Tennis players usually do not get enough time to regroup themselves. The calendar is beyond hectic as most of the top players are expected to play almost every week in different parts of the country. However, the stars usually find a little off-time right after the Slams. Those two-week tournaments can be mentally draining. Before the stars gear up for the lead-up to the next Slam, they usually go on a small vacation.
Similarly, Aryna Sabalenka has flown to Miami following a Wimbledon heartbreak. The World number 2 faced a heart-wrenching exit against Ons Jabeur in the semi-finals of the Championships. Since then, she did not speak much on social media until yesterday, Aryna dropped her vacation updates.

The world number 2 has been spending her off-time in Miami. A massive North American hard-court season knocks on her door but she does have a couple of weeks before she has to step on the court again. It seems like the vacation is helping Sabalenka get her mind off things. Her recent social media updates show that the Belarusian is loving her vacation.
Sabalenka posted a few stories on Instagram yesterday from Miami. One of them caught fans’ eye when she donned a deep blue outfit while doing her best dolphin impersonation.

The fans were also overjoyed to finally hear from Sabalenka. After a tough loss at Wimbledon, she took time to get back on social media. It’s quite natural that the players would rather spend some time alone and prioritize their mental well-being, especially for Sabalenka considering how important the next month is going to be for her.

A massive North-American swing coming up for Aryna Sabalenka
Aryna Sabalenka missed out on claiming the world number 1 rankings at Wimbledon. However, she has the chance to sit on the throne next month. Two big WTA 1000 events in Cincinnati and Canada followed up by the much-awaited US Open will open the doors to glory for the Belarusian. She loves playing on hard courts and has beaten Iga Swiatek and Elena Rybakina – the other members of the WTA Big 3 frequently on cement.
