Coco Gauff arrives at the Cincinnati Open with an outstanding 2026 season behind her but no title to show for it, while Aryna Sabalenka says she relishes the pressure of being the world's top-ranked player.
AIVIASPORT is dedicated to women's sport, providing comprehensive coverage of the world's biggest competitions. We follow the leading leagues, tours, and tournaments throughout the season with the latest news, fixtures, results, standings, rankings, transfers, and analysis.

In tennis, we cover the WTA Tour and all four Grand Slam tournaments, while our golf coverage focuses on the LPGA Tour, the Ladies European Tour (LET), and the sport's major championships.
From domestic leagues to the biggest international events, VIASPORT brings together women's football, tennis, and golf in one dedicated destination.
Coco Gauff has enjoyed an impressive 2026 campaign - reaching finals at both the Rome and Miami Masters events, progressing to the quarter-finals or beyond at the Australian Open and Wimbledon, and making the semi-finals of the Canadian Open before falling to Elena Rybakina.
Yet for all that consistency, the American remains without a title this season. Ranked world number four on the WTA Tour, Gauff made clear at the Cincinnati Open Media Day that lifting a trophy before the year is out is her primary objective.
Cincinnati holds a special place in Gauff's career. It was here in 2023 that she claimed her maiden Masters crown. The record since, however, has been patchy - two first-round exits and two second-round defeats, plus a quarter-final run last year that ended at the hands of Jasmine Paolini.
She will be keen to rediscover that 2023 magic on home soil.
World number one Aryna Sabalenka struck a typically bullish tone, acknowledging that every opponent wants to topple her but insisting she thrives under that scrutiny. Caty McNally, meanwhile, spoke of the excitement of competing in her home city, and Iga Swiatek outlined how she has been training since Wimbledon.
Gauff herself reflected on growing comfort on court and her development as a player - a sign, perhaps, that the best is still to come.
