Aryna Sabalenka made history by becoming the first woman since Serena Williams to successfully defend her US Open title. She defeated Jessica Pegula in last year's final and followed it up with a hard-fought win over Amanda Anisimova this year.

The victory was especially sweet, as it marked her first Grand Slam final triumph in 2025 after falling short in two earlier Major finals this season.

Aryna Sabalenka speaks about overcoming emotions after Australian Open & French Open final losses to convert US Open title

Aryna Sabalenka began the year strongly and reached the Australian Open final. She was looking to win a historic three-peat but was stopped in her tracks by Madison Keys.

Later, at the French Open, Sabalenka was hunting her first clay-court Major. However, this time, it was Coco Gauff who rained on her parade and bagged the title.

At the 2025 US Open, Sabalenka stood in front of another American woman in a Grand Slam final. But the Belarusian finally came out on top. The World No. 1 opened up on her 'wrong mindset' that led to two Major final losses in 2025.

"I was in Mykonos, reading my book, enjoying the view. And I was just thinking that why would I let my emotions take control over me in those two finals? And it felt like I thought that, okay, if I made it to the final, it means that I'm going to win it," Aryna Sabalenka said.

She continued:

"I sort of didn't expect players to come out there and to fight, I thought that everything gonna go easily my way, which was completely wrong mindset."

Ahead of the US Open final, Sabalenka made a conscious decision to stay in control of her emotions. Her mindset was to fight for every point and stay focused throughout the match. Reflecting on her performance, she said the biggest lesson learned was maintaining composure.
