 But still she's only 21 that's still pretty crazy for what she's done so far What's wrong with frantic? She lost four games in a set Yeah, see look that's what everyone's thinking right nothing's wrong with her. She's not playing as well as she has But credit to goff, you know goff won a couple of games one a hot held a couple of service games She's frantic did should have won this set six to and she played a bad game at six to that was really The the big difference I guess But look credit credit to goff. You know credit goff for for putting up a bit of a fight Nobody's perfect. There you go Uh So now we know Coco can make eager work. Yeah, but the thing is let's put it into context again, right? It wasn't if goff was up for two and then she once it came back in one six four That would be impressive from goff to start but goff was always down She won the first game. She got broken in the second. She was down three one She was down for two. She was she was down five two. She was down five four So goff was never in in the front So, you know, yeah, she won four games and we can praise her for that But she was never in the lead after the first game Chante controls this match for the most for the first for the four million four. What is it four hundred and sixty five thousand hours That this match has been going apparently Four thousand what is it four thousand six hundred and forty four hundred and sixty five thousand nine hundred and two hours that this match has been going in that first set alone um She was a controlled for like four thousand six hundred and forty four hundred and sixty five thousand of those Somebody wanted somebody want to fire the stats guy. What the hell? Who wants to fire the state? What are we doing? Trying to bring run a show here. We're trying to run a serious show Yeah What's this shit? Come on. Come on. It's a big match people watching God damn it Well, Barbara beat Jessica. I think she might I think could you give a might beat beat pergola? It's gonna be a great match in the next one. Trust me. That's coming up next Goff's back on court. She's serving first. Let's see what she can do. I don't like she found text clothes All right, that's fair enough each their own Look, I wouldn't wear she found text clothes either, but that's because I'm a man and I don't think they make them for men If you want to wear him go for it if you don't like him you can wear whatever you like It's the best thing about life Goss ready she wants it coming back slowly to the court Winners and errors I'll give you the winners winners and errors at the next game because at the end of the set They don't give the winners out until the first game of the second set So you've got a way to you've got to wait an extra game Then in tennis apparently I Wish the WTA gave all the stats at the end of the set. I mean it makes more sense But she wants it by the way reading a book That's called confidence I'm gonna read a book while I go to the bathroom a little bit of light reading Lord of the Rings volume 2 I Like how equal you are for both she wants it in golf. I mean I'm trying Look I could run the narrative of like she wants it's gonna win it's easy But that's what everyone's gonna say right somebody said in the chat that the commentators on the TV about dissing golf That's the easy. That's so so boring. That's so boring to be like Shrion takes bagel it everyone else She's gonna bagel off. I'm I want to I want to at least tell you guys how golf could win You know how golf could make it fun and it is fun But she has to start strong in the second. She's also got to pretend like the first that didn't happen Let's see what golf can do. She's the backhand winner to start. That's a winner 15 love now remember what I said at the start of the match if you weren't here. I'll repeat it Golf had to stay in front at the start now She won the first game lost this won the first game of the match held serve But then she got broken at 1-1 and that was she didn't come back. So let's see if she can hold a Little bit more in this set so maybe get to like 3-2 on serve in front And then she might be able to you know do something Because we know Shrion take right now if she plays Insane at this point she gets a set in a pocket. She runs wild all right 15 love second serve from golf Goes out while the back of Shrion tech back in there from golf into the net 15 all by the way just to Just put this match into some context as opposed to the last few times they've played Also, I forgot to read the stat because that set went for a bit longer than I expected Goff in her career on a hardcore. She's come back 10 times After losing the first set the last time she did it though was back at the US Open in 2021 So she hasn't come back from a set down for like 18 months. That was back in the US Open against the Lynette She lost the first set 7-5 and came back to win So she has to do it against the best player on the planet. Good luck But yeah, she hasn't come back from a set down for a while as Shrion take when she wins the first set on a hard court 102 wins 10 losses can anyone name the last time she lost after winning the first set on a hard court Can anyone name the match where she won the first set and then she lost The match actually happened twice last year Can anyone name one of those