"New York, I Love You," Sabalenka's message on her social media after her US Open victory
Aryna Sabalenka won her second US Open at the expense of Amanda Anisimova. After a final she won through experience, the world number one celebrated her fourth Grand Slam title, having won all her Major titles on hard courts since the start of her career.
After losing in the final of the Australian Open to Madison Keys and then to Coco Gauff at Roland-Garros this season, Sabalenka finally clinched a Grand Slam in 2025. On her social media, Sabalenka expressed herself nearly 24 hours after her second consecutive triumph in New York.
"I am speechless. All the tough lessons I learned this season... This victory is truly worth it. Winning this trophy again goes beyond what I imagined in my wildest dreams.
Amanda (Anisimova), you are incredible and gave your all in this tournament. Keep it up! To the fans, thank you for your unconditional support. I hear you and I see you.
Knowing you are behind me, supporting me through my ups and downs, is what drives me to do my best every time I step on the court. Finally, to my team, I wouldn't be here without you, but don't forget, you wouldn't be here without me either!
You are my pillars. The unwavering support you give me, traveling with me around the world, and being by my side 24/7, 365 days a year... This trophy is also yours. New York, I love you," Sabalenka wrote on X (formerly Twitter).
