Aryna Sabalenka overcame a challenging 2025 season to become the first woman since Serena Williams in 2014 to win consecutive U.S. Open titles, defeating Amanda Anisimova 6-3, 7-6(3).

  • At Arthur Ashe Stadium on September 06, 2025, Aryna Sabalenka, Belarusian tennis player, secured her second consecutive U.S. Open women’s singles title by beating Amanda Anisimova, American tennis player, 6-3, 7-6.
  • After a year of disappointing major results, Sabalenka entered the 2025 season marked by losses in earlier Grand Slam finals and faced Amanda Anisimova, who defeated her in the Wimbledon semifinals, helping drive her focus to correct past mistakes.
  • In a 94-minute final, Aryna Sabalenka withstood a late rally from Amanda Anisimova to claim her fourth career Grand Slam singles title.
  • With a record pool in 2025, the U.S. Open prize money included a $90 million overall pool, up 20% from the $75 million 2024 pool, and a $5 million champions' payout for singles winners.
  • Framed by the U.S. Open's equal-pay history, Aryna Sabalenka's consecutive wins place her alongside Serena Williams, Chris Evert, and Steffi Graf, honoring Billie Jean King's legacy since 1973.
