Will anyone be able to stop Aryna Sabalenka in New York?

Galvanized by her title in Cincinnati, the Belarusian is shining brighter than ever and has just scored her 10th consecutive win over Olympic gold medallist and world No.7 Qinwen Zheng.

Buoyed by her new-found, destructive striking power, Sabalenka is racking up one authoritative success after another.
Against a confident Chinese, the world No.2 once again dictated play, winning in less than 1h20 (6-1, 6-2).

Now through to the semi-finals, where she will face a crowd-pleasing Emma Navarro, the 26-year-old is more than ever the favourite for the title.

The finals are here, and we scramble for the best finish. I've been chasing "King" all year and I was able to shrink the spread a little. Skelp is also closing the gap.

Will you all be back in the new year.?

Steffi Graf completed a Golden Slam (not just a career Grand Slam) when she was 19. She is the only person to accomplish that, winning the four majors plus Olympic gold the same calendar year.
