Aryna Sabalenka and Elena Rybakina each posted a straight-sets victory on Saturday to advance to the final of the Brisbane International and set up a rematch of the final in the 2023 Australian Open.
Top-seeded Sabalenka notched 10 aces and broke fellow Belarusian Victoria Azarenka’s serve on three occasions en route to extending her winning streak to 15 matches on Australian soil with a 6-2, 6-4 win.
Kazakhstan’s Rybakina, who fell in three sets to Sabalenka in last year’s Australian Open final, recorded eight aces and 26 winners in a 6-3, 6-2 win over Linda Noskova of the Czech Republic.
The second-seeded Rybakina also took advantage of four double faults by her foe to end the match.
