Aryna Sabalenka continues dominance with furious start to the Indian Wells Masters

Aryna Sabalenka played her first Indian Wells Masters and she didn't miss a beat beating Rodina 6-2 6-0 in a little over an hour of tennis.

Sabalenka hasn't played since Dubai where she lost to Barbora Krejcikova but it had no effect on her tennis. She came out pretty strong against her opponent attacking early in the rallies but Rodina was able to hold off for a while. Once the Belarussian found a good rhythm it was game over - literally.

The first set finished on a 4-0 run for the final score of 6-2. The second set continued that dominance as she won six more games to secure the win 6-0. She won 10 games in a row and that's a pretty clear picture of how this match largely went. Rodina tried her best but she was simply no match. Five aces from Sabalenka whose serve looks really good.
