""You've pushed me to be a better player,'' Sabalenka said during the ceremony, before adding about the crowd, 'You always bring a full stadium.'""
""It sucks not to come out with a better result, but I had a lot of joy this week,'' Gauff said to the crowd. 'You guys brought energy every day this week.'""
"Sabalenka broke Gauff in the first game of the third set, helped by a Gauff double fault and an unforced error. On break point, Sabalenka crunched a backhand winner."
Aryna Sabalenka defeated Coco Gauff 6-2, 4-6, 6-3 in the Miami Open women's singles final. This victory marked Sabalenka's second consecutive title at the tournament and made her the first player since Iga Swiatek to win both Indian Wells and Miami in the same season. Gauff struggled with her serve, recording seven double faults, while Sabalenka had none. Despite Gauff's efforts and crowd support, she could not maintain momentum in the final set, leading to Sabalenka's win.
