World No. 2 Aryna Sabalenka is one of the most popular and loved tennis stars among the younger generation. Although the 2024 Australian Open champion failed to defend her title this year, Sabalenka has built a massive following, and her social media accounts are living proof of this.
On Instagram alone, she has over 2.6 million followers with 799 posts. With three Grand Slam titles at the age of 26, Sabalenka is known for her resilience on the court.
However, her fans seem to like a different side of Sabalenka, which is a bit opposite to what they witness on the court, while she is in her zone to bag those wins.
From Forbes to Flaunt Magazine, Aryna Sabalenka has the power to turn heads with her glamorous outfit. Brand endorsements and photoshoots are two of the key earnings fronts for athletes and popular personalities, as they often get brand deals to endorse certain products because of their skyrocketing popularity.
However, the most recent photo shoot for Flaunt Magazine’s cover has left fans mesmerized. Sabalenka has gracefully carried a pink bodysuit with black net stockings. She has even put on a ruffled green jacket to further accentuate the look.
As expected, the picture has gone viral on Instagram as well as X. At the time of writing, it has crossed over 30k likes within a few seconds, eliciting a plethora of reactions online.
Sabalenka recently split with sports marketing behemoth IMG to join Evolve—a smaller agency co-founded by four-time Grand Slam champion Naomi Osaka. During the press conference, she revealed the reason behind the same and expressed how she wasn’t very happy with the service, leading to tension between her and some of their workers.
She said in a news conference at the Australian Open last week, “I was looking to build my brand, wanted a little bit more than IMG was doing for me. I wasn’t happy with the service. There was tension between me and some of the people out there.”
With that being said, Sabalenka is now preparing for the next Grand Slam title, which is the French Open.
