Elena's winning a lot of fans with her calm and quiet but deadly game.

What a graceful and dignified player is Rybakina. I like not only her game also her court behaviour during and after the match. One of the most versatile and dignified players I have ever seen.

Iga has all the talent and determination to level up against Rybakina's play. It's her team's duty to find the way. 💪

what's remarkable is that Rybakina didn't even look like she had to push herself too hard or get too far out of her comfort zone to beat Iga. she pretty much just blew Iga off the court without any fanfare, grunting, shrieking, and all the other nonsense that many WTA players do to pump themselves up

The scary thing is Rybakina has considerable room for improvement

Elena keeps her composure whether she leads or not in the game. This is how she wins. She has developed nerves of steel and she is a force to be reckoned with.

Absolutely love Elena's zen-like mental state. Add to that, her refusal to play to the gallery - she remains a true-blue introvert who lets her racquet do the talking - hats off! A win against Iga is icing on the cake

Elena the face of an angel the tennis of an assassin ❤

I loveee Rybakina’s style of play it’s so mathematical and composed. You can tell she’s thinking through each point knowing exactly where she wants to place every ball.

I watched this match and Iga Swiatek looked like a junior tennis player in comparison, incredible outcome.

Elena was top class today. Calm, compose and utterly focused what land her in winning side. Expectation from her now so high 😊

This is PURE UNADULTERATED TENNIS, folks! no drama, no beaking off, no pouting, no screamgrunting, just pure mental/physical EXCELLENCE for rybakina!! a TREAT to watch!!

Iga got a taste of her own medicine. She was absolutely helpless. Elena is playing some incredible tennis right now. I hope she wins the whole thing.

She hits the ball like like there’s no tomorrow. she’s insane

Elena just treats the victory on the number one in a semi final like another walk in the park, ice cold, well deserved!!!

She’s the Kryptonite to Swiantek. Straight sets win again. Looking forward to the repeat of the Australian Open 😊

Elena showed Iga who's the boss for the second time and I have no doubt she will do it again and again.

Elena is just amazing! She reminds me of Federer - calm, elegant, beautiful game and technique, and the feeling that all this is very easy for her!

I am so proud of Elena. I have been watching her for about 4 years now. I love watching her play. Graceful and elegant. No screaming, no drama. Just her racquet talking.

So elated w/the outcome of the match! Iga looked less than ordinary, lost, and confused. Thx Elena for your outstanding performance 👏 ❤️

No screams, no drama, no politics, just cross court winners from Rybakina, this is the type of tennis I wanna watch

Elena was not playing NO GAMES! Really love watching her play. She hits such a crisp ball and her focus is A1!

Exceptional play by Rybakina against an exceptional player! Women’s tour in great shape right now.

Rybakina's serve and return are just too powerful for Swaitek to handle. Rybakina game really exposes the lack of variety in Swaiteks game.

The only path to beat Swiatek is getting more and more clear. She is vulnerable against a strong and acurate server. She can't engage her retruns in a proper way. Consequence: she feels a lot pressure on her own serve and she has problems to handle it.

Rybakina studied Iga's quick movements and anticipation of the ball well enough to use it against her. It's all about getting the right angles when playing Iga. Iga can really be helpless and all that foot work can be flawed. Congrats to both, a great match to watch.

Rybakina is my favourite player now - and has been since that magic Wimbledon run. If you notice, she's even wearing green emerald ear-rings for St Patrick's Day - and as an Irishman, I appreciate that. She's also beautiful, but that's another story which must not take away from her grace on court. Many players could learn from her, and I don't just mean about playing tennis.

Love Elena! My favorite player! Her style and grace is unmatched! That look she gave her coach in a previous game was so funny!

Elena is one of the quiet tennis players. Beautiful shots and good movement!

Iga will have to practice that down the line return, Elena was reading her game with ease.

Elena is so calm and elegant...she has no drama, no shouts no mourns 😂.....she is classy....I am so happy she won this

Elena is my favorite player now. what a style and power with great composure. I wish we got players like her few years ago.

Rybakina's game is such a throwback to the early to mid 2000s golden era of tennis. She reminds me of the Serena, Capriati, Venus, Clijstrers, Davenport, Hingis, Seles etc. era.

I always knew the current generation of women tennis had potential to be great and consistent. And exactly players like Rybakina, Sabalenka and Krejcikova make the women tennis more exciting! Yeah, although the lost, Iga is still a great player, but she needs competition! That's great not only for us, as fans, but also for her, as player, because she would work to improve it. And i think Elena Rybakina could be her biggest kryptonite for long years... She has the playing style and mentality to be champion for long years!

Поболеем в финале за наших девочек🎉!!

