World number three Aryna Sabalenka believes that her recent win against the current world number one Iga Swiatek in the Cincinnati Open will give her a huge boost ahead of the US Open. The fourth and final Grand Slam of the year will begin from August 26 where players from all over the world will showcase their talent to secure the ultimate prize.
Sabalenka is currently taking part in the Cincinnati Open, where she booked her place in the final of the competition after beating Swiatek in straight sets with a score of 6-3, 6-3. It was only her fourth win in 12 meetings against the current world number one player in professional tennis. Talking after the match, Sabalenka stated that, in her opinion, the win would give her a lot of confidence going into the US Open. She also stated that she is not looking to live in the past; instead, she focuses on preparing for what’s coming next.
“This definitely gave me a lot of confidence going to the US Open,” she said. “But it’s already in the past.. if I’m gonna focus on this win, I’m gonna be staying in the past. I’m really happy with the win. It was a brilliant performance from me. But I just want to focus on staying in the moment and bringing my best tennis every time I’m on court. Trying to stay calm, confident, & aggressive on court.”
Sabalenka had an impressive US Open last year, where she finished as the runner-up after losing in the final to America’s young tennis sensation Coco Gauff with a score of 2–6, 6–3, 6–2. In Cincinnati, the Belarus tennis star will face America’s Jessica Pegula in the final on Monday. The 30-year-old defeated Spain’s Paula Badosa in the semifinal on Sunday with a score of 6-2, 3-6, 6-3.
