Belarusian professional tennis player Aryna Sabalenka was relatively unknown until 2017. But the 25-year-old has marked her territory in the tennis world. According to the Women’s Tennis Association, she is rated as the top player in the world in both women’s singles and doubles. But that is not all. With 19 titles in her hand—13 in singles and six in doubles—she is a force to be reckoned with. Her perfect display of athleticism has earned her praise from many stars. But recently, the CEO of Barstool Sports has given her a new title, one that has ‘queen’ written all over it.

As a man who prefers to give his views on sports and pop culture, Portnoy doesn’t shy away from appreciating talent when he sees one. It all started when Portnoy put a big wager on the tennis prodigy. He impressed Sabalenka, who in turn invited him to watch the final match in her box. After putting his $50,000 belief in her, the two have reunited in Miami. This time, Portnoy has crowned her with another verbal appreciation.
