Aryna Sabalenka is on a roll! The Belarusian tennis star has won her 14th consecutive match in Australia, defeating American Christina McHale 6-3, 6-2 in the quarterfinals of the Brisbane International. This impressive streak of victories has earned her a spot in the semifinals, where she will face off against fellow Belarusian Victoria Azarenka.
Sabalenka has been on a tear since the start of the season, winning the Adelaide International and making it to the quarterfinals of the Australian Open. Her impressive form has continued in Brisbane, where she has yet to drop a set in her four matches. She has been particularly impressive on serve, winning over 80% of her first serve points and not dropping a single service game in her last two matches.
The semifinal matchup between Sabalenka and Azarenka promises to be an exciting one. Azarenka is a two-time Grand Slam champion and former world number one, and she is no stranger to success in Brisbane, having won the tournament in 2013 and 2014. Both players have been in excellent form so far this season, and it will be interesting to see who comes out on top.
Sabalenka’s impressive run of form has seen her rise to a career-high ranking of number 11 in the world. If she can continue her winning streak in Brisbane, she could potentially break into the top 10 for the first time in her career. No matter what happens, it is clear that Sabalenka is one of the most exciting young talents on the WTA Tour and is sure to be a force to be reckoned with for years to come.
