In a jaw-dropping feat that has fans and pundits alike scrambling for superlatives, Aryna Sabalenka has officially etched her name alongside the legendary Serena Williams — becoming the first player since 2015 to achieve a record that has stood untouched for nearly a decade.
So, what exactly did she pull off? Sabalenka has become the first woman since Serena to reach the semifinals of all four Grand Slams in a single season. Yes, you read that right — all four. The Australian Open, Roland Garros, Wimbledon, and now the US Open have all seen Sabalenka punch her ticket to the final four. It’s a level of consistency, mental strength, and all-surface dominance that only the absolute elite in tennis history can claim.
And let’s be clear: this isn’t some fluke. Sabalenka has been crushing her opponents with a mix of powerful groundstrokes, fearless shot selection, and a serve that could knock the fuzz off a tennis ball. Her 2025 campaign has been nothing short of electric, with each Grand Slam bringing not just deep runs — but big statements.
Fans were already buzzing about her rise in the WTA rankings, but now? She’s officially in “Serena territory,” and that’s sacred ground in women’s tennis.
“This is elite company,” said one tennis analyst. “When you start being mentioned in the same breath as Serena, you’re not just having a good season — you’re changing the game.”
The internet lit up immediately after the stat was confirmed, with hashtags like #SabalenkaEra and #HistoryMade trending worldwide. Twitter and Instagram flooded with praise, highlight reels, and stunned emojis. Even former players chimed in, congratulating Sabalenka on the achievement. “Big-time performance all year long. She deserves this,” wrote one former top 10 star.
What makes it even sweeter? Sabalenka isn’t done yet. With her eyes now firmly set on capturing more Grand Slam titles, she’s sending a clear message to the rest of the field: she’s not just showing up — she’s here to dominate.
For fans longing for a new powerhouse in women’s tennis, Aryna Sabalenka may have just officially taken the throne — or at the very least, pulled up a chair next to the queen herself.
Tennis history is being rewritten, and Sabalenka’s pen is on fire.
