Why was the 1 seed playing the 3 seed in the semi finals?

French crowd not being discreet with their dislike toward the William sisters. the applause pretty much say it all...

This match point was almost identical to the one at the 2008 usopen final

Players seemed so much more professional back then... now everyone look like college players with the exception of a smallll few. Its like serena gets criticized for wanting to win now

Capriati was a really good player, but no matter how many times I watch her I cannot get over how terrible her footwork was. Always so off balance after every stroke, particularly with the backhand.

This was an amazing match which still looks like a power fest even today. Serena in 2002, or Serena in about 2015? Which Serena was better? Her movement was much better in 2002, that's easy. Her serve better in 2015, although it was a huge weapon even back then. In 2002 she was even more aggressive from the baseline than now, but she made more unforced errors. I'd narrowly go with Serena in 2002.

The quality of this video is terrible. You can barely see the ball :-(

Capriati during that time had the same power. It was power against power, which I love them both. It was always a pleasure with these two, when Jennifer came back she had bulked up as well, never understood and understand now why they give Serena such a rough time You work on your body you earn it both beautiful woman here.

Capriati was a great rival for Serena because Serena lacked experience. But when she gained more...she tore Capriati up for some years. That was until umpires and shit starting cheating Venus and Serena like crazy. Don't start with the "oh everything isn't racist or they weren't cheated" bullshit. They BOTH were cheated. Venus was cheated horribly at Wimby 2004 when a damn umpire took an entire point from her during a tiebreak causing her to lose the match. Don't even get me started on how officials and players started cheating Serena. The truth is that tennis was afraid of the sisters dominating like they did in 2002-2003, so officials and players were ALLOWED to cheat them without consequence. I lost all respect for playrs like Henin and Capriati who both didn't have enough integrity to not cheat Serena personally (Henin) and not benefit from an official cheating your opponent (Capriati). I'm glad both of them ended their careers on negative notes. Henin had no respect from her peers and even had to admit in an interview that she did willingly cheat Serena and Capriati never won a match after she didn't speak up in 2004 when the official basically handed her the match against Serena. Karma served them well. AND Serena was the player who sent Justine's disgusting self back into retirement denying her another slam.

All the bias racism hatred thrown at Serena has fueled her will to be the champion that she has become

It's still absolutely incredible to think that in this match we were witnessing Serena finally finding the solution to that nagging inability to close out big matches. She said it so simply that she was "just tired of losing...life was passing me by" She wasn't tired, she was PISSED! Jesus that power....and she's beaten the shit out of everybody from this match to when she took a break to have her child a year or so ago. That is dominance.

haha , so , serena was said technicless ?!! today , maybe but then , when tennis was his main purpose , i don't think so !!

Capriati always tobe great rivals for Serena..Serena must extra work againts her..look at the Capriati point in 13:28..Serena really really strugling so hard..Capriati vs Serena always had great match...from so many h2h between the twos are so many often with rubber set....Serena always playing so hard and super extra balls againts Caprati ..bouth of them beating each other with so many rubber in their match

Love 10:44 Serena was brutal!

Congats to Serena! Her and Capriati always had great matches, one of my favorite rivalries.

For two people who allegedly couldn't stand each other, they always had pretty respectful handshakes.

I remember all too well how Serena's inexperience at closing out her matches vs players like Capriati cost her big wins early in her career. Like everyone who, hopefully, learns from their mistakes (& in the case of athletes) & their loses, Serena's game matured. I believe early in their rivalry, Jennifer won 3 or 4 str8 tough matches vs Serena that I thought Serena could've & maybe should've won. But her inexperience showed. This was one of those tight matches Serena pulled out & she then later won 5 or 6 str8 matches vs Jennifer. There are many things I love about Serena Williams & her tennis career. One of those things I love is Serena has had a few great rivalries. Martina Hingis, Lindsay Davenport, Amelie Mauresmo, Kim Clijsters, Justine Henin, Venus, Jennifer Capriati, Elena Dementieva, Jelena Jankovic, Maria Sharapova, Victoria Azarenka & now this new crop of good tennis players have all had entertaining, competitive matches & rivalries vs Serena Williams. Part of the reason is because they all were/are great players & the other part is Serena Williams. She is & has been so amazing & so great for women's tennis & tennis, period. Whether her critics & haters want to give her credit now doesn't matter. They will. They are. Because even if they root against her, they're still rooting for women's tennis & in essence, they're rooting for Serena Williams whether they know it or not & whether they want to now or not.

