Tennis star Aryna Sabalenka was all smiles during a recent visit to an MLS game, where she was presented with a custom Inter Miami jersey by none other than football icon David Beckham. The lighthearted moment followed her impressive triumph at the Miami Open and added to a memorable week for the Belarusian.

“I love it, I love it so much,” Sabalenka said, radiating joy. “I’m enjoying my time here. Thank you so much for cheering me on. It’s just so good to be at home, and winning a title is amazing. To be able to attend other sports…I just feel so happy right now.”

Sabalenka recently claimed the Miami Open title, a significant victory as she closed out the hard-court season on a high note before heading into the clay-court swing.

“(I am) super happy. It was a very important win, a very important title, and I’m kind of speechless right now, to be honest,” she shared after the victory. “It means a lot.”

Reflecting on her motivation going into the final, Sabalenka added:

“I’m happy to finish the hard-court season on a big note. That’s why this final was very special and important—after those two tough losses, I couldn’t afford another one. I didn’t want that to get into my head. I stayed super focused, and I’m so happy to win this title.”

Between her performance on the court and a heartwarming moment with Beckham, Sabalenka continues to shine both as an athlete and a fan favorite.
