Should be a good final. Swiatek vs Kenin.

Kvitova had a huge chance there on the last break point... Shame, I was rooting for her to win another Slam eventually.
Just let them cut down on the uppers and they won’t need any antidepressants.

Good on Kenin. Nothing I'd like to see more on the women's side than a Kenin victory on Saturday.

It is legal in the WTA

Like her or hate her, Kenin is impressive. This is a girl that lost 6-0 6-0 against Azarenka in Rome. And now she's in the RG final. Besides that, who would've thought at the beginning of the year that Kenin would make 2/3 Slam finals with the real possibility (as great Swiatek is playing, there's definitely a chance) of winning 2 out of 3? That's darn impressive.

Only supposed to be legal in WTA tournaments - not majors.
He has been fined for it during the tournament, repeatedly

Nice win, I wanted Kvi but there you go

Not at the Slams - ITF rules; not WTA rules.

Funny! Is Swiatek Jewish?

Strange that of all the savvy TTW poasters, no one picked Kenin to win the tournie.

Why is that strange? Who's going to pick someone that lost 0-6 0-6 in their last clay match before RG? So many more upsets can happen with 3 sets vs 5 anyway.

If you go back and look at the poll in the beginning of the thread Sofia Kenin is listed as 0.0 % to win. Oh we are some REAL experts here aren’t we.
Well, Rome wasn't encouraging.

Swiatek and Kenin in the finals. The new breed has arrived.
If tennis ever gets back to normal it will be interesting to see how players like Andreescu, Osaka and Bary fit in.
And every year players like Gauff are improving and moving up. Women's tennis is well set for years to come.

It's only set if you have a few, rather than quite a few, challenging for titles.
If it's spread around, plus top players falling early, it won't bring in new fans.
With both the US and French missing top players, next year (hopefully a normal schedule) will be a greater indication.
But, the signs are positive- but people said similarly when Ostapenko won a few years back.

Swiatek looks like a huge ATG in the making. Unless she get completely overwhelmed by the occasion, I expect her to steamroll in the final.

You def need players with more variety like Barty & Andreescu to keep things interesting.

Ostapenko is doing ok for the WTA, she has a Slam, won couple of smaller tournaments, played QF and SF at Wimbledon, made a final at IW, does pretty well in doubles and was in a mixed doubles Slam final. And she's younger than Barty and couple of months older than Osaka. If she'll figure out how to maintain her best game for more than 3 matches she will definitely win another slam.
On the other note Podoroska's game is really impressive, it's just a pity she had to play against a female terminator today.

She'll probably have more competition than Serena. Hopefully she won't turn into this year's Vondrusova.

Because its A N Other person.You always pick other without actually named a winner
Actually, I've picked Williams in the past.
But, I've been more successful with 'other'

Well done Kenin! Sad for Kvitova but at least she's had another solid showing here

are there prop bets on this or something?

impressive run, but no one in the history of the game has played qualifiers in the QF and SF of a major. Imagine what sort of reaction Serena would get here if she played opponents like that in a major QF and SF...

Good. she did not hold up her game at all, thus what would have been a Cinderella story is just Kvitoiva crashing and burning--again.
Moving on...
Let's hope they keep up the energy and skill which earned their place in the final.
As I've said before, the women's tour is strong--great for the entire sport.
probably not

To be blunt why not ban players' entourage/parents/coaches from the stands or just allow coaching. End this problem
you might be right that that’s the only real solution
as a fan I’d rather see players figure things out for themselves
but since daddy Kenin has repeatedly broken the rules this tournament he should be banned from the final
let Sofia play a match by herself for once

Why would you think she had the ability to win that many majors?
