Sabalenka's message to the Madrid audience: "Next time.."
Aryna Sabalenka shared one of the day's anecdotes after her victory against Jaqueline Cristian in the third round of the Mutua Madrid Open. The Belarusian appreciated the court's atmosphere but couldn't help making a joke to the Spanish audience. "Thank you all, the atmosphere has been incredible. But I have to say... when you were cheering more for her, I got a bit mad. Next time, please, support me instead," she said jokingly.
