‘Surprising’ de Minaur act that handed opponent lifeline

Now a grand slam winner, better again an Australian Open champion, Aryna Sabalenka gets to sport her own bespoke look.
Sabalenka has been wearing Nike’s women’s spring slam dress in red.
While other Nike athletes such as Victoria Azarenka and Mirra Andreeva are also kitted out with the dress — Sabalenka is the only one wearing red and she explained how it happened after winning her fourth round match.
“It’s not like I was — how to say — included in part of the process, preparing the colour and everything, no. They just showed me the dress I would play in, and I was super excited to wear the only red dress,” she told media after her fourth-round victory.
“But, I mean, I’m super happy. I feel so special. I really thank Nike that they’ve given me this opportunity to feel special.”
However, always striving for more — just as she does on the court — Sabalenka voiced her interest in a signature design.
“But, of course, I want to have something more, like not just the different colour,” she said.
