When people say they want longer highlights this is what they mean. More points and not slow motion replays. Keep up the great work. Love this channel
Much better than Roland Garros channel~
Yes...cant be bothered with slow motion on a live match too....rather they just left camera on normal view whole match 😆
Not to mention the high definition video content the ball movement is so smooth. Best broadcast this year are they broadcasting this in 4k its unbelievably clear
@@marklouieadame its 1080p (HD) but still very good
@@joanisapro i see full hd still very clear and seems like on highbitrate, you can see their pores, calluses and blisters.
Long highlights, fast uploading. You guys are setting the standard for all GS TH-cam highlights out there. Good job AO! I can’t say this enough
Fr
We're looking at YOU, Roland Garos
Good job Aussi
YEEES
Was thinking the same thing.
Usually it's those 2 minutes highlights with completely random points.
These highlights were good and swiftly uploaded. That's the way to do it!
For people criticizing the quality of the match, it’s almost like one just had their honeymoon and the other just recovered from COVID. Not bad considering the circumstances.
Agree, specially Stephens made a lot of mistakes, to be honest I think Emma had one of the easiest 1r possible considering what you said about the honeymoon, and before that the weeding and all the preparations which consume a lot of time. Stephens came unprepared and was very noticeable
If I understand "honeymoon" correctly, it's getting star-struck and attending things like the Met Ball and all. Stuff like that could have really thrown her off track (and I think did for a while). The takeaway here is that Cinderella has tossed the dress and is back to work on her tennis. I think it will be in interesting sophomore season for her though. As for the Met Ball, I dunno, understand it's a once in a lifetime thing, I'm not into it, but I get it.
@@TheJhtlag Sloane got married on Jan 1, so most likely she didn’t spend a lot of time practicing for AO
@@TheJhtlag lol you are so fixated on trashing Raducanu that you completely got it wrong, Stephens had her honeymoon recently after getting married
@@TheJhtlag Dude those things last a few hours for them. What’s the difference between a public event they attend and something they do in their spare time? Emma has said she won’t cancel any practice for any other obligations she has.
One of Emma's greatest strengths is her consistency point after point - no matter what point, she seems to focus really well
Point after point ans she loses set? hahahah
shes out
She’s overrated
Comment did not age well lol
@@JK-xz6mj haha yea, She had hand issue but that only show how bad she is prepared for season
Lol. She sure was picking on Stephen's backhand. In the third set, looks like she adjusted the strategy.
Yup she admitted that after the match, she said in the press conference that she admired Stephen's backhand. She always give respect for her opponent, that's the one I like her most
@@loveadkins that's funny. Admires it, yet picked on that shot a lot. I mean it's possible for sure. It's just the irony of what happened in the match.
@@JiraiyaSama86 yes she also want to pick another Stpehen's backhand and defence. I think that is called smart strategy.
@@loveadkins if doing those gives her more of an advantage, yeah. 👍
Really enjoy the 7-8 minute highlights. With long matches perhaps show the deciding points late in the sets more. Thanks AO!
She really went for Sloane's backhand the whole time. Smart game.
Happy to see Emma get focused and rethink her strategy in that third set. She started hitting more backhands down the line and mixing it up a bit. She's still lacking some of the firepower and depth she had during her USO run, but hopefully that will come in time as she settles into the tournie. Interesting 1R battle between two USO champs.
Goodness. This match was swinging to extremes play and point wise. Congratulations to Emma.
she is a one hit wonder
I love the extended highlights. This is awesome. I enjoy it.
A good win for Radacanu against a vastly more experienced player who has won a U.S. open.
That said, Stephens has been something of an underachiever since.
Let's hope Radacanu doesn't do likewise.
Raducanu is also a US Open winner! They were a well matched pair, albeit Stephens seemed a little lowly.
A big win by Raducanu even though she was seeded higher. Stephens in US open should not be considered as a low seeded player. It almost feels like her first win after US open title. Congrats!
She just a teen still... I foresee great things coming from Emma, maybe carrying the women tennis torch from Serena.
@@patricklord1388
I hope that will happen for Emma. But that is a very tall order. I love Emma and time will tell.
