Sabalenka advances to Adelaide International women’s final

ADELAIDE, Australia (AP) — Aryna Sabalenka has advanced to the Adelaide International women’s singles final with a 6-3, 6-2 win over Irina-Camelia Begu. The world’s  fifth-ranked player had five double-faults but finished the match with her sixth ace. Sabalenka won more than 80% of her points on her first serve and controlled the match from the baseline. She hasn’t dropped a set this tournament. Sabalenka will meet either teenage qualifier Linda Noskova or top-seeded Ons Jabeur in the final on Sunday. Novak Djokovic was scheduled to play Daniil Medvedev in a night men’s semifinal.