your forgetting capriati and myskina

oh excuses excuses

Poor Lindsay...but its her own fault for her fragile mind on court!

are you dreaming?. serena was ten times faster in 2001.

Yeah sure

Justine is the most formidable female tennis player i've ever had the privilege to see. she's truly a mini-federer. a player like her only happens once in a million times. Technically she's easily one of the greatest ever.

and 7/5 6/3 ahahahah

the camera view is really strange

You've got a point. As a matter of fact Serena's mentioned this guy's comment on Elle's show, and said exactly that: that she has used it as motivation! You know what we could do? We could go there every slam final or semifinal and scream "Come on (whoever), she's not that good!!!!" hahahaha :-D

This match right here is a prime example of why the Williams sisters were simply better than Capriati. They were mentally stronger. Capriati broke Serena 3 times in the first set, and had a chance to serve it out. Serena broke back each time, and won the set. Capriati had 2 chances to serve out the second set. Serena broke back each time, and saved 7 set points. A year earlier against Venus, she served for the match twice, and had 8 MPs. Venus broke back each time, and eventually won.

Nah, let them seethe. Serena uses it as motivation and keeps piling up more slams.

At 13:51 "Come on Justine, she's not that good!" Big LOL. "She" did win that match. "She" has 17 Grand Slam titles, including all surfaces. "She" is 8-6 head-to-head vs Justine. Some people should have their tongue cut out. hahahaha :-D

8-6 h2h &17 slams & counting while useless Henin is rotting in the gallows ahahaha ;)

At 4:20 is there anything the umpire could have said to not get booed?

This match just proves that, aside from Venus, Henin was Serena's only real rival.

Venus did usually play Justine during V's period of dominance, 2000-3. I think if they'd played more in 2005-7 it may have been a different story, as the 2007 US Open match shows.

These two have had some very interesting matches, but they've always been filled with power and winners

I believe it started after their Wimbledon 2001 match where Capriati accused Serena of gamemanship due to her illness, and said that there's always "something going on with her" when they play.

What did Mary Carillo say about Serena's sister?

exactly,justine had more variety...serena just hits the ball hard

Can anyone inform me as to why exactly Serena & Jennifer detested one another? Was it a war of words? Or what? Their matches have always been hotly contested & supremely intense...

Yes, it seems like they are using the ball to kill each other, instead of playing tennis. The rivalry was very intense and I love it.

Serena is a far better match player than Henin.

Mary Jo was getting excited when serena was getting beat. But she quiet down when she up her game. Can you say bias

Serena bageled her.

There are many cases for Serena as GOAT but THANK YOU CHRIS FOWLER FOR THAT LAST STATISTIC S.Williams better winning % at Slam Finals than.... S.Graff R.Federer C.Evert M.Navratilova Oh not to mention 100% in doubles finals (13/13)

Serena and Capriati always make women's tennis look like men's

did hingis not hit a single winner here or did i miss it??

Everybody's entitled to their opinions, but Justin henin never dominated the tennis whereas serena williams dominated tennis (women) in the last decade. that despite her fitness, illness and family problems. To those who says Henin is more technical you just stating your opinions rather than facts. Henin has sublime backhand, serena has sublime forehand, they're both good a drop shots although serena decreasingly use of that. they both good at spinning the ball, or changing the pace.

Serena showed the talent and the grit of a true champion when she was very very young.

Makes non sense. She recently started a family & concentrates on charity event for kids and her tennis school - A recent comment from her former coach Carlos Rodriguez.

And Serena was injured for much of '07!

exaggeration abit there
