Sabalenka is continuing to carve her way through the field in trying to become the first woman since fellow Swiss star Martina Hingis to win three straight Australian Open titles. The Belarussian was looking pretty clean through the first four rounds, though she needed three sets to get by Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova in the quarterfinals.

For U.S. fans, the Australian Open will once again be complicated by the time difference between the continents, with day sessions starting at 7 p.m. ET the evening prior for American viewers. Are you ready to watch the 2025 Australian Open?
