Sabalenka is set to return to action at the Wuhan Open, which kicks off on Oct. 6. The Belarusian has made three appearances at the WTA 1000 tournament (2018, 2019, and 2024) and is undefeated. She will also be looking to win her 10th WTA 1000 title.

The World No. 1 has not played since registering a straight-set win over Amanda Anisimova in the US Open final last month, which marked her fourth Grand Slam singles title. She withdrew from the WTA 1000 China Open in Beijing, citing a minor injury.

Former Russian player Yevgeny Kafelnikov has showered praise on Aryna Sabalenka, particularly her powerful serve. He believes the Belarusian is a level above other top WTA players, including Iga Swiatek, Elena Rybakina, and Coco Gauff.

"When Sabalenka comes out against Swiatek, it’s a completely different story to what we see happen with Swiatek against other opponents before, where she dictated the style of play, she dictated the power of the shots, and now everything is going the other way," he said on the '‘First&Red" YouTube show. "Aryna holds her serve without too much effort. She serves, I’m not afraid to say it, more powerfully than some men.

The two-time Major winner added:

"Sabalenka is far ahead of everyone. Neither Elena Rybakina, nor Iga Swiatek, nor Amanda Anisimova, nor Coco Gauff can compete with her. She’s surpassed them all."

On Monday, Sabalenka became only the 10th WTA player to record 50 consecutive weeks as the World No. 1. She is 2,792 points ahead of second-ranked Swiatek.