times? to drink 30 Return now goes in the form of golf back in out from Shrion tech in the form of golf But get to the foot of Shrion tech slice golf and control with the backhand, but hits it out 1540 Yeah, so could you give her in strut and a strava was the last time Shrion take one the first set 7-5 and Critic of it came back to win and then also in Dubai here last year Osterpenko Drop the first set came back to win. So it's happened twice in the last 12 months and one of those times was in this building Or in this stadium But golf's never done it. In fact, golf's never want to set against Shrion tech And she needs a fault golf second serve second serve golf Down the T the back of Shrion tech back in there from golf But Shrion takes in a challenge. It was called out late call Was a late call. She's gonna challenge The ball was called out If it's in it's a replay of it's out at 3040 and the ball was it was close It was on the line. Wow Terrible call that was like on the line obvious And they're gonna replay the point because Shrion tech is is not bothered because golf hit it back anyway So it deserved a replay 1540 Serving the back end of Shrion tech back in there from golf into the back of Shrion tech to the back end of golf Shrion took with the forehand golf gets with their own forehand down the line at the back end of Shrion tech Got forehand cross-court goes in the corner Shrion tech again to the front of golf back And now Shrion take on the stretch golf in control Shrion tech getting everything back though find a backhand now Shrion tech gets control back in down the middle into the corner Shrion tech again to the front of golf and golf in the net Shrion tech is so sneaky quick as well Because golf it's a really good shot, but didn't matter All right Here we go One love is this where the second set finishes in 10 minutes? We'll find out we'll go through the stats And Shrion takes like saying the umpire that was obviously in how do they get that wrong? In the she says in the nicest sweetest way possible that that umpire made a mistake In that first set by the way golf she hit 10 winners 20 errors Shrion tech eight winners 14 errors interesting Golf hit 16 forehand errors and backhand errors from Shrion tech So Shrion tech will know that the golf's hit a lot of errors on her forehand So she'll keep going there, but the back end of Shrion tech was the weak point So I wonder if golf picked up on that and can try and turn it around in this set So let me just tell you something about this match When these two players play It always goes an hour It's always gone an hour, but The longest match they played an hour and 45 minutes Which was the first time they played a clay court match in Rome on average About an hour and 20 minutes the longest matches So she's played the last time they played was an hour and 10 in san diego was an hour and five In in miami was an hour and 16 So it's going to be longer than that unless Shrion tech wins this the next two minutes But this match usually goes Just over an hour so an hour and a half Again is progress Again, I think today's match is not really about winning. It's about progress for uh for golf 15 love Shrion tech has the set in the break Return now to the forehand shrion tech find out from golf into the forehand shrion tech to the forehand of golf golf in the net and golf starting to panic 30 love Yep, cool is the next match coming on straight after this um So stay tuned I'm excited. I reckon the next match has has potential to be uh To be the match of the week 30 love So there's an ace out wide bang shrion tech with an ace you'll take that So, uh, yeah, so the next match will be the second semifinal Which starts at uh Which starts in about 45 minutes or if this match goes longer than that It will start when it starts First served as a fault second serve 40 love there's another serve from shrion tech Serve out why the back end of golf golf hits it out to love shrion tech um Eager and eerie lehetka look like brother and sister I think lehetka looks a little bit like umbear. Does anyone else think that I feel like they look a little similar I don't know why I feel like they've got a bit of uh Similar features I don't know They're skinny. Yeah, they're both skinny I don't know in the face. I feel like I don't know All right shrion tech with the winner down the line. This is gonna be our finish This is shrion tech showtime now She's up a break and a set This is what she does Great back end down the line golf just confused at the net Yeah, look golf can hit an approach, but you got to be better than that. You got to be ready to ready to volley golf looks She looks done As we're going to return now shrion tech down the line golf with the forehand on the stretch Shrion tech forehand into the front of golf to the back end of shrion tech Again to the front of golf back in that shrion tech to the back end of golf golf just hanging around But not good enough love 30 golf looks Tired now She looks spent love 30 as golf steps up to the line Can she fight back? She did come back from a little bit back in the first set She serves a fault second serve golf by the way this uh, if this does go six love It means that she equals what she did the french open. She won four games there She's won more games than the last time