Iga got the taste of her own medicine. What a clinical performance from Rybka. She is definitely hitting her stride towards the peak of tennis. Well done

Rybakina’s composure in these big matches…she doesn’t lose focus often and that’s what will help her win more slams

Rybakina bardzo skromna osoba, zarazem elegancka i inteligentna no i nie krzyczy w niebogłosy na korcie itd. zycze jej zwyciestwa w tym turnieju

She and Barbora are my fav. Solid tennis, no grunts and no dramas. 😊

So unfortunate that the crowd showed how onesided they are and did not recognise and applaud the brilliant display of power tennis by Elena. Keep doing what you are doing Elena. You will be number one soon. Hope you get this win over Aryna. You deserve it.

Great match. Elena shows her how matured she has become . She will be one of the top players in this new generation of players. I have been following her for the last two years because I saw her raw talent and now she is confident of her abilities. Too bad for the rest of the field including Sabalenka. She shows the ferocity of Sharapova but the calmness of Stefi Graf and of course the power of the Williams sisters. She will be multi grandslam soon as long as her health keeps up. I predict that she will be the next one to win on all different courts. She will continue to dominate Iga just like Serena did over Maria. Sorry Iga I backed you when you won your first grandslam but now there is a new superhero .

Elena with all the certainty in the world, is Iga's kryptonite. Incomparable and impeccable.

I was fortunate enough to see Elena play in Toronto's WTA 1000 event last year, and even though she lost to Gauff in that match (Gauff had the defensive match of her life), I was blown away by the fluidity of her strokes and how effortless the power is she can generate on both the back- and forehand wing. At the time her foot speed was her achilles heel around the court, but in the off season she seemed to improve this aspect of her game, as she's getting to a lot more balls out wide, fully balanced, resulting in, a higher percentage of hard driven balls being administered to her opponents. It is devastating; most women, save for Sabalenka, cannot handle the barrage of pace Elena can now bring to a match. If she remains healthy, I would not be surprised if Elena (or Sabalenka, to be fair) were #1 by the end of the year.

Elena is so many immaculate and flawless. She has a huge dominance and wide mastery against the adversaries. She roundly dictates the games with her potent forehand strikes, subduing the players in the critical positions. Moreover, the rocket serves are always the largest weapon of Elena Rybakina to maintain her preeminence. Undoubtedly a magical game from Rybakina!

To me, Elena is playing better than she was at the Australian. I hope she gets the victory tomorrow. Hats off to her. She has worked so hard to get to this point.

What a show! I am fan of Rybakina and Qinwen Zheng! Also, what a final that will be, Aryna vs Elena! Insane final was in AO.

Yes Elena so happy you won, my fav female tennis player on tour right now since AO... humble and a phenomenal player

Лена, спасибо ! Уж слишком много о себе она возомнила в последнее время, поверила в свою непобедимость, в то, что может указывать Российским игрокам чуть ли не как им в туалет ходить)

Elena is IGA's Achilles heel! Wow what a performance.

I wish Elena the overall victory!!!❤

hats off to the spirit of iga... she gets there not to be sour and to cry. But to compete and to be happy and to be part of the tennis happy atmosphere. She is part of what we all aspire as tennis player. To challenge opponents to play and be fair. But beat them within that fairness. Love her too!

She's become my favorite player. Such elegance, resilience, professionalism!!

Well done Elena. She's fast becoming my favourite tennis player

I was hoping for Iga to win but Elena was just relentless, merciless and precise ❄️ I hope Iga learn to play better against Rybakina so this rivalry turn into something fun and exciting 🔥

It's not a mental block that's preventing Iga from playing well against Rybakina. It's the powerful, flat balls from Rybakina which doesn't give Swiatek enough time to set up her shots. Iga likes slow, spinny balls like Gauff's, and only Rybakina in the WTA gives her consistent, powerful flat balls from both forehand and backhand. That, combined with Rybakina's serve which i think is the best in the WTA, is just too much for Iga to handle.

Rybakina! What a game against world N1. She have never played at this level with rare mistakes. Impressive 👏 would like to see more this kind of play

Iga is quick and her speed around the court and tempo bothers most players but Rybakina is just a level better. He big serve and massive cleans strokes from the back just have IGA playing defense. Best of all Rybakina is a class act, a breath of fresh air, so elegant and humble in the way she plays the game and also carries herself around the court. A true professional. With this game and attitude, she is going to win a lot 😊

Отличное начало дня! Казахстан с победой! Место в финале наше, благодаря великолепной игре Елены, просто фантастика!

Rybakina's footwork, art.

Elena has won me over a long time ago. I’m a huge fan of her and will be rooting for her all the way. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

She is making No.1 looks like some qualifier! Amazing Rybakina!

