World No. 2 tennis player Aryna Sabalenka, a two-time Australian Open champion, is set to participate in the Miami Open this week despite the recent passing of her longtime boyfriend, former NHL player Konstantin Koltsov, in Miami.
Sabalenka's decision to continue competing was confirmed by a WTA spokesperson, who stated that she remains entered in the tournament. The tennis star was seen training in Miami as she prepares for her upcoming matches, with reports indicating that she will not engage with the media during the event.
