Call to make history. Aryna Sabalenka reaffirms with supreme decisiveness her superiority over her rivals and the feeling that she is destined to set triumphant records that promise to place her name among the tennis goddesses. She secured her eighth WTA 1000 title in a place where she had not been able to win until now, clinching the Miami Open 2025 after defeating Jessica Pegula.

Unlocked success, a display of resilience and fulfilled ambition. Aryna Sabalenka once again demonstrated her greatness in bouncing back from tough losses like the one suffered in California, emerging as the champion of the Miami Open 2025 and sending a clear message to all her rivals. She is the best. Jessica Pegula tried everything in an exciting final, but the Belarusian ended up winning 7-5 6-2 to add her eighth WTA 1000 title. Confidence sky-high heading into the clay court season.

Constant shifts in the game, clash of styles, and nerves on both sides marked an irregular first set for both players. They struggled immensely on serve against the aggressiveness on the return from the opponent, made errors to avoid losing ground, and in the case of the American, found herself overwhelmed by Aryna's shot speed when she managed to dictate the pace. Trailing 5-4, Pegula made an escape attempt but couldn't avoid the blows with which Sabalenka asserted her authority in the eleventh game.

The world number 1's ideas became notably clearer in a second set where she understood that she could reduce the power of her shots to have more margin for error without sacrificing aggressiveness and effectiveness in her plays. Jessica Pegula lost faith as she struggled to score points of her own and Aryna Sabalenka sealed the deal without hesitation. Another title for the trophy collection of a budding legend. This Miami Open 2025 boasts a deserving champion.