@@patricklord1388 I still think Osaka has that on lock but Emma is doing well too as early on in her career as she is. I’m a massive Osaka fan but can also say that she did well in this match against Sloane, let’s see how she performs after this
I think the bathroom break along with Sloane not hitting the ball like she did in the second set with the difference in pace is what made her lose this match. She was making simple errors on slow serves in that last set, which caused her to get down fast and ultimately undid all her progress.
Very appreciated Australian Open TV. You set a new standard what a match highlight should be like. You will get many new fans and subscribers. Hoarding the played matches with very short 1 minute highlights or no highlights did no good to anyone. We are looking at you guys: French Open, Wimbledon, and US Open.
Eurosport, on the other hand, has made a complete pigs ear of things for subscribers. Trying to locate a match you want to watch is just blasted hopeless. And then the changeover adverts will often go over the first point or two of the next game. Such contempt for your customers is disgraceful. I hope the people who are deciding who is going to have streaming coverage of future tennis matches are paying attention.
Amazing highlights!!! Thanks AO!
A great match from both ladies. Emma moved really well in this match, when she was on the far side of the screen and did forehands, her body sprung up and moved like a bird, very airy. Best luck with you Emma for the rest of the tournament.
Great highlights! Thank you from Nome, Alaska! Minus 11!
Emma broke a lot of hearts today. All the people hoping to trash her for losing in the first round didn't get their chance. 🤐
I like your comment
This comment did not age well
@@kylestewart1439 And why is that? This comment was about this tournament and not any other.
@@jouc12_75 because you made it sound like Emma was proving the haters wrong and showing she's still capable at competing on grand slam level wich didn't really happen because she lost in the second round and her win loss ration proves the haters to be right
@@kylestewart1439 The keyword of the post is "today"
Glad Emma won. She didn't dominate despite the score. It was more like she outlasted Sloane in a battle of who could keep the ball in. Not many winners or errors forced, but solid tennis. Not sure she can out hit Osaka, Sabalenka, Sakkari, or out last Halep, or Svitolina, and Barty can beat her with power, or consistency. Bottom line though is, it's good to see Emma back in the "W" column against a quality opponent.
Emma beat Sakkari at US Open pretty convincingly.
@@krhee5122 That's true and is evidence of Emma's potential, but I think anyone would admit that the US Open was an outlier in terms of Emma being on a huge roll and not necessarily a measure of her match to match level of consistent play. For that level of consistent high level tennis, look at some one like Barty, who just dominates week in and week out, tournament after tournament, no matter who she is playing. Literally Barty has all the shots and serves and plays with great tennis intelligence concerning execution and shot selection. Barty is nearly a flawless tennis player. For her to lose, she has to be on a really off day, or her opponent has to be having a career day to beat her. I think the most incredible thing about Ash is, she makes it all look so easy, almost effortless, and she is just never, ever flustered, no matter what happens, she just keeps grinding and just winning. She consistently makes her opponent have to play perfect tennis to beat her.
@@ReidVV Barty is consistent but chokes. 75% win rate and only 2 majors at age 25. Emma is the opposite, she'll flop at a WTA 250 event then turn up a major in full battle mode looking like the trophy is calling her
@@ReidVV Agree that Barty looks like a complete player at this time. Emma has just started her first full year in the senior tour. I am curious to see how she will be two years from now.
@@BOZ_11 well Osaka won 4 slams out of her 7 titles.
Emma's low error strategic style reminiscent of Hingis, and will win her a lot of matches. Going to be hard to move consistently through majors without more weapons, but she already proved me wrong once.
Her natural style is to go for risks and hit winners, under her new coach she's adding more defensive abilities and taking longer to construct points. To stay on top you need to adapt or other players figure you out.
She’s got more than enough weapons, her return of serve and shot making ability on both sides is impressive but especially the backhand. She’s only just starting as well so she should get stronger and stronger.
Emma style of playing tennis is similar to Steffi Graf.
@@flash-uj6ly maybe defense wise. But Steffi had a big and deadly accurate forehand that she could flatten out. And people underestimate how difficult her backhand slice was to get pace off of. And she knew how to use both in patterns to generate winners. Emma doesn't know how to work the point to create opportunities yet, she is mostly just retrieving and hoping for errors.
@@bwiz6514 I only said her serve is similar to Steffi Graf.
