Belarusian tennis star Aryna Sabalenka captures her 11th WTA Tour singles title, defeating teenaged Czech qualifier Linda Noskova
The big-hitting Sabalenka made a sluggish start to the WTA 500 event this week before hitting her stride.
Aryna Sabalenka warmed up for the Australian Open by capturing her 11th WTA Tour title with a 6-3 7-6 win over teenaged Czech qualifier Linda Noskova in the Adelaide International 1 final on Sunday. In doing so she ended an extraordinary run by the 18-year-old Noskova who beat third-seeded Daria Kasatkina and former Australian Open champion Viktoria Asarenka in the main draw on the way to her first final.
Sabalenka didn’t drop a set all week and seemed set for another comfortable win when she took out the first set on Sunday. But Noskova was much more competitive in the second, holding serve and putting pressure on Sabalenka’s serve, especially with her powerful backhand returns. “I want to congratulate on an amazing week,” Sabalenka said. “I think you’re going to have a great future and 100 percent appear in many more finals.”
