Yea maybe... IT will be really nice for Daria, she deserves it. I watch her from Indian Wells vs Osaka - IT took a lot of time till she started playing some good matches. .
Beautiful game by Daria. First time I see her play and now I'm a fan. It's refreshing to see unique groundstrokes in female tennis, when 95% of players use the same classic wta forehand style. Hope she continues playing this good.
Cela va de soi que toutes les deux, á ce niveau de tennis, sont des athlètes, mais Dasha a ce côté artistique et intelligent dans son jeu que des joueuses comme Garbiñe n'ont pas. Brava Dasha!
Agree. The last few years, she has been looping the ball back with no placement or depth. Hope she's now thinking of ending the points rather than prolonging them. And that she improves her second serve.
Kasatkina & Kenin are my two favorite players. Just something so ballsy and cool about them, they sort of remind me of each other. Always happy when they win. The more Daria tightens up her mental game the further she’ll go.
Great to see Daria playing the kind of tennis we know she is capable of, she has such wonderful feel and court sense...one of my favourite players on the tour.....
Great showcase from Daria ! A well seasoned unconventional player . Daria plays to her own beat . Quirky and when dialed in, is very hard to read ! A ton of great fun to watch . Her persona has improved greatly and 💯 happy for her . Daria is a wonder 💭 and a mystery ! I have watched her for the past 5-6 yrs slump in her game due to injuries and just goof show off on court ! She is also her own worst enemy ! BUT a very skilled, talented and unpredictable player I must say . Daria is full of surprises ! Muguruza is a fan too but she struggled too much today . Her game is predictable and easy to disrupt !
Kasatkina has really started this year well. I remember thinking she was going to be a future #1 a few years ago. But I just don't think that serve will ever be good enough for her to be a true contender for Slams.
Her serve has improved a crap ton. I remember when she was world number 10 and was touted alongside Osaka to be a future Slam Winner, but Osaka has won 4 slams and Dasha took a huge dip. Nice to see her on the rise again.
@@TimofeyZelenov The second serve is the most important shot in women's tennis. You can't win slams serving like this because women return too aggressively.
Not really, this two always have very very tight matches. their h2h is at two all and all their matches went to 3 sets. Muguruza is a power player but she does not seem to be able to overpower Daria Kasatkina. She is kind of slow
Claim that top 5 scalp, girlie! Here's to a first Grand Slam trophy for this brilliant, versatile young player, able to parry power and create magic with angles, touch, and tremendous wheels!!!
Congratulations Daria Kasatkina. She played extremely well. She didn't allow Muguruza to have any rhythm. Both played awesome. Daria Kasatkina once more proved why she is still one of the best hard court specialists in WTA tour. Daria Kasatkina is also very intelligent tennis player. Daria Kasatkina is seriously on fire. Daria Kasatkina shouldn't be underestimated. She in both sets exploited Muguruza's weaknesses. Daria Kasatkina with her strategical and tactical style defeated Muguruza. Great match by Muguruza and awesome win by Kasatkina.
All that praise for Daria, why hasn't she won any slams nor even made semi-finals and has only won a few singles titles? You made her seem perfect, but reason and statistics show otherwise. Good game, though. This week. Get a brain.
@@markuse3472 You are without brain. Daria Kasatkina last season won 3 tittles. And in 2018 too she scored a tittle. So go get a life. Do your research, loser.
Definitely. I wish she were more consistent. Aside from her movement, she has the potential to be truly great. I think she gets in her head a lot and the confidence takes a dive.
Kasatkina is a running machine and wears down opponents. She seems to have more powerful forehand and more consistent backhand. I don’t think a lot of girls want to play against her.
Kasitkina has sadly been a bit of an underperformer. She was showing real potential at the same time as Barty, Osaka and sabalenka. But while the others quickly stepped up tot the next level (Osaka and Barty obviously BIG time) she’s not really advanced.
Yes, Kasatkina did not advance for about 1.5 years from the end of 2018 but she is on the way up again, but her game is suited for natural surface like clay and the green clay like grass. She may have some limitation that limited her progress. The other players that is talented in fact immensely talented , has far more potential than Osaka and Sabalenka about equal to Barty is Muchova, her career has been plagued with a lot of injuries, it is sad that she has been sidelined since the US Open.
I agree; she is kinda like the WTA Rublev, came out swinging at a very young age, made it to a couple of grand slam QFs, but just can't break through like Barty, Osaka, or even Swiatek
Exactly. It took a lot of time till she started playing from indian well vs osaka... Hopefully she wins. I think, IT was all about height - serve - weak serve and too many double faults + of course moving + using stronger power in hitting balls, IT took really long but i hope she's okay. GL in AO Daria 😊
I wish Mugu was more consistent. Aside from her movement, she has the potential to be truly great. I think she gets in her head a lot and the confidence takes a dive.
Sometimes it just seems like she isn't feeling it. She hardly moved at times in this match. Whether that's because she wants to stay healthy ahead of next week, I'm not sure. She looks good at the net right now though, which is a big positive for her.
@@andrewmark2783 I get that feeling as well. Sometimes she looks defeated or zapped of energy. She's pretty fit, so I always figure it's a mental thing with her, which would explain the not being into it. It's likely a mixture of everything we've said tbh. I agree, her net play is awesome right now. So well-rounded.
really hope this is the resurgence of kasatkina. she was the runner up of Osaka's during the latters ascend to superstardom. i thought kasatkina would be a rivel but she sunked instead. lol
I have some weird reservations about Muguruza still unfortunately. I just don’t think she has it in her to win another Slam. I’m not seeing the consistency, and everyone cites the fact she won the tour finals, but honestly I wasn’t impressed at the tour finals. She played like crap against Pliskova and barely beat Krejcikova. I don’t see her having a phenomenal year, she’s too streaky like Petra Kvitova. A title here or there, but they broke through and had their success in Slams already.
Same.. I didn't feel like she played particularly well in the finals and I wasn't impressed, yet came up with the trophy.. congrats to her of course cause that means she probably fought really well and she was quite resilient and solid when she needed to but I'm kinda like meh 🙄
I'm not very familiar with tennis. But from my point of view, garbine's service doesn't seem to make full use of the body's springs. What if she could make a more powerful service by making improvements to the behavior of her service? Her service appears to be powering the ball only with elbow-to-tip movements.
@@luisfernandez4057 Nope, she is terrible. I saw interview with Pavluchenkova, and she said that Muguruza is bitch in WTA along with Stephens. It's called karma when she is losing.
Sounds ridiculous since she is the type of person that needs a confidence builder and momentum going into a Major. If Alexandrova had her forehand under control first match, Mugu would have lost that one. There are some women on tour who are hungry for their first Slam and they have just as much talent. Mugu is not a major threat.
Never saw Daria Kasatkina play before. No reason for her not to become a top player. I don't see any real weaknesses in her game, but I'm sure I'll learn of any from the peanut gallery.

