Aryna Sabalenka vs Linda Noskova highlights
Aryna Sabalenka vs Linda Noskova highlights from the US Open quarter finals.
In a thrilling US Open semi-final match, defending champion Aryna Sabalenka overcame a resilient Linda Noskova to keep her three-peat bid alive. The Belarusian star defeated the 21-year-old Wimbledon champion 7-6 (7/1), 3-6, 7-6 (10/7) in a grueling final set tiebreaker. Sabalenka, who has now won 18 straight matches at Flushing Meadows, admitted the match was intense, particularly in the third set, but attributed her comeback to pushing herself to the limit and feeling loose.
Noskova, who broke Sabalenka's serve 18 times, became the first player to take a set off the defending champion in the tournament. Sabalenka, the first woman to hold all four major titles simultaneously since Serena Williams in 2002, must now focus on defending her world No. 1 ranking, which she has held since October 2024. The match will determine the fate of the top seed, with Jessica Pegula and Emma Navarro set to face off in the all-American quarter-final.