That match winner. Truely majestic!
I really miss these game I am glad for the highlights
In a post match interview, Stephens said Radacanu had a lot to learn - like how to lose bitterly maybe?
I have never heard of the loser telling the winner that they have a lot to learn.
I mean she wasn’t wrong... the wrong messenger but the right message. People are putting a lot of pressure on her and now that she’s out of the open, she’s received support but backlash too. Let her grow as a player
Looks like Emma is born for playing grand slam
not the biggest fan of Emma’s the game style change. Definitely more of a grinder compared to the US open but it worked and seemed in way more control than the rybakina match. Serve and ball striking were cleaner
Well, if you want to stay at the top, you have to learn how to grind out some matches. Especially if you want to win on bad days.
Definitely true I’m glad she’s building shot tolerance and variety. It’s better to do it now, early in the career
Watch the entire match. Stevens was dumping balls into the net or they were flying long. 42 unforced errors? That's not gonna cut it.
@@BranSay Sure, she beat an error-prone Sloane. But not impressed with Emma. (The media wants to create a star, and she's not yet that -)
@@Hammerton32 Yup she beat a player with no coach that hasn't played one match since October. While everyone was warming up for Australia, Sloane was getting married.
Highlights are awesome, only thing to change: both players in the thumbnail!
Great highlights and well done Emma! 👏
Emma tennis game is nice... Reminds me a lot of Li Na, similar striking and movement on the court.
Emma to the world: Are you not entertained.
the mob: Briton! Briton! Briton!!!
Wow!!! Nobody does it better than AO TV. 💯
Emma is slowly regaining her confident again.. she ll go from strength to strength just like US Open..
It's not that, she is a big game player. She'll turn up at a WTA 250 event and get bagel'd, then start a major and bagel a former major winner. Crazy
@@BOZ_11 She has around a 75% win record which says otherwise, she made the final at a WTA125 event right before the US Open.
@@jgooner894 thats because most of her matches are where she has her war face on (the majors). Moving backwards, lost to Rybakina (round of 32, WTA 500). Lost to Wang, (Round of 16, WTA 250). Lost to Kostyuk (QF, WTA250). Lost to Sasnovich (Round of 64 in a Masters). She won the USO before winning a single WTA match. It's a matter of fact, you just don't know what you're on about
@@BOZ_11 No, that 75% is from from around a 100 matches from her pro circuit career over ITF and WTA. She only started WTA in June so there’s not a big track record to go off. You can’t use her WTA record as a big argument, do some research before talking.
@@jgooner894 then i expect her percentage to fall away to something like 60%, since, whether you agree or not, Emma is a very different animal at 250/500 events than she is at the majors. That's all the evidence we've got so far.
Excellent match Emma. 加油. You have demonstrated in the 3rd set ability to be flexible and make required adjustments. All the best.
Great highlights. What an improvement. Emma has real game. Impressive win even with Sloane being rusty.
Sloane didn't even look bad. Raducanu is just a beast.
Let's go Emma, fresh and sharp tennis ! Keep up the level
Raducanu is such a beautiful player, so graceful and with perfect balance! I don't think she will win it, but you never know!!!
Both ladies played incredible tennis. Wow.
Great Play for both in 1st round. Both were US Open Champions.
More like Slow Stephens! What happened to the intensity and athleticism that she is loved for?! I really hope we haven’t seen the last of her because I truly am a fan.
She got married recently and probably wasn’t prepared as she should be
She doesn’t have a backhand right now. All Emma had to do was hit to her backhand and either wait for an error or open up the court. An even mildly prepared Sloane would’ve easily won this match.
@@DeepSeas.. Even a mildly prepared Sloane would have won easily???? My god people talk such nonsense. Why don't you ask Sloane why she hadn't bothered to play in months and focus on a wedding??? If this, if that, blah blah......
You played superb
You played with guts
You laid it all out
Two great champions
With long extended rallies
The balls were flying
The serves were fast and coming in
The will of steel never wavered
The first set was full of great energy
Perfection in all areas
The second was tough
But you did not give up
Fought till the last
Lost the second
Came out with a new game plan
With renewed new energy drop shots great serves
And till the last the rallies continued
Two champions fighting till the last
Drop shot
You won
And then gave a marvelous gracious interview showing your appreciation for Sloane grit
This is absolute humbleness class you possess
It was a pure joy
Did not watch it
But was listening to the stream
Commentary
Congratulations
For a wonderful win
Beautiful
Emma
Radicanu
I read Sloan's comments about the start of the match before I saw these highlights (only caught the last two sets live).