they played as she double folds golf Second service very soft second serve Um, so yeah the last time they played it was six three six love The time before that was six love six three Six one six three in the french open six three six one in miami And then seven six six three in 2021 when uh shrion tech wasn't quite Well, wasn't the player she is now as that goes out from golf three love three love Easy for eager All right three love Uh, I think it's going to be six love. That's uh the way it's going right now. Yeah. Yeah, it look It's such a shame as well because golf it felt like golf had a little momentum at the end of the first set but Doesn't matter Didn't carry it over at all Will it be a bagel a breadstick? I think golf will get one game I think it'll be I I think if she's going to get bagel a breadstick. I think I'm going to go breadstick I think she'll get one game at least Uh Shrion tech lives in the platter Yeah, the bathroom break helped Uh, shrion tech mentally destroys opponents. Uh, hopefully krejikov can Uh can become uh can do something because golf uh, so pagula Um might go down the same way. Yeah Just like I mean look we were we were going to see these players play at the Australian Open and We didn't get that we got Rebecca to take an honest of pinco instead But we just saw pagula play shrion tech right I mean, let me know in the chat Who do you want to see play the final shrion tech playing uh pagula again or shrion tech playing krejikov? Who would you rather play? Who would you rather see? Because we did just see pagula But I would like to see pagula try and I would I would love to see pagula have another shot at playing playing a week later, right? um But then again, krejikov might might it would probably make for a better matchup Uh, if anything goes, uh, their last matches are to go by right? A lot of people go on krejikov. Okay I guess shrion tech fans are going pagula. Well, that's fine I would too if my favorite player was playing and you want the easier match But krejikov it would have a more it would make for a better matchup if you're going by their previous meetings All right, good return and the backhand was too good from shrion tech 15 love a strawberry match Served entity is a fault second serve shrion tech Pagula is rested and has already made shrion tech cry It I guess it comes down to who like if pagula wins easily today That's the she can't have a long match today pagula. Otherwise tomorrow is going to be a nightmare If pagula does win today, she's got win easier like she's got to win You know straightforward and shrion tech gets it out All right a little bit too aggressive 15 all today is pagula's birthday as well. Yeah Happy birthday to her Happy birthday to her 15 all Hey, Barbara would fight pagula gets double bagel Uh demario. Thank you for the donation. Okay So you think that uh, krejikov would fight. I don't know. I feel like shrion tech could could quite possibly I mean look if if sabbling could can bagel krejikov So can shrion tech so I don't know I don't know if krejikov is a sure thing not to get bagel We've said that so many times about anybody, right? How many players have we've said oh this player like samson over this week samson over might actually push fion tech Yeah, okay Cool story six one six love like It's never what it seems It's almost like fion tech looks at their last resulting goes that would never happen again and then embarrasses their opponent She did that with samson over. She's done that with pagula The only person she hasn't done that with is reback in her as fion tech hits that wide Rebacking is the only player to beat fion tech and then again But everyone that's fion tech even colons, you know colons last week everyone was saying oh colons one last time Shrion tech went whatever Samson over got three sets last. I've got a three setter last time All right, cool. So I don't know maybe maybe krejikov is not the best from best person to play Shrion tech might come out with a little anger Has been a four on a four on rally 30 all and goth just can't get that point clutch From fion tech 40 30 Babora is a former french-even champ. Yeah, she is she sure is Okay, 40 30 She's fion tech to get It's a full love here in the second First serve is a let Again, thank you so much for joining us. Don't forget to subscribe You haven't already we've got the second semi final coming up next. We've been watching so much of this tournament um I've really enjoyed it. We've watched a lot of it. So wt 1000 we've watched it like it's a slam All the big names from uh from the start Has it a backhand a backhand rally going now into the front of goff Into the back end of shrion tech that goes in the back end of goff shrion tech with a forehand on the stretch gets it For now from goff down the line is long and it's for love shrion tech with a shake of the fist And that's the thing shrion takes a forelove But she's she's winning every point like it's like she's not Like she's down for love and she's like i need this point Whereas goff's playing like she is down for love and she has no hope in hell Just a mental thing mentality thing Uh for love can goff avoid a bagel that's where we're at sad but true shrion techs won 16 of the last 19 points in this set There's been 19 points shrion takes one six uh one 