Aryna Sabalenka had to push herself to the limit to secure the victory in her second match of the WTA Finals. Her opponent, Jessica Pegula, had previously defeated Coco Gauff in her opening match and once again posed difficulties for the Belarusian. However, the world number one managed to withstand the challenge and clinched the win in three sets with a score of 6-4, 2-6, 6-3, after two hours and four minutes. Despite having two wins, Sabalenka is not mathematically qualified for the semifinals yet, although it seems highly likely: simply winning a set against Gauff would secure her the top spot in the group. But if she loses in straight sets, she would need to rely on calculations after observing the match between Jessica Pegula and Jasmine Paolini.

Aryna Sabalenka faces a major challenge in Riyadh and does so full of motivation. The current world number 1 does not yet have this tournament on her list of accomplishments and aims to conquer it at these WTA Finals 2025, where she started in the best possible way. She showcased an outstanding level of play to defeat the Italian Jasmine Paolini with a score of 6-3, 6-1.

The Belarusian accepted her bad behavior and apologized to Anton Dubrov, although this moment ended up helping her bring out her best tennis against Pegula.
For months, it has been known that one of those events that generate great media attention was brewing. The so-called Battle of the Sexes, a match between Aryna Sabalenka and Nick Kyrgios, will take place on December 28 in Dubai. There will be great interest in seeing how the encounter unfolds, as the Australian took care to heat things up months ago, stating that it was impossible for him to lose to the current world number 1.

Aryna Sabalenka finishes the year 2025 as the undisputed queen of the WTA ranking. The Belarusian has led the ranking throughout the entire calendar year, joining a select group of legends who have also achieved this feat, such as Chris Evert, Martina Navratilova, Steffi Graf, Monica Seles, Serena Williams, and Ashleigh Barty, all retired from professional competition.
To maintain that top position with 9,870 points, Sabalenka achieved three WTA titles in 2025 and claimed victory at the US Open, also reaching the finals of both the Australian Open and Roland Garros.