Having seen the moment I really can't fault Emma - her "Come on" wasn't that aggressive and wasn't even directed at Sloan. I feel like that whatever a player needs to do within reason on court to get in their winning headspace is fair game, and should be expected.
Having now seen the moment, I hate to say it but Sloan's comments really come off bad.
Don’t think she was annoyed by Emma’s “Come on”. She just acknowledged it with how she came out super aggressive.
@@jgooner894
“Everyone saw after the first point she gave like a massive scream,” Stephens said. “She played me, someone she’s ranking-wise supposed to beat. And, I mean, yeah, she won.” former world no.3, 6 time title holder, and 13 year veteran...
“I was talking to someone in the locker room and I’m like, ‘We’ll be here when she comes down’,”
Sore loser doesn't even begin to cover it. There's a lot to be said for owning your losses and being professional. And that ain't it.
A 17 minute first set bagel...honey I would have faked an injury or took a Tsi Tsi bathroom break. Sloane was looking like a club player out there.
Tbh I was embarrassed for her considering how dangerous she used to be I’m disappointed
Go Emma!!! And yasss to the new racquet!!! A breath of fresh air with a new racquet is always a good thing!!! Don't be afraid of trying new equipment. Also, different strings and tension. Stephen Edberg strings at 57 on the mains, 55 on the cross, for example. Different string material, natural gut and polyester. String thickness. 17 gauge. Love the variety!!! Shot selection is key. To have an effective strategy is execution and shot selection is part of the execution. Keep going for shots because that adds to the courage to go for it. Which is essential on later rounds. Keep going for shots with spin. The spin is the key to higher margins of safety to land inside the lines and spin prevents the opponent from an easy put away. Keep moving forward; especially, after a great shot. End the point at every opportunity; especially, at the net. Aggression, and controlled aggression. Play the mid-court whenever possible. Change in direction to keep the opponent always moving. All your fans are always very proud of you, Emma. Go, go, go, Emma!!!!!!!!
So smart and talented play by Emma Raducanu. Definitely a star of new generation in women tennis.
Emma de regreso 👏👏👏❤
Well played Emma! Stephens is a quality and a solid player.
Raducanu es un fenómeno llegará muy lejos.Suerte Young girl
Not to take anything away from Emma because it seemed she played well but Sloane is clearly not in form. I’m actually shocked Sloane came to Australia. Very few players can come into a grand slam with no matches and start winning. I want to see how Emma does with an inform player.
If Emma goes to semi final people will say because she has an easy round and every player are not in form
@@marklouieadame Are you a seer? You predict what people are going to say .... if she goes to semifinal. Smartkid makes a valid point there based on fact.
@@marklouieadame I’m not knocking Emma, she’s obviously talented, but Sloane fresh off a wedding with no matches is not a good barometer as to where she is.
@@marklouieadame No, this is already a harder draw than the cake-walk USO draw Raducanu had. She never had to play a grand slam champion in that draw; Leylah took out all of them. Now she has a tough draw in R1, and it will benefit her. The rallies in this match were outstanding when they didn't end in an early unforced error. I couldn't believe some of the shot making from Raducanu, whom I consider a top 50-100 player at best.
@@sorellman look at what ls going on US open they say because she had a cake walk? I was like she had sakkari and bencic (fresh from tokyo gold medalist) and people still call it cakewalk. It just that emma won on straight sets while leyla ilneed to fight hard to get a win. If you look at firepower you will see the difference thats why emma won US open.
Commentator gems. “Alive and fighting!” “She’s fired up!”
Excellent play
No cabe duda hay juventud de sobra
Still undefeated in Grand Slam Matches! 💪
Sloane Stevens is the very definition of good grace and true sportsmanship. What a credit to her family.
Can some one please make a compilation of every time every player on tour tells “come on!” throughout 2022…
Emma was beginning to show some of her previous US magic and that's looking very bright indeed.