Tremenda paliza de Ribakina!! Ahora toca final de sacadoras; aunque las dos han mejorado mucho en el peloteo! Bravo Elena!!

Elena plays amazing and incredible tennis. so good. congrats Elena you deserved to win

If Rybakina can beat Sabalenka now she is going to have limitless confidence for years.

Not sure why Iga did not fight harder.... seems she was too surprised with how clean and precise Elena played...

Love it!!iga was crushing everyone..glad to see someone matching and surpassing her speed among many other things!!Elena❤ its like iga had no fight left...nothing was working...crushed!

Rybakina made swiatek look like an amateur. What a match. She is definitely Swiatek’s kryptonite.

Elena has been Iga's kryptonite this year.

Elena y Aryna what a dream final! Вперёд девчонки!❤️

Elena continues her rampage, love seeing her topple Swiatek with such ease! What a champion! But why in these tournaments now there are so many empty seats?! If you cant fill them, then at least give them to a local school or something!

Elena is the real deal! Swiatek couldn’t read her strokes and where to go. Very interested to see the final again against Sabalenka. Wimbledon 🏆 AO runner up🏅 she is definitely top 3 and can become no. 1 if she can keep this level for the rest of this year. She is so resilient. With a bit more flavors in her game plan nobody can come near her in the future. I think I have become her supporter now 😊

Needless to say, I wasn't expecting such a clinical dispatch of the best WTA player on tour right now, is she tired or something? Or is Elena just wayyyyy too good? I can't tell but congrats to both ladies anyway and rooting for Elena to go all the way!

Go Rybakina go...one of my favorite WTA players. So low key yet so good!

What a dominant play by Rybakina.

this is going to be very interesting year in women's tennis! congratulations to the winner, hugs for the looser, sport is very difficult job, I can't even imagine to be putted on such a display every week at my job, so huge respect from my side!

Its not easy to send Iga home with a 2 & 2, yikes. The silent assassin has struck again. Was she wearing back magnets a few days ago? I thought she got a huge tattoo on her back but its gone. Iga seems like the kind of person of when she loses, she goes home and practices for 4 hrs. Elena just seems so calm.

Elena's cross-court forehead was especially deadly, sometimes stunning Iga, and Iga had no answer for it. WTG, Elena!

Probably the coolest player on the tour...nothing seems to distract her

Молодец, Лена. Уверенная победа над первой ракеткой. В финале если соберётся, победит. 🇰🇿🇰🇿🇰🇿

Удачи в финале 🥇🏆🏆🏆🎈🌺🌺🌺🙋‍♀️

Какая красотка Елена! Поздравляю с выходом в финал!

Просто умничка,больше нечего сказать

I really don’t know why more people didn’t expect Rybakina to win this.

Well deserved victory, good luck for the final, and wish you all the best for your future. ❤

Elena really be putting the brakes on Iga and I'm so proud of her for that....

Bravo!!! Ya era hora q cambie el guión d los últimos partidos. Ojalá q siga con su sencillez, con su tranquilidad y que siga mejorando su juego.

I thought that her backhand was her strength but now obviously, she destroyed Iga with those powerfull yet very accurate forehands.

Elena, like Barbora, is one of the few players that Iga struggles terribly with. They are nightmares to her

Elena: Supermodel physique, ice queen emotions on court, and a forehand cross court shot as powerful as Thors hammer! Love her n her game! Absolute assassin when shes on form! Final is gonna be a classic!😳

Classy person she seems. Definitely going for world number 1 soon .

A rock solid outing by the Ice Queen making it look easy🔥 Dictating play with power and placement, having Iga on defensive mode throughout the match - not an easy feat outpacing Iga. Elena also displaying superb approaching slice shots. Well done 👏 Her Final mission: Ousting Shriekalenka in the same stoic/silent fashion.

The contrast in the final with the loud and fiery Sabalenka will be very interesting. Both absolute beasts but their personalities on court are so different!

I am so pleased it's a swiatek free final and that rybakina showed her who's the real boss.

Swiatek's heavy high bouncing top spin doesn't bother Rybakina because she's 6 feet tall! The ball bounces right at her strike zone!

Coming soon to be new No.1 Elena Rybakina. Amazing technique. Great attitude. Love her

Прекрасная игра, поздравляю!

I really enjoy watching Elena play. She can cover a lot of ground with her long legs. Her serves are also a strong point. I totally loved her win over IGA. No big fist pumps.VERY HUMBLE WINNER

Молодец❤ Умница, красавица, Спортсменка💪👋👋👋🤲

Just an absolutely magnificent match from Rybakina. Should be a great final, I think Rybakina and Sabalenka are the two best players in the world right now.

Ну и кто кого вынес из корта? Елена Молодчина, поздравляю, желаю ей ещё хороших побед.
