Aryna Sabalenka became the fifth WTA player to complete the Sunshine Double.
Aryna Sabalenka produced a commanding performance to defeat Coco Gauff 6-2, 4-6, 6-3 in the Miami Open 2026 final, successfully defending her title and completing the coveted Sunshine Double.
The World No. 1 showcased her dominance on hard courts, controlling the match with her powerful serve and aggressive baseline play, while maintaining composure in the decisive third set.
Gauff, playing in front of a home crowd, put up a spirited fight and forced a decider with her only break of the match, but Sabalenka’s consistency and mental strength proved decisive.
With this victory, Sabalenka became only the fifth woman in history to win both Indian Wells and Miami in the same season, further cementing her status as the standout player on the WTA Tour in this decade.
Sabalenka also called out a fan who tried to interrupt her mid-rally during the post-match presentation: “I don’t know where you are… That lady that yelled, that hoped for the ‘out’. I shouldn’t be that rude, but come on, you cannot do that, you know? So let’s agree we were both wrong, so sorry.
“And thank you, guys, for an incredible atmosphere, you always bring incredible vibes and a full stadium for our final, thank you so much,” the 27-year-old added.
