The US Open has just made the schedule for this Saturday, September 12 official, a day in which the main event will be the women's final between Aryna Sabalenka and Elena Rybakina. The world number 1 and number 2 will face off in the best possible matchup, and Arthur Ashe Stadium will be dressed to impress on a day when the men's doubles final will also take place just before.

 

 

At 12:00 PM (6:00 PM in Spain), Christian Harrison and Neal Skupski will take the court to face Kevin Krawietz and Tim Puetz. Later, not before 4:00 PM (10:00 PM in Spain), Sabalenka and Rybakina will step onto the Arthur Ashe court in what will be a repeat of the final held at the Australian Open earlier this year. On that occasion, the winner was the Kazakh player, so the Belarusian will seek redemption to achieve her first Grand Slam of the season and her third consecutive one in New York.

Sabalenka, craving revenge after losing the number 1

It should not be forgotten that in this tournament Rybakina has taken the number 1 from Sabalenka. After a terrible crisis of results for the Belarusian, the Kazakh only needed to reach the semifinals in this tournament even if Aryna lifted the trophy. The only doubt was how her physical condition would be after retiring in the WTA Cincinnati, but she has shown her best level to reach a new Grand Slam final.

Sabalenka, for her part, has revealed that she prefers to lift the title again in New York than to be number 1 since the latter will come back with time if she continues to play well. A match of short points and many winners is expected, as both are the two most aggressive players on the circuit. A relentless battle that is not the first, nor will it be the last.
