## Resource

Elena Rybakina shocks the tennis world by defeating Aryna Sabalenka in a thrilling three-set U.S. Open final, claiming her first Grand Slam title and vaulting to world number one. With a 6-4, 5-7, 6-2 victory, Rybakina ends Sabalenka’s bid for a third straight U.S. Open crown — a feat last seen with Serena Williams. The Kazakh star, who also beat Sabalenka in the Australian Open final earlier this year, showcased clutch play, converting key break points while Sabalenka struggled with unforced errors. Rybakina surged in the third set, taking control with a commanding 4-1 lead and sealing it with an ace. This marks their fourth meeting of the year, with Rybakina now dominating on hard courts. The winner cashes in $5.5 million, while Sabalenka takes home $2.8 million for a valiant run to the final. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
