She peaked at the US Open and was mentally stronger than the rest of the field. More experienced players underestimated her. She didn't play anyone in the top 10. Older players will not be making the same mistake again. This is a tale as old as time in women's tennis. You peak, win a slam, your game is then studied, your weaknesses attacked, you lose. Again and again. Emma is not the first and certainly not the last to experience this. She has been hyped up beyond reason but will need time to adjust to the tour. I hope she figures it out quickly bc these girls will fight hard for a slam champions scalp.

Rybakinas level was jaw dropping! A clean and effortless ballstriker. At the same time Raducanus shots didn't have enough bite to cause any problems. And she was often caught behind the baseline while facing great length from her opponent. And when she could step inside the baseline her shots were weak and Rybakina count counterstrike and Raducanu was too far infront. It led to the powerless shots and it was easy for Rybakina to dictate the rallies. Emma's serving and returning was badly excecuted as well. She was constantly on defense.

well yeah, she would be unstoppable if she could defy physics...but the aspects of her build that prevent her from being at the elite tier of flexiblity and agility are also the aspects that give her great striking power for her serve and ground strokes.

Rybakina vs Osaka! two hard hitters and composed!! Would be a great match!!!

I've always thought that winning a GS wasn't normal for Raducanu (even though I loved her performance throughout the US Open), but to me, she doesn't have yet what it takes to be a GS winner, her lack of power was really obvious against a player like Rybakina who hits the ball so well/strong. Losing 6-0,6-1 sounds really nasty for a GS winner. Raducanu might be a fluke, and the most difficult for her is to prove us wrong by winning another GS against the very top players (which wasn't really the case in NY.)

Emma's gone from the hunter to the hunted, and at such a young age, too. Her grand slam win was amazing, but it will hinder her progress as a tennis player.

We Brits don't even like her anymore. She said it was "a joke" that the public think she should be doing better than she is. That bad attitude and the showiness of her in every advert everywhere when she's shit, has turned most of us off her. Also, she isn't even British. Her favourite players are Halep and Na because she considers herself Romanian and Chinese not British. And she was born in Canada like Greg Rusedski - another plastic Brit.

Now that's a wake up call for Emma. This will leave some damage. Compliments for Elena, hope she has more of these top days.

It’s her first match on tour so was always gonna be tough. Last year she was beaten by Zhang 6-3 6-2 after a month out from Wimbledon and then beat her at the US Open 6-2 6-4 a month later with matches under her belt, a lot can change.

Ema should have been at the Melbourne tournament last week where majority of the girls were outside top 30. Rankings can’t make up for experience. What she did at US Open was spectacular but jumping 127 rankings points after 1 tournament gave her a rankings that her skillset and experience can’t support. Her ppl should prioritize matches over big events against top players. She plays like a player ranked top 50 at best. And that’s ok. She’s still new. She shouldn’t be expected to complete with the #13 whose been playing for years. She and her team need to be real about where she is and forget about rankings or expectations and figure out a realistic strategy bc all the first round loses aren’t going to cut it. Congrats to Rybakina.

this is the most sensible comment i have read so far..i agree 100 percent..tone down the hype and concentrate on gaining experience

Rybakina and Australia just go so well together! I knew Emma was in for a tough match - she didn’t have an answer for Rybakina today. Though, I don’t think many players would have.

Raducanu: "Come on!!" Rybakina: "Understandable, I'll give you one game"

Rybakina almost feels apologetic after winning points. She is one of her kind.

I feel like Raducanu has been hyped.

I am here after rybakina's win Wimbledon

Raducanu's game was all over the place today (her service game in particular was so nervy), but not at all surprising given that it's her first match of 2022, after what was a disrupted pre-season too due to Covid. That will be the first time she'll have faced power like that too, with Rybakina pummeling serves at 120mph & with a 1st serve percentage of 77%. She has started the year in blistering form too, and can see her in the top 10 by Spring. People really need to reign in their expectations with Raducanu. Winning a WTA250, perhaps a few WTA250 or 500 QF appearances, combined with reaching round 4 at Wimbledon & the US Open would IMO be a good year for her. So much for her to experience in her 1st full year on tour. Never played a WTA match on clay. People need to chill, let her learn. If somehow she's around the top 50 after losing her US Open ranking points by December, I think that will set her up nicely for 2023.

