Aryna Sabalenka, despite her remarkable 2024 season, including two Grand Slam victories, isn’t overly focused on reclaiming the World No. 1 ranking. Following her recent triumphs, many expected her to chase the top spot fiercely, but Sabalenka maintains a grounded outlook, emphasizing consistency and growth over rankings.

When asked about the importance of being ranked No. 1, Sabalenka responded:

“I mean, I’m not trying to focus on ranking, to be honest. Not like I’m checking where I’m gonna be after the tournament. I’m just trying to focus on myself, and I know that if on each tournament I’ll be able to play my best tennis and I’ll be able to bring this fight spirit on each game, I’ll be able to become World No. 1 again. So my focus is on myself, on improving myself as a player and as a person.”

Sabalenka’s mindset reflects her focus on long-term excellence rather than immediate validation, suggesting that for her, the journey and personal improvement are just as important as reaching the top.