Not looking bright enough, I can see problems ahead. She’s too fragile both physically and mentally to beat the big hitters, needs to toughen up first.
@@jamessmythe1891 She just need to have faith and believe in herself how she was able to be the US Open Champion without losing a set.
@@taykokhuat faith and belief ain’t enough she needs physical and mental strength plus tennis skills to place shots to outwit opponents, I can’t see it short term.
@@taykokhuat yeah, seeing the other players she has no chance of winning. All the top players collapsed in us open, but this isnt happening here
@@jamessmythe1891 She’s strong physically and mentally especially for her frame and she’s still developing, she’s only been at this level since June so she’s kind of still a junior even though she won the US Open. Some players could hit harder than her in matches but hardly any will move better.
Big relief for Emma to win this opening round over Sloane. Hope she can continue to improve her form in the next rounds. Good luck!
Emma is Back!
Love that dropshot that these players have on all surfaces. Raducanu has a VERY cool look to her and her game. Just a very appealing young player. Course. I remember thinking something similar about Stephens, when she was new on the tour. Romanian dad and Chinese mom. She loses 2 rounds later, but if you've been keeping an eye on Swiatek, who is young and won big in France, last year, she's dropped off a bit, because she had to get used to people amping up to play her. Plus. Dealing with the change in her life after winning a grand slam. A lot of expectations, these days, and it may be unreasonable to think these young athletes can be as single minded and focused on career success as they were a few decades ago. Personally. Players, like Osaka, going through very powerful stuff, emotionally in their lives, doesn't seem like a distraction to people like me. It seems more 'real.'
Emma is the real deal!
We’ll see
Sloan wasn’t consisted like her second set win. Congrats Raducanu 👍
What no blister's 😭😅🤣😂
I predict emma will beat kovinic in the next game on thursday. But, it is going to be a hell of a fight to the end. That is for sure.
She didn’t unfortunately. It’s all a learning experience!
Come on Emma!!
Wow! looks like someone got inspired by Andy Murray growing up, shes a beast!
Miss u more than ever Roger!
I am very confused why they didn't call the serve let?
I never trust anyone who can win set 1 6-0 but lose set two 2-6 then comeback and win set three 6-1. That seems more like a Stephens let down after being actually motivated in set 2.
Solid win by e.r.
This gave me a whiplash. Congrats Emma.
If Em continues to play this consistent attacking tennis she will win this slam also.
Not with Barty around
@@marya852 Fatty Barty? Ha!
Lets not get ahead of ourselves now..Sloane hadnt played any matches this year and she just got married but Emma did play well.
@@borood1188 fat? ur an imbecile. she’s built with muscle, and she’s short.
@@marya852 Can it, chubs!
I thought she may gone astray, after so much attention. And a string of loses. She played a great Game. She looks fit & resolute. Still agressive. She is graceful. Looks like a ballerina.
Ok....In this match it was a tale of two individuals at different points in their careers. For Sloane to win, she needed to play much more aggressive and put Emma on the run to open up the court. For Emma to win, she needed to be able to outhit Sloane from different areas of the court. Emma won because she likes to dictate play and she hates playing offensive while Sloane is the opposite. Emma knows this and picks on Sloane's backhand and mediocre serve throughout the match. Sloane likes pace but she likes it when a player is hitting hard but can't move as well, see her matches against Keys, Venus vs Serena and you get my point. Emma was smart enough to drill it more to the center and this forced Sloane to create her own angles. Sloane's footwork, forehand are incredible. But every other part of her game is questionable especially mentally! It makes me wonder if we are seeing the decline of Sloane. That being said: I don't think that Emma will win this tournament. Something about her that screams "overhype." But, she's much better than say, Gauff.
I think Sloane should've kept the game plan from the second set! More shape on her balls and switching the pace. If she did that than I think the match would have been hers.
Emma win because Sloane currently has no backhand. That’s it. Sloane actually kinda exposed her when she resorted to slicing every backhand in the second set. Against a player like Barty it’d be a bloodbath.
@@DeepSeas.. I disagree, Sloane definitely has a backhand she’s just rusty and doesn’t have a solid coach. Now I do agree with the fact that Emma doesn’t handle spin will with any slice so it should be interesting to see Barty and her play in another tournament
Excited to see how deep Emma can go in this tournament. Sloane's body language had all the enthusiasm and charisma of a Sam Querrey and that's not good.
