Part one - Sabalenka’s victory over Amanda Anisimova. We cover the key moments from the match, the way Sabalenka handled the big match emotions better than Anisimova, the most interesting lines from the press conferences, and what might be next for both players. Can Sabalenka win a major on grass or clay? Will Anisimova’s time come at the Grand Slams?
