Revisiting a theme from her Dubai victory speech that referred to something rapper Snoop Dogg said when he received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, Andreeva told Sunday's crowd: 슬롯사이트œI would again like to thank myself for fighting until the end and for always believing in me and for never quitting.슬롯사이트�

슬롯사이트œI tried to run like a rabbit today,슬롯사이트� Andreeva continued, praising the way Sabalenka hit speedy shots. 슬롯사이트œIt was really hard to just keep up, so I just tried my best and that's why I would thank myself, because I think I played a little part (in the win), also.슬롯사이트�

In the men's final later Sunday, 13th-seeded Jack Draper of Britain defeated 12th-seeded Holger Rune of Denmark 6-2, 6-2 to earn his first Masters 1000 championship.

The left-handed Draper, a U.S. Open semifinalist in September, improved to 13-2 this year and will make his debut in the ATP's top 10 on Monday. When she dropped the first set against three-time Grand Slam title winner Sabalenka, Andreeva put her body into the windup after grabbing a ball, then angrily smacked it toward the stands.

Andreeva 슬롯사이트� wearing training tape on her right shoulder 슬롯사이트� played much better in the second set, particularly on serve, while compiling a 17-7 edge in winners. Soon enough, that set belonged to her when she hit an ace to hold at love for the first time all day.

In the third set, the teenager got started in the best way possible, breaking the big-serving Sabalenka at love. Andreeva took a 1-0 lead in the third with a too-strong passing shot that Sabalenka, a 26-year-old from Belarus, could barely even get her racket on. Andreeva ended the match with one last forehand winner, then dropped to her knees and covered her face with both hands.

This was her fifth consecutive victory over a top-10 opponent, and Andreeva is now 9-5 against players ranked that high since the start of 2024. That includes two victories each over Sabalenka and No. 2 Iga Swiatek, the five-time major champion who lost to Andreeva in the semifinals at Indian Wells.슬롯 머신 사이트 추천Indian Wells 2025: Jack Draper Beats Holger Rune To Secure First ATP Masters 1000 Title.

슬롯사이트œCongrats on an incredible run,슬롯사이트� Sabalenka said during the trophy ceremony. 슬롯사이트œGreat tournament. Great tennis.슬롯사이트�

Andreeva is the first player under age 18 to beat the women ranked No. 1 and No. 2 at the same WTA tournament since Williams defeated Lindsay Davenport and Martina Hingis at the 1999 U.S. Open. She is also the youngest to win a WTA trophy by defeating the woman ranked No. 1 in a final since Maria Sharapova beat Davenport at Tokyo in 2005. Afterward, Andreeva joked about her prematch behavior with her coach, 1994 Wimbledon champion Conchita Martinez.

슬롯사이트œI know I was, as you like to say, a little brat, a little bit, in the morning,슬롯사이트� Andreeva said. 슬롯사이트œThat's because I was super nervous. I'm sorry for that.슬롯사이트�

Sabalenka also lost the 2023 final in the California desert and made light of that on Sunday when she was handed her glass hardware for being the runner-up 슬롯사이트� a similar but much smaller version of what the champion receives.

슬롯사이트œI have a love-hate relationship with this place," Sabalenka said. 슬롯사이트œI'll just put this trophy on top of another one and pretend it's the trophy for winning.슬롯사이트�
