Just like here three years ago and Riyadh a few months ago, we have these two in another big final. Let's hope Elena's sister is in the stands to bring the drama.
Current odds: Sabalenka 1.66, Rybakina 2.48

Want Ryba to win to get closer to Ayrna's numbers to make it a more competitive slam race, both have won every round in straights so something will obviously give, Ryba had the more difficult run. Quiz question, who was the WTA player to reach at least 4 Australian Open finals in a row, as this is now Saba's 4th Aussie final in a row, no googling.

Margaret Court?

Good to see the big 3 at the top of the rankings btw.
|

By:
wasn't court, more recent.
Ryba breaks |
|
By:
have to turn the volume down watching Saba as it's too much for my eardrums when I'm using earphones.
|
|
By:
poor outfit by Saba by the way, looks like a materinty dress
|
|
By:
Ryba playing so well here.
|
|
By:
really don't like on court coaching
|
|
By:
Saba is rattled this set, Elena showing no fear
|
|
By:
not even morillos are on Ayrna's side today
|
|
By:
that's a good stat, winner of the first set has gone on to win 20 of the last 26 Aussie opens
|
|
By:
bit like gaining pole position in F1, chances are once you're in front, you're going to win
|
|
By:
Ryba's made so many nervous mistakes
|
|
By:
Good match, but a bit boring with all these ATP style holds.
|
|
By:
Holding with 57% 1st serve for Ryba, 3 df's, tells you she's feeling it under pressure but somehow ahead
|
|
By:
Hingis was the last player to reach at least 4 aussie finals in a row, made 6 in total
|
|
By:
If Ryba doesn't win this Vukov isn't getting any tonight.
|
|
By:
We have a decider
 |
|
By:
both gone for a tactical toilet break
|
|
By:
Chanda Rubin btw is a very good side commie

Saba breaks
|
|
By:
about 8 were outsiders looking back
|
|
By:
Elena's finnished.
|
|
By:
Sorry, what I meant was how many of the 8 outsiders that took the first set in the last 26 finals went on to win the match ?
|
|
By:
Saba bigger odds at 3-2 than going into this decider.

oh Ryba
 |
|
By:
Not sure Saba needed to go for that monster bh off the return
 |
|
By:
Seeders rapid today, making sure they're catching all the big telephone bettors.
|
|
By:
good time for them to be active and not just let their bots run as during the graveyard shift.
|
|
By:
Saba in full choke mode. Did not see this coming 3-0* to 3-4*

2000 Davenport 61 75 Hingis

|
By:
for a great player like Sabalenka, she sure gets nervous during big Slam matches.
|
|
By:
2023 shouldn't be bolded
|
|
By:
Saba has bottled this
|
|
By:
Zverev 2 sets up v Thiem at the US Open was the biggest bottle job I've seen
|
|
By:
I remember that 2007 mug market, just because Serena had been out of sorts for a while.
|
|
By:
You never know with Saba. Might donk the next 2 games to lose or go on a heater for 3 games and be doing a winning speech in no time ! I hope Ryba wins as she's such a lovely character
