Sabalenka seeks bounce back in Toronto after Wimbledon exit

Summary

Aryna Sabalenka begins her North American hard court season at the WTA 1000 tournament in Toronto. The world number one is looking to recover after being eliminated in the round of 16 at Wimbledon, where she faced Naomi Osaka. With her ranking at stake, Sabalenka aims to extend her impressive record of 23 wins in 24 hard court matches this year. She must reach at least the round of 16 to maintain her position atop the rankings, as Elena Rybakina could overtake her by winning the tournament. Sabalenka's draw includes notable players like Jessica Pegula and Iga Swiatek, who are also looking to regain their form after disappointing performances in recent tournaments.
