for the mens side i give it CLIFF DRYS DALE. i mean he shows no favoritism, no bias give credit when credit is due…..For a long time i didn’t want to watch tennis until i discovered yahoo telecast and the BBC. Because all you hear is Maria Carriilo, McEnroe making a lop sided gestures
i dont know why these dumb gurls continue to doubt serena’s lob..if she hits a ball over my head trust and believe i’m a run back and wait for it cuz that shit is going IN everytime lol! dementiava played her ass off here tho! go serena =)
@HermitCrabGuy HAHAHA.. yeah she literally had to be waken up. Gotta love the mom! She did say that when she wears the shades she’ll most likely be snoozing away!
GREAT match Serena! only champs are brave enough to go to the net down a match point!
oh and lmao at her mom at the end… “oh what its over? das cool, bout time”
@intldawn
As regards your comparison with women tennis in the 90’s and today’s, i would like to say that there is no match in that period time in which you’ll get to women hitting so hard and getting every ball back. Serena hit about 20 aces in this match and Elena was getting the return back with something on it.
Elena really played a wonderful match, but Serena hasn’t won multiple grand slams for nothing. Cream almost always rises to the top, and Serena’s superior service game and desire to win got her through this match.
this was a great match, that point at 3:31 was insane, if she would have lost that point I think dementieva would have won, and the volley serena pulled off at match point was so gutsy….GREAT MATCH SERENA!!!
Best women’s match of 2009, hands down. So rarely do we see matches like this deep into a Grand Slam anymore from the women, but this was high-quality ball striking and fierce competing from both ladies, just like we used to see in the ’90’s.
Serena played very well indeed, but I have to say that although Elena lost she played very well ans had Serena on the ropes numerous times. Thanks for posting this!

I don’t like dementieva,just for her cold attitude at the net everytime she plays one of the sisters.
I thought this was a superb match but really long as well. However, this match has nothing on the Isner/Mahut match!
I wonder how many Slams Elena would have won if she had the mental toughness and confident of Serena. What a match this was.
By far one of the best Wimbledon matches! I love you Elena Dementieva for giving a good fierce fight against Serena!
Lol Serena!! I just love her fight!! Love it!

@danjf1 I believe it is.
Is this a Czech broadcast? Was just curious what language that was.
