1. Agnieszka Radwanska vs Dominika Cibulkova, Wimbledon 2016

Obviously have to start the thread with Aga the legend! Insane rallies and fantastic resilience from both. Best match of 2016. https://youtu.be/m2NQGSAgWkQ ">https://youtu.be/m2NQGSAgW...

2. Naomi Osaka vs Karolina Pliskova, Brisbane 2020

Probably the best match of 2020 for now (and could be for the rest of the year, with the rest of the season in doubt

3. Angelique Kerber vs Hsieh Su-Wei, Australian Open 2018

AO 2018 was one of the best Slams ever in terms of how many high-quality matches were produced. Kerber and Hsieh brought out the best in each other’s games to produce a wacky and exciting match. https://youtu.be/-ciccDiN8Sc ">https://youtu.be/-ciccDiN8...

4. Elina Svitolina vs Ashleigh Barty, Indian Wells 2019

Last year’s edition of Indian Wells was another fantastic tournament full of great matches. Again, another match full of long-busting rallies, with Svitolina’s physicality coming through. https://youtu.be/--GiHQi8Llo ">https://youtu.be/--GiHQi8L...

5. Jelena Ostapenko vs Karolina Pliskova, Beijing 2019

Ostapenko hit 25 double faults and still beat World No.2 Pliskova. Penko is hilarious

6. Angelique Kerber vs Agnieszka Radwanska, Stanford 2015

So many fun rallies, so many good points, so much variety from two of the best counter-punchers in the game. https://youtu.be/r8SbtrH9sO0 ">https://youtu.be/r8SbtrH9s...

7. Eugenie Bouchard vs Maria Sharapova, Madrid 2017

Iconic match. Just days after Bouchard called Sharapova a ‘cheater’, they met in Madrid, with Bouchard playing her best tennis in a long time. She hasn’t come close at all to playing at that level since. https://youtu.be/MsF_TE7-YhQ ">https://youtu.be/MsF_TE7-Y...

8. Ana Ivanovic vs Maria Sharapova, Cincinnati 2014

“check her blood pressure”

https://youtu.be/ZE9D7YHSS4Q ">https://youtu.be/ZE9D7YHSS...

9. Maria Sharapova vs Serena Williams, Wimbledon 2004

Since the last two matches were Sharapova defeats, I should include the match where Sharapova announced her name in the tennis world. Supreme level from Maria in this one.

10. Serena Williams vs Caroline Wozniacki, WTA Finals 2014

Probably the most aggressive I’ve ever seen Wozniacki play. Vintage Serena in this one where she won the more important points.

11. Angelique Kerber vs Maria Sharapova, Stuttgart 2015

Stuttgart is always one of the best tournaments of the year so it’s a pity it won’t be held in 2020. Kerber and Sharapova’s games matched each other well for a fantastic baseline battle on the clay.

https://youtu.be/yZhQQszTx-g ">https://youtu.be/yZhQQszTx...

12. Katerina Siniakova vs Sofia Kenin, Fed Cup 2018

The highlights aren’t in great quality but the match certainly was, in a three-hour and 45 minute thriller. Siniakova saved 2 MPs to secure the FC trophy for the Czech Republic.

13. Naomi Osaka vs Petra Kvitova, Australian Open 2019

Ridiculously amazing composure from Osaka to recover from a second set meltdown. Fantastic Grand Slam final.

14. Maria Sharapova vs Simona Halep, Roland Garros 2014

Definitely one of the best Grand Slam finals. Pure grit and determination from both players in a fantastic baseline battle. Little did we know this would be Sharapova’s final Slam title...

https://youtu.be/0wVlZ44jB6I ">https://youtu.be/0wVlZ44jB...

15. Angelique Kerber vs Serena Williams, Cincinnati 2012

Kerber’s first win against Serena; no one at that time would have guessed that Angie would go on to get two more wins against Serena in Slam finals...

16. Jelena Ostapenko vs Maria Sharapova, Rome 2018

Quite the underrated match from 2018. Fantastic investment from both players, resulting in a brutal baseline battle on the clay.

https://youtu.be/gEKy701nqvg ">https://youtu.be/gEKy701nq...

17. Simona Halep vs Jelena Jankovic, Indian Wells 2015

What a hot mess. Jankovic should have won this match but she produced an almighty choke; no one was playing well at all but it was so dramatic and exhausting till the end. Classic WTA goodness.