16 of them Goff's won three points in this set so far One of those was on serve Goff serves Now why the four to shrion tech shrion tech hits it out 15 love I see only one player who can beat shrion tech rebeckina Yeah, rebeckina is the only one who's done it consistently Like we haven't seen rebeckina lose to shrion tech. I think that's the biggest thing We haven't seen her get beat by shrion tech badly Everyone else we've seen in the top 10 Has been whooped it whooped by shrion tech at some point 30 love No one's been able to get through shrion tech Or at least no one's avoided being bagled or being beat up by shrion tech and that includes garcia sabalenka. They're both been beat up 40 love in fact that might be interesting to go through shrion tech's record against top 10 players and let's see if she's uh Besides rebeckina is anyone else in the top 10 that hasn't been embarrassed by shrion tech Served from goff in the fordish fion tech return goes in 40 15 nice return from shrion tech. Wax the winner 45th 45th is Goff serves again just to get on the board She serves A foe second serve second serve Down the middle of the back of shrion tech for that from goff Is out again So this is what happens You go 40 love and goff's starting to really get Really emotional here Even when you're up 40 love you're not safe and I don't think I've seen goff Have any positive emotion today at all Not that she's had a reason to I mean she's been losing pretty much the inside time but She just looks like she's she's You know, she just looks like she knows what's happened. What's happening? Is it a find a find rally shrion tech is not going to miss goff with a winner though. Okay No bagel No bagel the breadsticks still on the table, but no bagel Goff gets on the board now Talking about top 10 is the ones that shrion tech has played and beaten Uh, so she obviously beat pagoola last week as number four in the world actually we'll start with we'll go from top to bottom, right? So Uh, she's beaten sabalenka 6263 that was in doha last year Uh embarrassed sabalenka. That's only one time. She's beaten hellip who was in the top 10 6162 that wasn't the french open in 2020 remember that shrion tech came out of nowhere to win that tournament Uh, she's also beaten sabalenka again 6262. She's beaten goff 636 love pagoola 636 love All of those players were number four at the time. Uh, she's beaten jaber 6276 That was at the u.s. Open final uh sakuri. She's beaten 6463 And again 6461 two times last year. Uh, she's also been sabalenka in a three setter Uh pagoola three sets garcia. She's beaten 6362 She's also beaten severe kennon who was number six in the world at the time french open final 6461 Uh, svetlina. She beat back in the day in rome 6275 She beat consivate who was in the top 10 at the time 626 love. She's beaten jaber 6262 Uh, she's beaten sabalenka on another occasion 6261. Uh, she's obviously beaten kazakhina 6263 Uh, she's never beaten benchich And she hasn't beaten rebeck in a badly, but I don't know if there's any other players left in the top 10. Let me check the current top 10 So she's fiontech She's kicked sabalenka's arse. She's kicked pagoola's arse. She's kicked jaber Garcia goff sakuri kazakhina the only two players that she hasn't embarrassed rebeckina benchitch Out of the top 10 list currently So let's see and then outside the top 10 11 kudamatova embarrassed her last week samsonova number 12 embarrassed her this week So only two players in the top 12 Fiontech has not embarrassed now. She might have embarrassed benchage In a other match maybe let me check when benchage wasn't top 10 Let me check um Yeah, she has she's beaten her two two and two last year in adelaide or two years ago in adelaide So she has embarrassed benchage Six two six two before but she's never embarrassed rebeckina. So only one player In the current top 10 has not felt shreontech's wrath The only time they played was a strava two years ago and was seven where shreontech won. That's not that embarrassing. It's not it's So that's the only player rebeckina is the only one Who has not felt this this seen this version of shreontech used I should say Love 15. Let's see if golf can avoid a bakery a trip to the bakery Bring back rebeckina Yeah, and look, I think it's a matter of time. I think one of these days rebeckina will get The shreontech treatment it's gonna happen Double fault though from shreontech. All right Love 30 It's only I think it's only a matter of time because everyone's gonna take A beating by shreontech, especially if the next two years But so far rebeckina has avoided Such a such a result All right, love 30 out of the top 10 currently All right, here we go. Love 30 Serve it while the form of golf golf in the net. That was a chance to have a golf 15 30 The match time is on the fritz. What are you talking about? Isn't that the current match time? They've been playing for 450 65 thousand hours I think that's how many times how long we've streamed this year Serve goes the back end of golf one app from shreontech is good Or is it out? It's out 15 40 Tennis channel is saying that shreontech is on trajectory to overtake serena. Whoa All right tennis channel, you know take it Just run the cold shower and chuck them all in there. That's come on just as that's a that's a little much