Aryna Sabalenka returned to Arthur Ashe Stadium not for another match, but for a celebration of triumph and style. After defeating Amanda Anisimova in straight sets to claim her second consecutive US Open title, the World No. 1 posed for a series of striking photos with the iconic silver trophy. The arena, once filled with roaring fans, was silent as Sabalenka stood alone, radiating pride and elegance.
Fashion meets victory on center court
For the champions’ photoshoot, Sabalenka wore a $1,630 Magda Butrym light pink, high-neck, ruched midi dress with a cape overlay. She paired the look with nude Femme GG heels and a sleek Audemars Piguet watch, blending athletic achievement with high fashion. The choice of attire added a glamorous layer to her public image, showcasing her versatility both as a fierce competitor and a style icon.
A celebration of resilience and grace
The photos captured more than just a title—they reflected Sabalenka’s journey through a demanding season. After falling short in two Grand Slam finals earlier in the year, her victory in New York marked a powerful comeback. Her expression in the photos—equal parts joy, relief, and determination—spoke volumes about the emotional weight of the moment.
Fans and fashion world react
Sabalenka’s photos quickly gained attention across social media, with fans praising her poise and elegance. Fashion enthusiasts highlighted the sophistication of her outfit, while tennis followers celebrated her achievement and the confidence she displayed. The contrast between the empty stadium and her commanding presence made the shoot unforgettable.

She reflected on the challenges of the season and expressed appreciation for the strength she found along the way. Her words, paired with the powerful visuals, offered insight into the mindset of a champion who continues to evolve—on and off the court.
