Aryna Sabalenka triumphed at the 2024 U.S. Open, defeating Jessica Pegula 7-5, 7-5 in a gripping final at Arthur Ashe Stadium to claim her third Grand Slam title and first U.S. Open championship. Sabalenka, who had previously won the Australian Open twice, showcased her powerful game and resilience, recovering from past setbacks at this tournament. Despite Pegula's spirited comebacks, Sabalenka's consistency and dominant play secured her victory, marking redemption after her runner-up finish in 2023. This win makes Sabalenka the first woman since Angelique Kerber in 2016 to win both the U.S. Open and Australian Open in the same year. Sabalenka's performance, including a 12-match winning streak, has solidified her status as the world's No. 2 player.