Anyway, it's 15 40 serve down to the fault second serve shreontech Just run the cold shower for tennis channel, please Yeah, they got yeah, they're just a little rock hard at the moment. Just calm down. All right. She's won three slams Wait until they get to she gets to 10 and then we'll talk about it. All right double folds No bakery Progress progress progress Okay Four two I guess what in ten in tennis channels defense I'm guessing that this is what they've done Shreontech is 21 with three slams serena also had three slams at 21 Which is the shittiest comparison ever That's so dumb. How many players have had I mean monica sellas had what eight slams at 21 So come on let's just pump the brakes and enjoy shreontech for what she's doing Because come on we all know serena won like 12 slams until 30 or something like that And then she won 10 slams or more like in there. Yeah, come on Come on We don't need to compare shreontech to serena just yet Let's put it back in now to the volume of goff But goff hits it out I don't like I don't like those early comparisons because that's only going to put pressure on shreontech to do something that only only serena has done You know, it's so dumb You guys know if you've been a part of this channel, I like to look about I look at the players that are next So shreontech has to get to four which means she's going to be a better than uh osaka in those kind of players I'll just take it one one at a time. Hing has had five right at 18. Yeah, there you go I mean, you know, let's just let's just cool cool adjets love 15. I love 30. Sorry Tennis channel is getting a little bit over excited. It's weird. I'm surprised they're not getting uh Not pumping goff up more Because usually they're pumping up the americans and dismissing the uh, you know the foreigners Because they're a tennis channel in america. So they're gonna pump up the the locals, right? I love 30 Serving to the net second serve Second serve goff Is a double fault All right, love 40 and goff in trouble again But hey, look I said at the start of this match If the scores were closer than previous matches At least goff, you know made something different happen Even though it's clearly uh, not going to be enough, but that's all right No bagels Win as we're back in a backhand rally into the backhand of schwiązek for one effort goff from the stretch, but schwiązek gets it out 15 30 Um Look, it's not a great result for goff either way. I don't think goff fans should be happy with this result But the positive the silver lining Is that This result is better than the last So you're doing something that's working Different from the last time, you know what I mean 30 40 good serve Well, so almost at 700 likes appreciate that. Thank you everybody for joining. We've got uh, the big Uh, big match coming up next in about 25 minutes with uh, pagola and krujikova, which is a huge match So stay tuned. So about why the backhand schwiązek for one effort goff Into the forward schwiązek goff for the volley schwiązek with the backhand pass goff volleys it schwiązek forehand winner too good five two And schwiązek's serving for the match and to the final There's a big gap between the best and the rest. Yep the rankings show that And uh reality shows that right? um All right A koko must have come in with nothing to lose attitude But still can't take a step from schwiązek Yeah, like I I know that that's something that everyone says Like that's like i'm gonna go in with nothing to lose. She's the favorite, you know blah blah blah But the thing is she's not she didn't really come in here with a nothing to lose attitude because she was playing a little safe Like someone who's coming in with nothing to lose Would be someone who just goes crazy does crazy things tries to hit winners off every shot Ultra aggressive goes down in flames if necessary um But I don't think goff came in with nothing to lose. I feel like she did have something to lose You know, you don't want to lose to this lady worse than the last time You don't want to lose the same as last time. You want to at least make a better showing so she definitely had something to lose Even though She said she didn't but everyone says that because everyone that's what you have to say Yeah, she didn't play fearless exactly Someone who plays with nothing to lose is holger runa Right, that's someone who plays with nothing to lose Even elk res plays like that, right and they do have a lot to lose But they play like they're not they don't But goff did not play. I don't think she played like that today She played with something to lose and that was, you know, she didn't want to get embarrassed again She didn't want to get uh beaten badly again All right, fiontech's serving for the match to put a Booker spot in the final Of another 1000 event remember she's never lost a thousand event final She's never lost a thousand event semi-final either First serves a fault from shawntech second serve second serve shawntech Return goes in the back end and that goes out from goff 15 love Another serve coming up.

Look not the best win though To be fair shawntech did get a little shaky. She got broken a couple of times or got broken Uh to serve the first set it could have been two and two probably should have been two and two But uh, hey She'll take the win.
