Australian Open: Madison Keys can win her first Slam title and stop Aryna Sabalenka’s threepeat
Associated PressMELBOURNE, Australia — The Madison Keys who will play two-time defending champion Aryna Sabalenka for the title at the Australian Open on Saturday night is not the same Madison Keys who was the runner-up at the U.S. Open back in 2017, the one other time the American participated in a Grand Slam final. “But instead of trying to shy away from that and search for settling or comfort or anything, just being OK that that’s the situation — and you can also play tennis through that — is something that I’ve been working really hard on.” And so there Keys was in the semifinals in Melbourne, not merely in the crucible of a third set against a former No. “That’s probably one of the biggest lessons that I can take from that U.S. Open final — just be OK with knowing that I’m probably going to be uncomfortable 99% of the time that I’m on the court,” Keys said, “and that’s OK.” Fratangelo, a former professional player, has emphasized to Keys that she needs to stick to her point-ending quick strikes. “What’s really impressive is her mentality — her ability to kind of always go for it, no matter what the score is,” Keys said. It’s very unique,” said Keys, whose 1-4 career record against Sabalanka includes a loss in the U.S. Open semifinals two years ago.
