Sabalenka Reflects on Hard-Fought US Open Win Against Noskova: "I Thought I Lost in the Third Set"
World number one Aryna Sabalenka shared her feelings after her challenging victory over Czech player Linda Noskova in the quarter-finals of the US Open 2026.
The match concluded with Sabalenka emerging victorious in three sets, with a score of 7:6 (7:1), 3:6, 7:6 (10:7).
"Oh my god, guys. What a battle. She's such an incredible player. I honestly have no words right now because I gave it my all. In the third set, to be honest, I thought, that's it, the match is over, I lost. Maybe that's what helped me to relax a bit and just start hitting the ball fearlessly.
I'm incredibly happy with this win. It was a tough match, a tough fight. Thank you for being who you are. You are amazing. It's always incredible to play in front of you. Thank you for your support," Sabalenka was quoted as saying by The Tennis Letter.
In the semi-finals, Sabalenka is set to face the winner of the match between Americans Jessica Pegula and Emma Navarro.