It still irks me how Sam Querrey didn’t acknowledge Andy Murray’s clear hip problem in his match at Wimbledon on the court or post match. He celebrated like he didn’t just beat an opponent on his last legs.
@@jgooner894 You referring to that match back in 17 ? Yeah last 2 sets were 6-1 6-1 so that alone tells me Andy wasn't right physically
@@ivandesantis858 Yeah he was limping throughout, particularly towards the end. That’s the injury that’s put him out of the top of the game the last few years.
@@jgooner894 I tell you what he looked damn good at the end of 21 in those indoor tournaments and had some big wins against a few of the young guns and he's through round 1 at the Australian Open
Good started.
Sloane actually played great considering she hasn’t played that much, and that’s most aggressive I’ve seen her play. Emma also played great considering are lack of recent matches.
Bravo Raducanu ! 👋👋👋
I haven't looked at the draw but I didn't think Stephens was playing due to wedding a few weeks ago. Emma won because she's more match ready and was more consistent.
well done, ems. showed you're hardly a fluke.
A happy ending but she's not going for winners here anything like as much as in the US Open. Torbyn effect? Good practice for now, but she'll need to close out points much faster further up the food chain.
Happy with Emma's win but I'm concerned if she were to play against big hitter players in the next round. She really needs to play smart.
She said in her press con that Sloane is very good defensively so she was being more aggressive so she accepted she’d probably make more errors than usual, her plan will change depending on the opponent and she’ll get progressively better I think with matches.
perfect
Stephens has no get up and go with her game, been that way since she won the USO a decade ago! At this point she has become a mercy draw cause her game is the most lackluster of any player on tour!
I was a bit surprised with how Stephens played - kind of tentative in the first set and not hitting like I've seen her capable of in the past. I guess there's some COVID rust here and there.
Emma will be one of the greatest. She is one of the best among the young génération with Alcaraz. She has incredible power shorts for her age with a great accuracy And concistency.
She is Very smart Also. Did anyone spotted how she noticed that stephens prefered and strong shot is her two handed backhand ? She forced her to go with that move during the whole game and led her opponent to an exhaustion point. And it worked for the 1st set. Stephen made a lot of errors and her two handed backhand became weak.
2nd set. Stephens acknowledge that her systematic two handed backhand caused the loss of the 1st set and décide to go with her forehand more often. Emma could have played more with her forehand to change the direction of the ball more often and place the ball very far away from the americain player. Stephens wins thé 2nd set of course.
Its a Very dangerous strategy to attack your opponent on her strong shots. Mainly if you cant win the set when your are not serving.
If she was playing against a more expérienced player like Osaka she could not win the 3rd set with the same strategy.
Sloane made a pusher actually look like she was balling!
EMMA is going to be a BEAST at around the age of 25, she's only a baby at 19 right now 😆 🤣
Emma is the sweetest tennis player :)
one had a honeymoom vs one had covid...
Well, Emma finally made it! I am worried your first game the whole night!
Radu is on fire!!!
Stephens is such a hot and cold player. Stephen's was basically just getting the ball back NOT crushing it like she normally does. No rhythm whatsoever in Sloane's game giving everything back to Raducanu. A very pitiful performance by Stephen's.
She's got the game to win the Australian Open, she's up there with the main contenders with the likes of Osaka, Halep, Swiatek and Sabalenka.
Think Barty, Badosa and Kontaveit are more likely than some of them right now.
@@jgooner894 Kontaveit just lost, unfortunately. :(
This is Emma's first match since the USO that she really played well .She looked great.
the beginning of Sloan love life w Altidore was the end of her (and his) professional career in my opinion.
Think she performs well in a grand slam , nevertheless I can see a nadal in her
Can Raducanu repeat LIGHTNING IN THE BOTTLE from last season? We'll find out. One thing's for sure, she aint sneakin up on anyone this year. Ppl studied her. Lets see what she's got
'Comeon'.....the real Raducnu
lovely Emma is back
Emma!!
Two us open champions in a first round of a slam ? Don’t they have seeding in oz ?