Mugz really has to step up her serving. Its hard to believe her team let her go out with a serve that weak. For a player as tall as she is, she should be hitting MUCH bigger serves, just through better technique. Just awful.
Hopefully this is her year. She's such a clever player. She's deserves big trophies
I could watch Kasatkina hit forehands all day. Hopefully 2022 is the year we see Kasatkina reach her pull potential.
Yea maybe... IT will be really nice for Daria, she deserves it. I watch her from Indian Wells vs Osaka - IT took a lot of time till she started playing some good matches. .

Who’s dasha ? She is Daria .
@@Amir-bw3sv "Dasha" is the diminution of name Daria in russian. The same with "Masha"- comes from Maria or "Sasha"- comes from Alexander.
@@weronikahmielewicz4033 Thanks for explaining that!
Congrats Kasatkina. I always like to watch her play.
Me too! Something gutsy and underdog about her and her drop shots are out of this world. She just needs to get that serve going a little better.
Mugu joue un tennis comme un athlete , et Dasha comme une artiste
Mais normalement, c'est l'athlete qui gagne, n'est-ce pas?
Absolument!
Cela va de soi que toutes les deux, á ce niveau de tennis, sont des athlètes, mais Dasha a ce côté artistique et intelligent dans son jeu que des joueuses comme Garbiñe n'ont pas. Brava Dasha!
I always have the feeling that DK is rather a passive player, but she's playing deceptively well at the moment. Long may it continue!
passive? she's an excellent defensive player
@@gillesderais834 That’s what passive means. You’re either a defensive or offensive player and of course it’s good to balance the two.
Agree. The last few years, she has been looping the ball back with no placement or depth. Hope she's now thinking of ending the points rather than prolonging them. And that she improves her second serve.

