Sabalenka reflects on recent finals

Aryna Sabalenka described her victory at the Indian Wells final as one of her best wins this year. She noted that she faced a tough match where she was down by a couple of match points before securing the win. The player also mentioned feeling disappointed after losing the Australian Open final against Elena Rybakina.

Music choices during matches vary

Sabalenka explained that her listening habits change depending on her mood when she walks onto the court for a match. Sometimes she wears headphones to block out noise and stay in her thoughts, while other times she listens to melodies that make her feel fired up. She listed several favorite artists including Beyoncé, Rihanna, Dua Lipa, and Justin Timberlake as part of her rotation.

Interview covers personal interests

The group discussed their secret lives away from the court during the hangout session organized by Vogue. Topics included pole dancing, UFC participation, and baking cakes among other personal interests revealed by the athletes.
