Sabalenka has arrived in Brisbane!
Aryna Sabalenka is getting ready to launch her 2025 season. Having arrived in Australia, the world's number one will be doing her utmost to prepare for the defense of her title in Melbourne by taking part in the WTA 500 in Brisbane.
Last year's finalist, beaten by a great Elena Rybakina (6-0, 6-3), Sabalenka will have to rise to the occasion, as she has no less than 2350 pts to defend in two tournaments.
Quickly interviewed by the press, the 26-year-old appeared smiling and motivated (see video below).
On the tennis front, we'll have our first answers from December 29, when the Brisbane tournament kicks off.
