One of the most emotional women's matches ever?

....interesting and irrelevant comment! Watch the video. No choking there - Serena simply destroyed her.

Jesus, this vid should come with an audio warning. Sharapova made my ears bleed, in several points she sounds like she is getting stabbed.

And the scream on a volley was hilarious.

Looking at this vid, I have to laugh at those that belive that all grunters are the same. Even the worst ATP grunter isn't half as annoying as a Shriekapova/Azarenka.

Thankfully that DeBrito chick is so low in the rankings that we don't get to see a lot of her in the later stages of important tournies.

Imagine the SF of a tourney consisting of Sharapova/Azarenka/DeBrito/some poor schmuck. You would have to hand out earplugs to all the unfortunate souls in the crowd.

Sharapova definitely took the grunting beyond over the top here. I would also say though that this is the turning point in their rivalry, and Serena was lucky to escape those 3 match points. Winning must have been so sweet.

I think Maria might get her on red clay.

It's tough because Maria embarrassed her in the first Wimbledon encounter, then edged her at the year-end finals and nearly beat her here. So, as much as she hates Maria, she does respect her game and comes out to fight every time they play.

It's kind of annoying to see everyone trash one or the other player. Doesn't anyone like them both? I think they're both great. Probably their best match along with the year-end final.
