Sabalenka Edges Noskova to Stay on Track for US Open Three-Peat

Aryna Sabalenka held off Linda Noskova in a hard-fought match to advance in the US Open, keeping alive her pursuit of a third consecutive title at the tournament, according to a report by Al Jazeera.

The world number one has been the dominant force in women's tennis at Flushing Meadows in recent years, and the victory over Noskova extends her run at the tournament this season, the report said.

Details of the match score and progression were not specified in the available report. Al Jazeera did not immediately provide additional context on the stage of the tournament or Sabalenka's next opponent.

Sabalenka has previously won back-to-back US Open women's singles titles, and a win this year would mark a third straight championship, a feat that would place her among an elite group of players to achieve such a streak in the modern era.

Noskova, who has emerged as one of the tour's rising competitors, pushed Sabalenka in the contest before ultimately falling short, per the report.
