Rybakina Claims U.S. Open Crown | New York City News

Elena Rybakina just shattered the hard court dominance of Aryna Sabalenka, winning her first U.S. Open title in a dramatic three-set thriller — and in doing so, cemented her status as the new world No. 1. With this victory, she claimed her third Grand Slam trophy and second of the year, both against Sabalenka on hard courts — echoing her Australian Open win earlier this season. She ended Sabalenka’s 19-match U.S. Open winning streak and walked away with a record $5.5 million prize purse, tying Sabalenka and Mirra Andreeva for most titles on tour this year. This isn’t just a win — it’s a statement that Rybakina is now firmly at the top of women’s tennis. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
