    Fifth seed Aryna Sabalenka reached her first Grand Slam final after defeating Magda Linette at the 2023 Australian Open. Sabalenka claimed a 7-6(1), 6-2 win after an hour and 33 minutes. The 24-year-old has extended her winning streak to 10. Sabalenka has now won a career-best 20 consecutive sets. She will face Elena Rybakina in the summit clash. Here are the key stats.
