In tennis, Kazakhstan’s Elena Rybakina defeated Belarusian Aryna Sabalenka 6-4, 5-7, 6-2 to win the US Open women’s singles final at Arthur Ashe Stadium in New York last night.

This is Rybakina’s first US Open title and her third career Grand Slam championship, following her Australian Open victory earlier in the year. With the win, Rybakina officially takes over the WTA world No. 1 ranking from Sabalenka.

Earlier, American Christian Harrison and Britain’s Neal Skupski clinched the men’s doubles title, defeating Germany’s Kevin Krawietz and Tim Puetz.

The American-British pair won the final 6-4, 7-6 to claim their second Grand Slam title of the year, after their Australian Open victory in January.

The men’s singles final will be played between Germany’s World No. 2 Alexander Zverev and local favourite Ben Shelton in New York tonight. The match is scheduled to begin at 11:30 PM Indian time.
