Aryna Sabalenka’s Heartfelt Gesture Backfires as Unexpected Beer Spill by Fan Steals the Spotlight at the US Open

The ongoing US Open has become a hub of entertainment for tennis fans. Apart from matches, some hilarious moments have also received a space in the spotlight. Aryna Sabalenka encountered a similar moment when her post-victory stunt was overshadowed by an awkward incident. Fun in the beginning, the entire scene showcased the tennis fraternity’s fangirling over the Belarusian player.

Sabalenka enters the American Grand Slam final after defeating Emma Navarro 6-3, 7(7)- 6(2) in the quarterfinals for achieving this feat. After her victory, a delighted Sabalenka hit three tennis balls towards the gallery, sharing them with her supporters. This is when the we witnessed a bizarre, yet hilarious, moment. To catch the first ball, attendees caused a harmless accident.

When Sabalenka hit the first ball toward the audience, one of the attendees spilled their beer to catch it. This incident was caught on camera and the commentator highlighted how desperately Sabalenka followers tried to get a ball hit by their favorite tennis player. While the moment became a hit right after it happened, this is not the 2024 US Open’s first awkward moment among the attendees.

Days before last week, a fan shared another embarrassing moment when a spectator brought the Slam’s iconic drink, the Honey Deuce, to a spectator sitting next to him. However, she accepted it from another person sitting behind their seats. This moment became a subject of discussion as soon as the media captured it.

While the ongoing US Open has been in the spotlight for such funny incidents, this incident in Sabalenka’s case showed their admiration for the WTA star. The Belarusian player also dropped a funny motivation for the crowd representing the fun she had playing in the Flushing Meadows.

Aryna Sabalenka motivates people with an interesting offer to get their support

After winning her way to the finals by defeating Emma Navarro, Sabalenka talked about the supportive crowd in the Arthur Ashe Stadium. She especially mentioned her feelings when the crowd cheered for the American and hoped to see them support her in the finals. For that, Sabalenka dropped a lucrative offer to the attendees but jokingly.

“Drinks on me and please give me some support in the next match,” Sabalenka said in her post-victory interview. This offer brought a lot of clapping and cheering for Sabalenka from the stand which showed even the attendees enjoyed her performance very much. This Belarusian has offered a lot of faith in her skills after reaching at least the quarterfinals in her last eight Grand Slams. Now, it is time to see whether she shows equal magic in the finals.

Ahead of her finals in the American Slam, she has already received much love. If Sabalenka hits the finals with her usual style, we might see her winning her career’s third Grand Slam title soon.
