Aryna Sabalenka defeated Coco Gauff 6-2, 4-6, 6-3 to win the Miami Open 2026 and complete the coveted Sunshine Double. She became the first player since Iga Swiatek in 2022 to achieve the feat, winning both Indian Wells and Miami in the same season. This marked Sabalenka’s second consecutive Miami Open title, a rare accomplishment last achieved by Serena Williams.
The World No. 1 has enjoyed a dominant start to the year, reaching four finals and winning three titles, including Brisbane.
Sabalenka expressed pride in etching her name in history, as she continues her remarkable run at the top of women’s tennis with consistent performances.
