Aryna Sabalenka, who is going to be the No. 1 player in the WTA rankings next week because of Iga Swiatek’s fourth-round loss, still has not dropped a set at Flushing Meadows
Aryna Sabalenka moved into the U.S. Open semi-finals on Wednesday, looking every bit the top player in the world while rolling to a 6-1, 6-4 victory over Zheng Qinwen in just over an hour.
The No. 2-seeded Belarusian has made the last five Grand Slam semi-finals, winning her lone major at the Australian Open in January. Zheng, a 20-year-old from China who reached her first Grand Slam quarter-finals by taking out No. 3 seed Ons Jabeur, fought off a match point with an ace. But she got just 41 per cent of her first serves in play and won just three points against Sabalenka’s first serves.
Also scheduled for the day session, fellow Russians Daniil Medvedev and Andrey Rublev meet for a spot in the semi-finals. The third-seeded Medvedev won the title at Flushing Meadows in 2021.
