World No. 1 Aryna Sabalenka is serving up heat both on the court and in her latest social media drop. The Belarusian star took a break from her Toronto campaign to share a new vlog from her recent getaway to Mykonos, and the footage has fans hitting the like button hard.
In the vlog, Sabalenka is seen soaking up the Greek sun in a stunning red swimsuit, and the reaction was immediate. "You are the best," one fan commented, while another wrote, "Absolutely gorgeous Aryna." The praise didn't stop there, with one Instagram user asking, "Athlete or model?" It's clear Sabalenka's off-court style is just as captivating as her powerful groundstrokes.
The timing couldn't be better. Sabalenka has been navigating a rollercoaster 2026 season, but she's found her footing in Toronto. Over the last 72 hours, she's dispatched Moyuka Uchijima and Shuai Zhang in straight sets, showing signs of the dominant form that has made her the player to beat on hard courts.
"I was trying to step in and then I would step back and nothing really clicked," Sabalenka admitted after her third-round win. "In the end I finally started moving a little bit better and finding my rhythm, so I'm really happy at the end it really clicked."
Up next for Sabalenka is a Round of 16 clash with Ekaterina Alexandrova, a match that could further solidify her momentum. With the US Open looming, Sabalenka is eager to prove she's still the queen of the hard courts, a title she's held by winning in New York in 2024 and 2025.
While she hasn't added a Grand Slam to her collection this season, oddsmakers have her as the favorite to lift the trophy in Flushing Meadows. Her recent form in Toronto, combined with her undeniable confidence, suggests she's peaking at the right time.
Sabalenka's vlog isn't the only swimsuit moment turning heads in the sports world. Lindsey Vonn's red swimsuit also sparked a frenzy, and Paula Badosa's sizzling snap had fans buzzing too. Even Maria Menounos stunned in Greece with her own beachside post.
For Sabalenka, the focus now shifts back to the court. If she can carry this momentum through Toronto and into the US Open, there's every reason to believe she'll be hoisting another trophy come September. For now, fans are just enjoying the show—both on and off the court.
