Sabalenka Reaches Second Straight Miami SF, Sets Rematch With Rybakina

By IANS News March 26, 2026 • 09:30 AM View: 120

Miami SF: Aryna Sabalenka registered a resounding 6-4, 6-4 victory over Hailey Baptiste and advanced to her second straight Miami Open semifinal.

Baptiste did well to go toe-to-toe with sabalenka but the World No. 1 maintained her trademark aggression while slowly letting the match tilt in her favor. She won the points she needed, saving three break points in the opening set to repeatedly put Baptiste in unenviable positions.

Despite playing at a high level throughout the opener, the 24-year-old Baptiste finally cracked, with an ill-timed double fault handing Sabalenka the set.
