In a stark contrast to the men’s side, the list of contenders for this year’s Australian Open women’s singles title runs deep. But there is still one clear favourite.
Since the start of 2023, Aryna Sabalenka has won 38 of the 40 matches she has played in Australia, winning the Australian Open twice. Over that same period, she has compiled a record of 40-2 at both the Australian Open and US Open. The 27-year-old Belarusian is bidding for a seventh hard-court grand slam final in a row.
