US Open. UU.: Sabalenka wins the second consecutive title, defeats Anisimova | Tennis news

The world number one, Aryna Sabalenka, defended its title of the US Open with a direct victory against the Wimbledon runner -up, Ampanda Anisimova.

Aryna Sabalenka retained her US Open crown with a 6-3, 7-6 (3) victory over the eighth seed American Amanda Anisimova in the female final on Saturday, underlining her claim as the modern queen of the hard cover.

The Belarusian has not lost a great final of the hard court since 2022. His last trophy has his Grand Slam Tars to Four, since he becomes the first woman to win the US of US, since Serena Williams claimed three consecutive titles from 2012 to 2014.

The battle between two of the most affected and most led women of tennis was reduced to non -forced errors, since Sabalenka kept them 15 compared to 29 of their opponent.

“I want to thank everyone who came here, who flew to be there in my box,” said Sabalenka, who fell on his knees after securing the game with a non -withdrawal service, and jumped from top to bottom with his coaches in the stands in a scene of absolute joy.

“I'm going to get to many more finals, and I don't care where you're in the world, I love you in my box.”

Playing only in his second important, anisimova final, born in New Jersey, he had partisan fans in the famous Arthur Ashe Stadium on his side, but could never hold on to impulse.

“It has been a great summer. Losing in two followed finals is great, but it is also super difficult,” said Anisimova, 24, who was in tears once again after the anguish of his 6-0, 6-0 gun in the last Wimbledon final two months ago.

“I didn't fight enough for my dreams today.”

Sabalenka establishes the early tone

Sabalenka, 27, had ice in her veins while saving three rest points in a first nervous game, and Anisimova delivered the break early when she sent a shot beyond the baseline in the second.

Anisimova took its passage when he won a 12 -shooting rally with a right -wing winner outside Sabalenka to return in the third game. The American rose a break when his opponent hit one beyond the baseline in the fifth.

The bellruso attacked by the Tigre meloded along the baseline with frustration and pounced on his opportunity to recover the impulse, breaking Anisimova to love in the sixth game and turning into another rest point from the baseline in the eighth.

Sabalenka closed the first set with a non -withdrawal service and sent a setback beyond her opponent to become a rest point in the third game of the second set.

Anisimova refused to surrender while leveled it in the sixth with a set -up winner, taking fans to a frenzy. But the American party ended abruptly when his hope hope sent the ball to the network at a rest point in the seventh.

Anisimova stayed in him when Sabalenka helped her go back with a Smash Flubbed in the tenth game. But she fashed to the bell -rash power in the tiebreaker, where Sabalenka ran to victory.
