Who wins the rematch of the 2023 US Open Final between World #1 and World #2?

Does Sabalenka get revenge, or does Coco roll again?

I think Saba gets her revenge. She seems so motivated after the AO loss, but Gauff is arguably a best defender on women's tour right now. I hope for an interesting final and let the better player win, I like them both.

Weird first set between these two. Saba should have finished it like 30 minutes ago, but Coco fought back and almost got it through TB, but Saba finally played with more patience and it paid off. 1st set to Saba.

Crazy last game and Coco wins. Well deserved girl, I think she has more of a champion mentality than Sabalenka.

So happy for Coco, but also sad for Irina. I love watching Sabalenka play and she seems like a genuinely warm and friendly person. Hope she grabs one of the two remaining ones this year

Great job by Roland Garros on Coco's mic (sarcasm).

I like Aryna, but didn't like her melodrama about playing like crap in the final. Even if true, a bit disrespectful to Coco.

LOL, they fixed her mic halfway near the end of her speech.

yes I have to agree. Irina's comment did make me a bit uncomfortable even though I felt she was beating herself up. Those conditions looked tough!

I only watched the last half of the third set, and she definitely seemed to be a bit off/erratic. But I was also really impressed with Coco's defense - how she withstood the Sabalenka onslaughts and managed to get those balls in court.

I think as the match progressed it was clear that Coco's game gave her far more margin in these conditions. She got more and more belief, and if her serve was a bit better she might have won more comfortably
