Aryna Sabalenka’s raw reaction after US Open final loss caught on camera

The US Open final was a devastating one for Aryna Sabalenka, who was surely determined to claim the title after Elena Rybakina took the world No. 1 ranking from her.

Emotions were low on Sabalenka’s side after the match. Following the loss, she broke her racket before sitting with her team, where she remained silent as she processed the defeat.

Then, the stadium cameras pointed directly at her and captured one of the most visceral moments of her reaction. Realizing the camera was in front of her, Sabalenka tried to wave it away, and it was clear she mouthed a strong “f*ck off.” Many have labeled Aryna a bad loser and a sore winner, and moments like this are likely to fuel that perception.
