@Alex W. Oh grow up, or at least tell us you’re 12 and that’ll give you a free pass. Just enjoy the bloody tennis without you’re constant frigging complaining! It’s toxic fans like you who make it worse for everybody else. And yes, I’m an Iga fan and hope she wins the Oz Open! Seriously, so damn childish.
@Alex W. Garcia was the ace leader last year, she has one of the best serves in the WTA. Garcia had eating problems and confidence problems that stopped her from building upon her 2017 season but she is going to be a factor in the WTA for a few years now because of her success in 2022.
@Plane Stuff and what did these players win last year? Apart from Rybakina who by accident won wimbledon wheras she should not have been even allowed to participate as a russiab? All of them won nothing, beause Iga took it all from them WITH AN ABSOLUTE EASE 😃
So much more positive play and spirit from Garcia, and good that she can start the year with good wins. These were the matches she continuously lost the past few seasons. It's not about playing perfect, but about having that confidence to know you can pull out a tough match.
katherina always bringst the heat against the top players most times she comes short by very little .. but as a player i enjoy watching her her game is electric she comes up with unreal shots sometimes and very complete maybe some improovement on serve is needed but great player to watch more interesting than some in the top 10 for me 👏👏
She's world No.1 in doubles for a long time already. I really hope she would get great results in singles this year. With that level of play, she could win WTA 250 title event anytime.
This is a pretty big win for Garcia, playing the #1 doubles player in the world, in the first round of her first tournament of the year, as the highest seed. The more she wins under this kind of pressure, the better she'll be equipped for Slam glory.
I wish Sweet Caroline had won this in two, or in three with her two sets easy wins. Either way, congrats, Caroline! Sorry to Katerina, but maybe you'll do better at the AO, even if in doubles.
@Dan Terapis Yep,I actually thought she would win the USO with the way she had been dismantling the opponents till the semis,then all of a sudden she lost in straight sets,she needs to stay composed when things are not going her way, that'll be a big test for her
Belle victoire, match serré...par contre cette manière de dire «come on» est énervante... pas fair play pour l'adversaire... et faudrait changer cette célébration... elle a fait son temps...
Looks like Garcia is still at it with that crowd-the-service line on the second serve return. And it so often does not work because she does not follow-through by going to the net. Instead she stays back and leaves a wide open court for her opponent.
Garcia is a very great player. But if she IS beatean by shinova 6/3 and win by 7/5. She IS dont ready for a Big chelem .she IS getting top 5 ,top 10 ,yes Big slam ,no.
Am I the only one who hates that new Pro Staff v14 color? It looks like someone threw up or took a dump on the racquet. The glossy black paint job Siniakova had before was way nicer.
She can beat Iga(she was the only one to do it on clay last year), she just needs to stick to the game plan instead of backing off if Iga starts hitting winners like she did in the WTA finals.
Really pulling for Caroline to have a great 2023. Nice hard fought win today!
Me too!!!!!
Wouldn’t it be wonderful if she won the Australian open or any grandslam this year? I feel like she’s so close.

If she can win Adelaide she has a good shot at winning the Australian Open.
@Alex W. "Her serve is too weak." Yeah, she only served 14 aces in the match. So weak. 🙄
@Plane Stuff and what did these players win last year? Apart from Rybakina who by accident won wimbledon wheras she should not have been even allowed to participate as a russiab? All of them won nothing, beause Iga took it all from them WITH AN ABSOLUTE EASE 😃
One thing I love about Katerinais that she is not one of those players that you will defeat easily. She is a fighter.
I agree

