Sabalenka wins Connecticut Open

Aryna Sabalenka, the 20-year-old from Belarus, won her first WTA title in the 2018 Connecticut Open final in New Haven. On 25 August, she beat Carla Suarez Navarro in straight sets 6-1, 6-4. On Monday, Sabalenka will move to No. 20 in the WTA rankings. The same time last year she was outside Top 100.
