Aryna Sabalenka moved into her second consecutive U.S. Open final by taking the last seven points and beating Emma Navarro 6-3, 7-6 on Thursday night with her usual brand of high-risk, high-reward tennis. The No. 2-seeded Sabalenka, a 26-year-old from Belarus who won each of the past two Australian Opens, came up a victory short of claiming the championship at Flushing Meadows a year ago, when she lost to Coco Gauff in front of a loud partisan crowd at Arthur Ashe Stadium.
in this semifinal, Sabalenka joked after her previous match she would try to sway them to her side by buying booze, saying, ' Drinks on me tonight? ' Navarro did not fold in the second set, despite trailing for much of it, and she broke when Sabalenka served for the victory at 5-4. But in the tiebreaker that followed, after Navarro led 2-0, Sabalenka took over, grabbing every point that remained. Sabalenka will play for the trophy on Saturday against yet another American, No.
