World No. 1 Aryna Sabalenka won a record-equaling Madrid Open title on Saturday, defeating the USA’s Coco Gauff 6-3, 7-6 (3) in the final.

Aryna Sabalenka completed a hat-trick at the Madrid Open on Saturday, beating Coco Gauff to lift her third trophy at the Caja Magica. The world No. 1 only dropped one set on her way to the title, and she has now extended her lead at the top of the rankings.

It figured to be more of the same at the start of Madrid. Dayana Yastrameska of Ukraine bageled her in the first set of their opening match, 6-0. Gauff managed to steady herself and survive that day, though it was dicey to the end, with Gauff failing to serve out the match on her first attempt.
