I’ve played against her dad. He’s a darn good player!
What an inspirational family story! I hope she makes it or she already has :)
it's not a she but he, wake up, you have eyes to see but you don't...
you guys should’ve done naomi osaka
Junior results don't mean jack shit. There's plenty of players who were top juniors that tanked in the pros.
VegasGirl35 but in the same time top prof. players of tennis were the top junior players too
You are right
Great start! Keep shining young lady! I will keep an eye open on your progress! I remember back in the 90s when they did an article on the Williams sisters and they went on to do great and amazing things. You can too!
nigerians are so talented when will our govement fix system here so we can produce more talent
start protesting. A docile people don't change Govt's.
A HAAAAA.
She is half Nigerian
Going to continue junior grand slams, but skipped australia :thinking:
Nigeria 🇳🇬
Nigeria overpopulated with crooks.
Looks very good and professional..my money is on Naomi Osaka however
Daria Kasatkina
Agree
Wow. Naomi just won US Open
Nice call
TRUTH ENFORCER ew you
She should be 20 by now, what happened to her?
nope it not about juniors, its all about the pros
Bollettieri is the wrong choice. You learn more in Prag or Bratislava in their Training Centers
What are their records.
@@azieldaly2965 all those chech Davis Cup winners. Kvitova, Pliskovas etc
@@pmue437 Bollettieri has had many slam winners though.
@@azieldaly2965 a long time ago
I'll be back down there next month I've met her dad through my buddy living there. Hopefully I get to meet her!
Trans World Sport? Why not World Sport?
Cori Gauff is better
I see
Kostyuk Marta is 15 and has already gotten to the 3rd round of the Australian open
Lol u see this with every child of a tennis coach but rarely do they get anywhere because they grow showy and temperament
Andy Murray, Felix and Denis just to name a few.....
Her style plays like that of Belinda Bencic, but does she really like the sport ?
Tennis Addict she wants to earn money, thats why she's training so hard
The nigerian prince plays tennis.
Its always never good news when the parents are the tennis coach 99% of the time the child is force into playing the sport.
perhaps... but do you get a sense that she doesn't enjoy it?
What a load of crap wow
jason4275 most top 100 have coach parents
The Williams sisters did okay.
The Williams sisters did ok because Richard Williams did things differently. A lot differently. So you really can't compare him to the others.
She is Biafran not Nigerian, and she's going to be a tennis great player after Williams
SHAD MESCH OKOYE shut up
vechris2001 . What do you mean by shut up? You're one of the haters of Biafra
SHAD MESCH OKOYE u sound stupid asf. I'm no hater. Look at your mouth like Biafra mumu
Nah she aint gonna be nowhere near serena
Céline C . You will live to see her achieve greatness and even above Serena
Not fair because she was born into tennis in a amazing academy. she did not have to work for what u want
Love V yeah she had the resources but she still had to work for her skill level. You can't buy good physique and effort
It's not fair because she was obviously born as a man.
She looks really good. However, she should just bend her knees a bit more when she hits her forehand :)
My coach drills that into my team and I’s brains lol!
kaitlin mendes have u won a slam with your bended knees
You look like a Glamour Girl
Ntsako Shilubane yeah honestly, if it were a problem her coach would tell her. Some people seem to think you need to be squatting when you play. Also she was obviously just warming up.
@@darryldanzinger9996 you look like a creep
That forehand needs to be more compact, for sure.
What a cutie! The more of these exotic mixed race/latina babes the better.I'm all about diversity myself!😂
Funkslave Latina?
numbers 14 verse 28 say, so tell them as surely as i live, declares the Lord, i will do to you the very thing i heard you say. the bibles also says in isaiah 55 verse 11, my word will not return to me void, my word always produces resutls. if you say everyday, i win every tennis match i play, i win every tennis tournament i play in. just say it and believe in God's word that he will do to you what you say. it also says in mark 11:23, you shall have whatever you say 4-7-2018
Dad looks a bit mad
they said the same thing about Richard Williams
roter13 what do you mean?
And you look a bit jealous
another williams brothers story :)
Really sed, nowadays you'll only become at the top when their parents have lots of money. There are many childeren with more talent than her.
I'm sure she'll probably make the pros, but a champion? first thing she'll need is a growth spurt. ladies tennis has evolved and there won't be many under-5'10 ladies grand slam winners in the future. The pros are full of amazons now, who almost all the top contenders are great at the service return game; If you're short and your serve is never going to be capable of hurting anyone, I don't see it in regards to being a "prodigy" or winning all 4 grand slams.
Great point, i wanted to say that but too many sensitive people around.
First :)
aaaaaaaaaaaaand she's already quit
Epoch no she disnt
She looks female, so I guess she is transitioning? Interesting conundrum for the sport. She looks really good in those pants. She should stay a woman/girl.
Elmo Blatch she is not a transsexual
Lol
