Sabalenka's dominance was most evident in the second set, where she lost a mere four points, tearing through Pegula's defense with ease. The American, who had been riding a wave of momentum after reaching her first Grand Slam semifinal, found herself overwhelmed by the sheer force and accuracy of Sabalenka's shots.
Pegula's serve, usually a reliable weapon, proved ineffective against Sabalenka's relentless returns. The Belarusian relentlessly attacked Pegula's second serve, neutralizing her ability to dictate the tempo of the rallies.

For Pegula, the defeat is a disappointment, but it should not diminish her remarkable run to the final. She has proven that she belongs among the elite of women's tennis, and her powerful serve and steady groundstrokes will continue to pose a formidable challenge to her opponents.
In the post-match press conference, Sabalenka expressed her joy and relief at finally achieving her Grand Slam dream. "It's an incredible feeling," she said.

The US Open title win is a testament to Sabalenka's unwavering determination and the immense talent that has propelled her to the pinnacle of women's tennis. As she looks ahead, the Belarusian will aim to add to her Grand Slam tally and further establish herself as one of the greatest players of her generation.
