Aryna Sabalenka tries to ‘bribe’ US Open crowd to win their support against Emma Navarro
Aryna Sabalenka joked about a new way to try to sway a crowd to cheer for her during a U.S. Open match: Bribe them with booze.
A year ago, Sabalenka lost to American Coco Gauff in the final at Flushing Meadows as a partisan crowd loudly backed the champion. Now Sabalenka will face another American, Emma Navarro, in the U.S. Open semifinals on Friday