I agree
Love both of these women - very strong, competitive ladies - wish them both the best!!!!
I hope Garcia win a grand slam this year….she won me over during her run last year 🔥🔥
Good challenge from Katerina. I knew she was capable of pushing it to three. Great focus from Caroline as well.
Excellent wi for Caro!! I think this might be Katka’s year in singles, she is very talented, but Garcia able to hold her form. Great match
She's world No.1 in doubles for a long time already. I really hope she would get great results in singles this year. With that level of play, she could win WTA 250 title event anytime.
i wonder where katherina was all these years i didnt hear much of her
Garcia hands down is one of my favorite players on the tour 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Come on Garcia!!! Time to win a slam
CG is always exciting to watch. Always redlining it. Live by the sword, die by the sword, as they say. Hope she has a great AO this year.
Siniakova will be a contender for Australian Open. I can see her upsetting top players
Good win for Garcia but watch out for Siniaková. Her success in doubles has really helped her in singles, as well.
Kateřina played so well
@Cosmin Ciornei And Bastas Swiden 2017
@pop pop also won Shenzen long time ago i think
@SirEgar WTA 250 Potoroz, Slovenia 2022
With that level of play, i think she could win at least WTA 250 title anyday. I hope she'll get her first singles title this year.
yes she did
her backhand is brutal
This is a pretty big win for Garcia, playing the #1 doubles player in the world, in the first round of her first tournament of the year, as the highest seed.
The more she wins under this kind of pressure, the better she'll be equipped for Slam glory.
siniako is always a tough opponent..well done, caroline.. good luck
I wish Sweet Caroline had won this in two, or in three with her two sets easy wins.
Either way, congrats, Caroline!
Sorry to Katerina, but maybe you'll do better at the AO, even if in doubles.
C'est solide tout ça, Bravo Caroline ! 😄
I really happy if Caroline Garcia can win any of Grand Slam this year 2023 😍
@Dan Terapis Yep,I actually thought she would win the USO with the way she had been dismantling the opponents till the semis,then all of a sudden she lost in straight sets,she needs to stay composed when things are not going her way, that'll be a big test for her
@Plane Stuff Yeah, like last year she won 3 title from 3 different surfaces and WTA final in Texas 😍
She'll, either AO or USO, she's not bad on Clay too
3:32 Best shot!
it continues to send cannonballs in 2023 / ça envoie toujours en 2023 et ce retour à 5/6 au 3e... 💪
Belle victoire, match serré...par contre cette manière de dire «come on» est énervante... pas fair play pour l'adversaire... et faudrait changer cette célébration... elle a fait son temps...
Uuulala, to będzie dobry sezon

Vamos García sigue así hasta el final
All top seeds in QFs wtf is that? Today it's hard to happen in ATP imagine in WTA ahahaha
I love when Caroline swears in French
The gorgeous brunette against the gorgeous blonde 😘😍💕
Caroline using the new vcore colours ❤
What a Dog Fight! Great Match!
Garcia return Unreal!!
Katerina, next time you'll get her. Stay focused and stay offensive, just like in the second set. You can do it !!!
High quality game
Garcia flies again. Katerina put up a great fight.
💪💪💪
Good match.
Caroline Ball hitting is efficient and with bad intentions.
Zero pusher mentality.
Insoportable García, por qué grita tanto?
Igual, eso no quita que me encante como juega y que la prefiera antes que a otras
Why did she said “come on!”, dites “allez!”.
Omg! The umpire‘s speech impediment while pronouncing ”Garcia“ makes this impossible to watch! :-(
Garcia is a very great player. But if she IS beatean by shinova 6/3 and win by 7/5. She IS dont ready for a Big chelem .she IS getting top 5 ,top 10 ,yes Big slam ,no.
Caroline !

woman's tennis * eyeroll*
@WTA How disappointing that after adding the round number to titles you now revert back to none. You're really bad at almost everything you know
Allez!
💐🌹
👉🏼Both are is very strong top fight each other 🤔
Very super match
1:41
can coach now?
Bencic will do her in the next round
Bencic has been playing well lately but I don’t think she can handle Garcia yet.
On or off the court? 😅
This won't happen with iga!!..Be careful
@Weston Meyer That's what iam saying..No plan .simply hitting hard, moving towards the net..
She can beat Iga(she was the only one to do it on clay last year), she just needs to stick to the game plan instead of backing off if Iga starts hitting winners like she did in the WTA finals.
