Madison Keys finally has her first Grand Slam trophy in hand after her victory over Aryna Sabalenka in the 2025 Australian Open final. The American achieved this on her second attempt, becoming the first woman in 20 years to defeat the world number 2, Iga Swiatek, and the number 1, Sabalenka, to claim the title in Melbourne. It's been a while since something like this happened, not since Serena Williams. A great journey for Keys, who continues to surpass herself. Additionally, she is also the oldest player (29 years old) to defeat a top 2 ranking player in the semifinals and final of a Grand Slam.
