Aryna Sabalenka’s Dominance Continues: Historic US Open Victory Cements Her Legacy
Historic Achievement at the US Open
Aryna Sabalenka has made tennis history by becoming the first woman in 11 years to win consecutive US Open championships, defeating Amanda Anisimova in straight sets, 6-3, 7-6 (3).
Rise to Tennis Supremacy
Currently ranked as the world No. 1 in women’s singles and a former world No. 1 in doubles, Sabalenka has amassed an impressive 21 WTA Tour-level singles titles, including four majors – two at the Australian Open and two at the US Open – as well as nine WTA 1000 events.
Her dominance over the past year has been remarkable. She has won six tournaments in the last 12 months, including victories at Cincinnati, the US Open, Wuhan, Brisbane, Miami, and Madrid. Beyond these victories, she has reached the finals in several prestigious tournaments including the Australian Open, Indian Wells, Stuttgart, and Roland Garros.
2025 Season Highlights
The 2025 season has been particularly successful for Sabalenka, as she not only defended her US Open title but also reached the finals of both the Australian and French Opens. She has achieved a remarkable feat by becoming only the second player since 2000 to reach 10 Women’s Singles Grand Slam semi-finals in a span of 11 consecutive appearances.
Professional Development
Sabalenka’s current success is supported by a strong coaching team, which includes Belarusian tennis legend Max Mirnyi as a consultant, Anton Dubrov as her coach, fitness trainer Jason Stacy, and hitting partner Andrei Vasilevski. In a significant business move, she recently became a global ambassador and minority shareholder of IM8, a health-supplement brand co-founded by David Beckham.
This latest victory further solidifies Sabalenka’s position as one of the most dominant forces in women’s tennis, with her powerful playing style and improved mental game contributing to her continued success at the highest level of the sport.
