aryna sabalenka

Sabalenka re-establishing her edge over Rybakina who has looked more passive in their last two meetings.

They're evenly matched offensively, but Sabalenka is way better on defence which has been decisive in their last couple of matches.

The best tennis I have seen by Sabalenka. Great serving, returning, power, shot placement, court position, few unforced errors. It was a masterclass. Rybakina had her moments but her serve was off and her inconsistency appeared at the worst time. I doubt that even the best version of Rybakina can beat Sabalenka on nights like this.

Fire melts ice

What an amazing performance, Aryna!! I was so happy this time compared to your Indian Wells final, because I finally watched your entire match live without overthinking that I might be a bad omen whenever you lost a set. Today really showed that your win was pure skill, strength, and talent not luck. Congratulations again on your victory! A proud fan from the Philippines 🥰🇵🇭

Sabalenka is the best in the world and most consistent, she just is not the same mentally in the finals.

Ugghh much like her shock revenge vs Keys last year, this is the way I wish she had played the AO final. What a performance. She’s the best ❤

For haters it's 'grunts' For fans it's 'roar'😁

So glad to see back Katie playing more and Getting her Consistency but moreso getting herself into the Mind frame that she can Play with the best of them and Keep up. This should def serve her well in gaining more confidence in the rest of the season.🥂

The grunting just has to go it’s obnoxious. This is not powerlifting. It’s a 2 oz ball.

Sabalenka on fire here. Serving so well gave her confidence.

That Hailey platform serve looks so good

Aryna just levelled up from the Australian Open

Sabalenka obviously did her homework. Great job..

Hailey has improved so much in the last 2 years. Good for her for doing the hard work! It's paying off.

Aryna has reached every tournament’s finals since last year’s WTA Finals.

Eye of the tiger. Aryna too good. Love this revenge.

I love this rivalry!! Aryna and Elena remind me of Evert-Navratilova and Graf-Seles! And then Gauff, Aryne and Elena in the semis justifying their seedings remind me of the golden era of women's tennis in the late 90s and early 2000s - Williams sisters, Hingis, Davenport, Seles, Clijsters, Henin, Capriati.. Power tennis I love!!

Very hard job to be THE Nr. 1: any opponent has nothing to lose against you - can play freely without any expectations and you have all the pressure on you especially from yourself: everytime you have to prove to be the Nr. 1

First Li and now McNally. Everyone tries their hardest against #1 Sabalenka way more than they usually do, like she's got a target on her back. Honestly it's so crazy😂

The shot selection and variety from Aryna was impressive.

The control they have on the ball is insane
