World No. 1 Aryna Sabalenka successfully defended her US Open crown, overpowering Amanda Anisimova in the 2025 final to secure her fourth Grand Slam title and her first major trophy of the season.
The Belarusian star displayed her trademark power and intensity on Arthur Ashe Stadium, blasting her way past Anisimova to confirm her dominance on the biggest stage in women’s tennis. With this victory, Sabalenka now adds another chapter to her already stellar career, firmly holding her spot at the top of the WTA rankings.
🔥 Sabalenka’s Statement Win
Sabalenka entered New York under pressure to back up her 2024 triumph, and she delivered in style. From the very first game, her thundering serves and explosive groundstrokes dictated play, leaving little room for Anisimova to find her rhythm.
By clinching the title, Sabalenka not only defended her crown but also reminded the tennis world that her aggressive, fearless style remains unmatched on hard courts.
🎾 Anisimova’s Resurgence
For Amanda Anisimova, the final marked a remarkable return to the Grand Slam spotlight. Once touted as a teenage prodigy, she has battled setbacks in recent years but found her form again in Flushing Meadows. Despite falling short in the final, Anisimova’s performance throughout the tournament signaled a strong comeback and proved she belongs among the elite.
👑 Sabalenka Joins the Legends
With four majors now in her collection, Sabalenka has firmly cemented herself among the greats of modern tennis. Her win marks back-to-back US Open titles, making her the first woman since Serena Williams to defend the New York crown.
🌟 What This Means for Women’s Tennis
The Sabalenka–Anisimova final represents the growing depth in the women’s game. Sabalenka continues to set the standard at the top, but Anisimova’s resurgence, combined with other rising stars, ensures the WTA remains as competitive as ever.
For now, though, this US Open belongs to Aryna Sabalenka — the queen of Flushing Meadows.
