Aryna Sabalenka shares a day in her life as a World No. 1 training for preseason in Dubai
Aryna Sabalenka completed her 2024 season at the WTA Finals with a loss to eventual champion Coco Gauff in the semifinals. However, the Belarusian had already secured the year-end World No. 1 spot.
Soon after, Sabalenka left for a romantic getaway in Paris with her boyfriend Georgios Frangulis. She was also spotted in Miami with the Oakberry Acai founder and his brother Pedro.
Sabalenka has recently begun her preseason training in Dubai, sharing a glimpse into her routine through a video documenting a day in her life. The World No. 1 was seen training twice a day while enjoying healthy meals and quality time with her team.
The 26-year-old experienced a rollercoaster 2024 season. She started strong by claiming the Australian Open title but faced personal and professional challenges, including missing Wimbledon and the Olympics.
However, she rebounded impressively in the latter half of the season, winning two WTA 1000 titles and the US Open to secure the year-end World No. 1 ranking.
