Paula Badosa celebrate good friend Aryna Sabalenka US Open title with high ratings and demand.
Two-time Australian Open champion Sabalenka beat Jessica Pegula 7-5, 7-5 to capture her first US Open title on Saturday.
The triumph came a year after Sabalenka lost a one-set lead by bowing out to Coco Gauff in the 2023 final.
Sabalenka then took to social media to thank fans and friends for their support.
This prompted a funny response from Badosa.
I can’t believe I did it 🏆
