Best Sabalenka has looked all tournament in her Semi Final win over Paula Badosa, and we get a shock match-up against Madison Keys who saved a match point while breaking Swiatek serving for the match.

This probably works in Sabalenka’s favour – she has a 4-1 career record over Keys which includes 3-0 on hard court. Two of those matches were in straight sets, while at the 2023 US Open she had no right beating Keys with the American who served for the match in the second set. Their most recent match was last year in Beijing – Sabalenka winning 6-4 6-3.

Since that US Open in 2023, Sabalenka has played 22 matches against players ranked 7-30 on hard court – her record, 21-1. Amazingly, 19 of those 21 wins were in straight sets. No doubt Keys will come out swinging, but the Belarussian is very familiar with this stage and should be too good.
