Sabalenka overcame a late charge from Amanda Anisimova to win the women's singles final 6-3, 7-6(3) at Flushing Meadows on the night of Saturday, August 6. After the conclusion of the trophy presentation ceremony, Sabalenka was shown a video of Frangulis, in which the Brazil-born entrepreneur with Greek roots laid bare his love for the Belarusian and also declared her the "queen of New York".

"You're so freaking amazing. I love you so much and yeah, you did it again. Queen of New York, queen of my heart of course," Frangulis said.

The 2025 US Open marks the end of Sabalenka's Major drought this year. The Belarusian played in the finals of both the 2025 Australian Open and the French Open. However, she was defeated by Madison Keys and Coco Gauff respectively. At the Wimbledon Championships, Sabalenka reached the last four, but couldn't make it to the final because of a loss to Anisimova.

At her post-match press conference, the World No. 1, in a jovial mood, said she will now take a few days off to celebrate her success.
