Aryna Sabalenka, who is 27 and from Belarus, is the current World No. 1 while also being a three-time titleholder in 2025, having won the Brisbane, Miami, and Madrid titles. She is known for an explosive serve and relentless ground strokes across all surfaces, yet she has not won a grass-court crown as of now. Sabalenka’s 2025 record currently stands at 40-7 with an undefeated grass record of 3-0 at Berlin. In the latest win on June 19, 2025, Sabalenka defeated Rebeka Masarova 6-2, 7-6(6) in the Berlin Round of 16, serving 8 aces but also double-faulting thrice; she won 71% of her first-serve points and capitalized on 4 of 7 break-point opportunities. On grass this year, she is winning 75% of service games, but is below par on return, winning only 40% of the games from that end, further establishing herself as the boss on both fronts. Sabalenka sailed smoothly in Berlin, but the aggressive verbal-batting contest mid-match at the net with Masarova started chatter on X, with @TennisFanatic12 tweeting, ”Aryna’s intensity is unmatched, but she’s gotta stay cool against Rybakina.” Also, she has been supported by Andy Roddick as the Wimbledon favorite, according to ESPN (18 June 2025), with Roddick referring to her as the "clear-cut favorite" for the upcoming Grand Slam.

She has won one title in 2025 at Strasbourg and favors fast courts that compliment her flat, penetrating shots. She carries this year's record 29-11 and 3-1 on grass, with the last defeat coming on June 13, 2025, in the Queen's Club quarterfinals against Tatjana Maria, 4-6, 6-7(4). Berlin proved somewhat kind to her on June 19, 2025, as she walked away with a 6-4, 7-6(5) win over Katerina Siniakova: 10 aces, 2 double faults, 76% on first-serve points, and 2 of 4 on break points-conversion. Being served from in 2025, she was 80% on service game and 35% on return games, highlighting the power of her serve. After the win over Siniakova, Rybakina told Tennis Gazette (19 June 2025), "Aryna and I both hate defending. It’s about who strikes first." A tweet from @RybakinaStan read: "Elena’s serve is a weapon on grass. Sabalenka better be ready." In May 2025, Rybakina's run to the Strasbourg title, including conquering Liudmila Samsonova 6-1, 6-7(2), 6-1, was attesting to her clutch-game under pressure, as Sportskeeda reported. Rybakina's strong grass-court game makes her a serious contender.
