The start of 2026 that puts Sabalenka on a par with the greatest

Aryna Sabalenka is having a nearly perfect start to 2026. In her first four tournaments of the season, the world number one has reached four finals, winning two titles while awaiting the outcome of the Miami Open 2026 final against Coco Gauff. Her only defeat came against Elena Rybakina in the final of the Australian Open 2026, placing her among the greatest in history. In fact, only Martina Hingis, Serena Williams, and Victoria Azarenka had a similar start to the season.

4/4 - Aryna Sabalenka is the fourth player to reach the final at her first four WTA-level events of a season after Martina Hingis (2001), Serena Williams (2003), and Victoria Azarenka (2012) this Century. Unremitting.#MiamiOpen | @MiamiOpen @WTA pic.twitter.com/4TbV2xiQMX