Outplayed!! Well done!
Amazing to see Daria playing at her best level.
Dasha is my favorite player in th WTA.
Great to see Daria playing the kind of tennis we know she is capable of, she has such wonderful feel and court sense...one of my favourite players on the tour.....
Даша,поговори с Рублёвым,он подскажет как "рубить" а не накидывать..но за победу спасибо,красотка)
Im so very happy the DK beat muguruza!...well done Daria you deserved to win!
Finally Daria! Vintage Kasatkina.
Даша,молодец! Congratulations
Love you, Daria! ❤️
Keep up the good work Daria, congratulations

@@TimofeyZelenov It's not as important, but it's still pretty damn important.
Good battle.
I just can’t help feeling that Mugu does not really mind loosing this match….
Agree, she hits well but was lazy with effort and not moving on the court.
Not really, this two always have very very tight matches. their h2h is at two all and all their matches went to 3 sets. Muguruza is a power player but she does not seem to be able to overpower Daria Kasatkina. She is kind of slow
That attitude has made her spend more than two years without big titles... better for her not come back to this.
I think Garbine had a solid 2021 season. Infact, she won the 2021 WTA Finals which is a big title.
О-е-е... Ух! Касаткина! Касаткина!! Касаткина!!!!!!!!! Любо- дорого смотреть) И красиво как!!!
This girl has got all the skills. She needs to maintain consistency and she'll be top 10.
she was year-end #10 of 2018, then became very passive and seemly lost the touch of tennis for a few years
Consistency is the word. She is a yo-yo, either great or bad, no in between
@@scorekeepn That's the majority of the WTA. One slam wonders, merry go round world number 1s etc.
Claim that top 5 scalp, girlie! Here's to a first Grand Slam trophy for this brilliant, versatile young player, able to parry power and create magic with angles, touch, and tremendous wheels!!!
Miss Muguruza, no importa perder lo importante es ganar nuevas oportunidades, aún nos quedan muchas, usted es la mejor! De mi parte FELICIDADES
Kasatkina has ATP style forehand. Really good
I just love Dasha 🥰🤩

Mugu most frustrating player. When you think she should win she loses and when you think she will lose she wins
Definitely. I wish she were more consistent. Aside from her movement, she has the potential to be truly great. I think she gets in her head a lot and the confidence takes a dive.
Kasatkina has a very ATP-nextgen-like forehand.
It's great but the problem is sometimes it's easily overwhelmed by hard hitters. She has to know when to flatten it out more.
Nah. Her forehand is nearly exactly the same as Conchita Martinez's
Kasatkina is a running machine and wears down opponents. She seems to have more powerful forehand and more consistent backhand. I don’t think a lot of girls want to play against her.
So glad to see muguruza out
I am a Muguruza fan, but Daria played a realy great match. CONGRATZ Daria, super fight.

Very good Kasatkina
Happy for this hard working girl! She deserves a trophy.
Man Daria really needed this win. Good win for her.
I LOVED IT! Go Daria!
Dasha wow super happy for you very good.........🔥💜
So glad Daria is back to her very best. She plays with a lot of cunning, very smart.
What a difference a week makes. Kasatkina got absolutely smoked by Anisimova last week. It took a strong mind to put that behind her.
i wish kasatkina would play more aggressive new fan of her
Really different game! Interesting and will see against Badosa the solid player!!
Daría niña hermosa💕🌹 hasta la final con grandes éxitos😘😘❤🤗🙏🇩🇴
It very good......

Bravo Darya
Идёт идёт игра у Даши в этом году. Здорово готова.!!!
She is calm and plays a good strategic game I like DK
It seems Dasha put a bit more push in her shots. Or maybe because the court is a bit faster.
