Australian Open 2023 Women's Singles Semifinals, Rybakina vs Azarenka, Sabalenka vs Linette Highlights: Elena Rybakina defeated Victoria Azarenka 7-6 (5), 6-3 to reach her second Grand Slam final in three Major appearances, after winning Wimbledon last year. The Kazakh's quick serve and powerful return had the match on her racquet throughout, and the occasion would have been more comfortable if her first-serve success rate had not dipped at the back end of the first set. In the second match of the night session on Rod Laver Arena, fifth seed Aryna Sabalenka defeated Poland’s Magda Linette 7-6 (1), 6-2 to reach her first Grand Slam final. Sabalenka is now 20-0 in sets in 2023. Linette did well to cope with Sabalenka's power in the first set, but Sabalenka overwhelmed her in the tiebreaker and did not look back thereafter.
