Summary
Elena Rybakina stunned the tennis world by capturing the U.S. Open trophy in a gripping three-set battle against Aryna Sabalenka, claiming the top ranking and her third Grand Slam title. Despite a shaky serve, Rybakina’s relentless returns and clutch break points dismantled Sabalenka’s 19-match U.S. Open winning streak — ending her quest for three consecutive titles. The Kazakh star, who battled injuries this year, now stands just one major away from a career Grand Slam and walked away with a record $5.5 million prize. Sabalenka, the long-reigning No. 1, admitted she simply wasn’t good enough on the day — but her power and Rybakina’s poise on court made for a historic showdown.
