Sabalenka wins first title since Australian Open

Aryna Sabalenka defeated Jessica Pegula in the Cincinnati Open final to win her first championship since the Australian Open in January.

It took the Belarusian 76 minutes to complete a 6-3 7-5 triumph, her 15th career title overall and her sixth at the WTA 1,000 level.

The American Pegula, who successfully defended her Canadian Open championship last week, lost her nine-match winning streak.
