Aryna Sabalenka ‘learnt a lot’ from reaction to losing the French Open final
World number one Aryna Sabalenka has been able to clear the air with Coco Gauff after her emotional reaction to losing the French Open final to the American earlier this month.
The Belarusian was heavily criticised after attributing the defeat to her own mistakes rather than Gauff’s performance, and apologised both privately and publicly for describing the match as the worst final she had played.
The two players looked to have put those hostilities firmly behind them in social media clips posted from Wimbledon on Friday, and Sabalenka was contrite in accepting the negative response her comments prompted.
