What do you think of women's tennis in the context of the level of current female players? Is it comparable to the 90s, Steffi Graf, Monica Seles or Gabi Sabatini?

Funny that you mention Gabi together with the two others. Graf and Seles were amazing tennisplayers. Sabatini was a lot less amazing at tennis. But definately amazingly beautiful… 😆
I think the players are more even now. But the absolute top was better in the old days. 😊

Elina Svitolina is the best tennis player! I've been following her performances since the futures, which she played in her youth. I wish Elina to represent worthily Ukraine at the upcoming Wimbledon!

Unfortunately, I did not watch the matches of that time, but the current level suits me quite well.
Matches that Iga, Arina, Belinda, Petra, Paola give us are amazing

Watched the match between Sloan Stevens and Donna Vekic at this Wimbledon. Sloan led 6-4 and 5-4 and... yes, she lost! So embarrassing! In the 3rd set, she was down 1-0 and 0-40 in Vekic's serve! Not only did Sloan not win another set, but she lost her next serve and led 40-0. This is my face then :eek: After that match, I decided I wasn't going to watch women's tennis. :oops::sick:

It seems like a 3-way battle this season between Swiatek, Sabalenka and Rybankina at the top of the women's tennis hierarchy

Was a gritty performance by Iga just now facing a few match points in the second set

The grass surface is unfortunately not an ideal environment for Igi Świątek but I believe that she will succeed in winning.

I think women's tennis is very wavy compared to men's tennis. For women, tournament victories are perhaps much more distributed.
But regardless, I like women's tennis just as much as I like men's tennis.

Svitolina - Shventek got a crazy match today, and the bet went with a coefficient of 6 on Elina

I haven't watched women's tennis before, but now I watch tennis very often because I bet on tennis sports and I really need to watch tennis to win bets I think tennis used to be boring and unpopular now it's popular because there are bets and everyone is watching because of it

And what a shame I didn't bet on Elina for such huge odds. :confused: But still, it's just as nice that Elina beat essentially the main favorite to win this Wimbledon! That's awesome! Congratulations to all women's tennis fans. :cool::D

It is difficult to compare the past with the present. There is a lot of money involved in modern sports, so the level of sports, including tennis, is an order of magnitude higher than in previous decades.

She recovers her level of play extremely quickly.

Women's tennis in great form! Big 3 of Swiatek, Sabalenka, and Rybakina will carry the sports!
It's unfortunate Barty retire to early at her prime!

Always fascinating to pair players from present vs past!

Svitolina vs Sabalenka in the Finals will be intriguing!

Although, I'm high on Key's upsetting Sabalenka!

There is an opinion that with the help of different balls, women's tennis was tried to be as fast and spectacular as men's tennis.In general, the main source of difference between tennis players and tennis players is physiology. And nothing illustrates this better than presentation.Tall tennis players have longer arms and legs. And with skillful use, they can accelerate the racket faster and give the ball more speed.

Well, Sabalenka is a mood player. Yes, her style of play is very suited to the grass fast surface. But for all the power of her game, she is not the strongest tennis player in terms of game IQ. But I don't think we will see a Ukraine vs Belarus final. But, to be honest, I would love to see such a confrontation in the final. :cool:(y)

It is also interesting that women's tennis is now dominated by female players from former Eastern Bloc countries such as Poland, Belarus, Ukraine and Russia.
