Aryna Sabalenka has conquered the third Major of her career in New York. After the double victory at the Australian Open (2023 and 2024), Sabalenka has now triumphed for the first time in her career also at the US Open, avenging the defeat suffered last year against Coco Gauff.
After the victory in straight sets against Jessica Pegula, Aryna analyzed her great victory, praising her American rival and sharing the feelings she felt after this sensational triumph.
“I am speechless right now, it is difficult to express myself. Tonight I thought on many occasions how close I was in the past to winning the US Open title, it has always been a dream of mine and finally I won this beautiful tournament, finally I managed to get my hands on the trophy. It means a lot to me,” she said.
The Belarusian then spent beautiful words for her American rival: “Jess, you are showing fantastic tennis, it is difficult to digest the defeat in a final. I know something about it too but I am sure that you will play other Slam finals.”
