Photo credit: Simon Bruty/US Open/USTAPaula Badosa celebrated good friend Aryna Sabalenka's US Open title with high praise and request.Two-time Australian Open champion Sabalenka defeated Jessica Pegula 7-5, 7-5 to capture her maiden US Open title on Saturday.The triumph came one year after Sabalenka squandered a one-set lead bowing to Coco Gauff in the 2023 final.Afterward, Sabalenka took to social media thanking fans and friends for their support.That prompted a funny reply from Badosa.


"Believe it. Crazy achievement!" Badosa replied. "You are such a strong woman! I’m really happy for you! You inspire so many people (also me) ps: please leave a bit for the rest… (specially me)." ]]>
