Thats the second year running the Australian Open champion has beaten the world number 1 and 2 to win the title! Still have to go through Iga AND Aryna if you want to snatch the title. Elena Rybakina beat Aryna Sabalenka 6-4, 4-6, 6-4.

I can’t say I’m surprised that Aryna Sabalenka & Elena Rybakina are in the final of the Australian Open. These two blow everyone away with their power. I hope Elena can pull it off but I know Aryna is a tough customer. Elena is up to #3 in the live rankings.

A very unlikely final in Shanghai. Arthur Rinderknech & Valentin Vacherot will play in the final of the tournament. The 2 players are cousins. Their mothers are sisters. Both players competed for Texas A&M University on the college circuit, where they were teammates from 2016-2018.