Rybakina getting stronger this season

MY GOD SUPER CALM ...INCREDIBLE TALENT 👏👏👏...

I saw Rybakina at Ostrava Open last year (vs Świątek). Elena is a solid player!

Rybakina was just on another level. Total powerhouse of talent, precision and strength. She just didn’t let even a single short ball from Emma go for a waste and slammed them all. She commanded the game right from the beginning. As for Emma - She needs to develop her core game, she needs to build more strength, generate more power and by doing so threaten her opponent in rallies. I feel her shots lacked the sting, and even when she lost the first set she didn’t try and change her tactics.

Dear WTA. We don’t need the slow motion replays and long zoom ins and bouncing in the highlights. Just points. More points less fluff

Raducanu is in a truly weird position as a “newbie” on the women’s tour-a position that no other player in the Open Era has ever occupied, to my knowledge. She appeared virtually out of nowhere, with minimal pro experience and a negligible ranking, to manage the unthinkable: peaking wildly to win the (arguably) biggest title on the planet. Immense fame, fortune, and expectation have followed swiftly and understandably. Yet her “everyday” game is clearly not yet up to the regular standard of the tour. It doesn’t make sense to most casual observers, but to informed tennis fans, it ought to make sense. The stars aligned for her in a most unusual way at the US Open and she took admirable advantage of a good draw and her own fired-up talents to win the whole thing within that three-week context (remember, she won coming from qualification rounds!). It’s as if the cart has been put before the horse, in career terms, for Emma. It is little wonder that Raducanu still seems a bit shell-shocked, given her actual inexperience and the astonishing way her life changed overnight. She will need a year, I think, for her “longterm game” to catch up with her highly unexpected and once-in-a-lifetime display of brilliance in New York. Hopefully, she will be given the proper time required to build her fine talent without undue pressure from tour, fans, commentators, and sponsors. Her US Open win was an almost freakish, anticipatory success-give her a healthy chance to let all things settle and then find her place on the day-in, day-out tour and she could certainly become a regular contender. She is much more gifted than this absolute obliteration by the treeing Rybakina would indicate. Plus, Emma’s going to have an extra big target on her back for quite a while. Here’s hoping she rises to the challenge because the women’s game needs a big star. Bad.

Swiatek had the same trajectory, winning a Slam at 19 but she kept improving and is now ranked #1. Raducanu has yet to do well at any tournament since the US Open. I wish she'd get a full-time coach, because she simply doesn't have the skills right now to be a top player.

Raducanu showed a very high level of tennis in the last US Open, but also in her first big torunament Wimbledon. She has the tennis, but she hasn't trained and played too much las months, so obviously she need to work hard on her tennis to come back to last year level, and go forward from there on. She is very, very young, and I think she can do it, if she really wants, she is very talented as she has proved to us. Just give her a chance...she is still a kid (do you remember yourself when you were 19 y/o?)

Raducanu by contrast is more of a finesse player, who really got a bit lucky on her run to the usopen. She still had a lot to learn and develop, let's see how far she gets.

Emma needs to forget about her win at the US Open and look to consistently improve her game to continually challenge the top players. She didn’t face a top 10 player at the US Open, and her draw was cleared by Leylah Fernandez who played three top 5 players. She has been overhyped by the British press, and been given multiple awards before even establishing her self as a serial winner in tennis. She needs to understand the drive and sacrifice that the likes of Federer, Djokovic, Serena Williams and Nadal display to improve and perform at the highest level, focus ahead and win multiple slams.

A merciless drubbing. Out-served, out-hit and outplayed

Incredible power of Elena... Incredible presicion and stoic mentality --- I am waiting the AO

Ryba has such lazy, effortless strength. Wonderful ball striking!

us open was just a lucky one in the life time for Emma, one time wonder.

Rybakina having a solid start to the year. She's primed to start getting deep into majors (she had QF @ F.O. last year) and potentially contend for them. Because of her height, serve, and big groundstrokes it's easy to draw comparisons to Sharapova or Kvitova.

I hope nobody is surprised by this performance. Elena was red hot before COVID started. It's taken her some time to get back to this level but her patience is paying off.
