“Tired of Losing the Final”: Aryna Sabalenka Splashes $250K on ‘Craziest’ Porsche Ahead of Madrid Open 2025

Days after coming out second best against Jelena Ostapenko in Stuttgart, Aryna Sabalenka is looking for a quick turnaround at the 2025 Madrid Open. The 26-year-old is displaying great form this year, and has runner-up points to defend in the Spanish capital. After losing an agonisingly close final to Iga Swiatek last year in Madrid, can the Belarusian powerhouse go one step further this year?
Aryna Sabalenka is fully justifying her World No. 1 ranking in 2025. She won the Brisbane International trophy before a finalist’s finish in Melbourne Park. After a poor Middle Eastern swing, the three-time Grand Slam champion reached three consecutive finals at Indian Wells, Miami and Stuttgart. However, Sabalenka has been unable to leap over the last hurdle and win the Porsche in Stuttgart (lost four finals). For the lack of a better option, the World No. 1 has made a big splurge.
