Aryna Sabalenka produced a superb performance on Saturday to clinch her second Australian Open title. The Belarusian took no time to race past the Chinese 12th seed, Qinwen Zheng, to successfully defend her title. 

Joining Jennifer Capriati, Serena Williams, and Victoria Azarenka, Sabalenka finds herself among the greatest of all time. After winning the title against Qinwen Zheng, Sabalenka, via her Twitter account, thanked the fans of Australia and called Australia her ‘second home’.

The amount of love and support she has received in Australia, not just in Melbourne but also in other cities, has been phenomenal. That’s not all; during the Brisbane International, the World No. 2 highlighted that if she had received the same level of support at the US Open last year, she would have won the title.

The sheer dominance she displayed during the Grand Slam is second to none, as she didn’t drop a single set on her road to the title. Defeating World No. 4 Coco Gauff in the semi-finals, Sabalenka truly remained a favorite throughout the prestigious tournament.

Going by this form, she will definitely be the favorite going into the next tournaments of the season. That’s not all; as per World No. 2 herself, she didn’t want to be that player who won the Grand Slam and then disappeared. With that being said, there is no denying that this speaks of her hunger for more titles.
