Aryna Sabalenka punched her ticket to the semifinal round of the 2026 Miami Open after a dominant 6-4,6-4 win over American Hailey Baptiste.<\/p>\n

Next up, she\u2019ll face Elena Rybakina in a highly anticipated showdown at Hard Rock Stadium. Rybakina and Sabalenka have gone head-to-head 17 times. After Sabalenka defeated Rybakina earlier this month at Indian Wells, she holds a 9-7 career advantage.<\/p>\n

While Sabalenka (No. 1) and Rybakina (No. 3) have become strong rivals, the Belarusian star enjoys playing against such a strong opponent. \u201cI love it. I love it so much,\u201d Sabalenka told the Tennis Channel<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen someone pushes you to the limit, that\u2019s when you grow, when you become a better player, and when you really test your level and your strength.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ve played a lot of matches recently, and all of them have been battles, real shows. I\u2019m super excited to face her again and can\u2019t wait to step on court.\u201d<\/p>\n

The 27-year-old tennis star has been undefeated since she got engaged to fianc\u00e9, Georgios Frangulis<\/a>. The Oakberry CEO proposed on March 3, and Sabalenka\u2019s been glowing ever since. However, in an interview before her 21st WTA 1000 level semifinal, Sabalenka called out her future husband regarding her ring.<\/p>\n

Aryna Sabalenka Wanted a Bigger Engagement Ring
\nWhile Sabalenka can\u2019t wait to marry the love of her life, Frangulis apparently did not swing for the exact diamond she requested.<\/p>\n

Speaking to the Broadcast Boys<\/a>, she took a trivia quiz about herself. The host asks, \u201cSources estimate your engagement ring has how many carats?\u201d<\/p>\n

Sabalenka guessed, \u201c12?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cCorrect,\u201d the host answers. \u201cIs that what you personally requested?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI requested 14, but I got 12,\u201d Sabalenka said.<\/p>\n

Even it\u2019s not as big as she initially wanted, Sabalenka loves her ring. Speaking to WTA<\/a> last week. When asked what brings sunshine into her life, she got \u201chonest\u201d and provided her answer in the following order: \u201cMy ring, my puppy, my family. Priorities, guys!\u201d<\/p>\n

The ring was created by Isabel Grutman, who detailed the stunning craftsmanship on Instagram. She captioned the video<\/a>, \u201cSo happy and honored to have designed this engagement ring for such a special couple, @arynasabalenka and @georgiosfrangulis \ud83e\udd0d Wishing you both a lifetime of love and happiness!\u201d<\/p>\n
