Because she has had soooo many memorable ones. I think my favorite is the 2005 Australian Open Semifinals against Sharapova.

too bad Justine doesn't have any good ones.
:lol:

I can make this very easy, all of them have been so spectacular due to her strong will. Her will is the most dominant or as dominant as Tiger Woods or Mike Jordan. Please dont take this wrong but this is what was so frustrating about the outcome of the USO because we all know if anyone come come back from match point down, it is Serena's refusal to loose. I wish I could teach that one quality of hers to my daughters or even my sons, just because it looks like you are in dire straits, victory is waiting for you is you truly desire it.

My favorite comeback was the French Open, when she was playing Kim and
she came from 5-1 down to win it. I recored that one on VHS
and still look at it . Yeah you go girl

I could not think of the name of this one, but it is my favorite also. I just couldn't stop watching it and still check it out now and again. WOW!!!

I'm going to go beyond a single match, and say my favorite was her run at the Australian Open in 2007.

She was ranked somewhere in the 80s (I think), and wasn't in the best of shape, but she tore through that tournament in an amazing way. I'll never forget it. It was a testament to her drive and tenacity.

I agree. The WTA didn't know what hit them. Everyone had counted Serena out and she proved them wrong. The sign of a true Champion !!!!!!

Totally agree! Serena has several but this one was most memorable for me also.

First, when she comes back to that Miami beach in kind of retirement.
Second, when she comes back to shape (once in a decade approximately)
Third, when she comes back home early in the torunament...

The Clijsters match at the French Open was my first thought. I remember I didn't have cable and I was following the score online (figures I would have no cable but have internet) and couldn't believe I was watching her come back from 1-5 down. Her inability to accept defeat is the greatest weapon tennis has ever seen in it's entire history.

I would have to agree with the 2005 semifinal at the AO. Whenever I can, I watch that one on youtube! When she went down on one knee and clenched her fist as she screamed (I believe that she has just gotten match-point), that showed her tenacity and her will to win against all odds.

Fourth, when she comes back to prove nay-sayers wrong once again.
