Aryna Sabalenka has carved her name even deeper into tennis history, powering past Amanda Anisimova in straight sets — 6–3, 7–6 (7–3) — to successfully defend her US Open title. Under the bright lights of Arthur Ashe Stadium, Sabalenka delivered a performance that showcased not only her trademark power but also a new level of poise and maturity that has defined her incredible season.
With this victory, Sabalenka lifts her fourth Grand Slam trophy, further solidifying her status as one of the dominant forces in the sport. More importantly, she becomes the first woman since Serena Williams to win consecutive US Open titles — a milestone that places her in elite company and underscores her rise as the modern queen of New York.
The match itself was a showcase of aggressive baseline play, fierce serving, and unwavering mental strength. Anisimova fought bravely, especially in the tight second-set tiebreak, but Sabalenka held her ground, refusing to let the momentum slip. When the final point landed, the roar of the crowd was matched by the raw emotion on Sabalenka’s face — joy, relief, and pride blending into a moment she will never forget.
This triumph caps off a remarkable season that has seen Sabalenka refine her game, strengthen her mentality, and build an aura of inevitability on the big stage. Her ability to back up last year’s title proves her consistency, her hunger, and her readiness to carry women’s tennis into a new era of rivalry and excellence.
For Sabalenka, New York has become more than just a venue — it is a kingdom she has conquered two years in a row. And now, with four Grand Slams to her name and history on her side, the world waits to see what she will do next.
