'Trying not to put pressure on myself!' | Aryna Sabalenka ahead of Australian Open title defence

World number two Aryna Sabalenka said she is doing her best not to put herself under pressure as she prepares for her Australian Open title defence. A breakthrough 2023 for the 25-year-old saw her claim a maiden Grand Slam title at the Australian Open and she also finished runner-up at the US Open and made the semi-finals of Wimbledon and Roland Garros. Sabalenka said she has adopted a new mindset which means she now accepts that she can lose. “Accepting this fact gives you more belief and you're more calm on the court in those crucial moments,“ said the Belarusian. Sabalenka will be the top seed at the Brisbane International where she has a first-round bye before playing either Italian Lucia Bronzetti or American Ashlyn Krueger in the second round.
