World number 1 Aryna Sabalenka accidentally hits a photographer while playing football with Ons Jabeur and some young fans. The Belarusian tiger shows her dangerous side off the court as well and straight away apologizes to her after the incident.
The WTA Finals is just around the corner and we are already seeing some WTA Stars enjoy their time at Riyadh just before the tournament. We have recently seen Aryna Sabalenka and her best friend and 3-time Grand Slam finalist Ons Jabeur playing football with some young fans just ahead of the tournament and were having a lot of fun with them as well.
There is no doubt that Sabalenka is one of the most dangerous players on the court known for her powerful forehands and explosive game. However, the Belarusian tiger has shown that dangerous side during a game of football as well. Sabalenka was seen striking the ball and she accidentally hit the photographer who was next to the goal. Sabalenka went to apologize to her as soon as possible. In the end, we still have to give props to the photographer who still stood up strong after suffering from a blow from the football.
Though this was a dangerous incident for the women with the camera, the worried look on Sabalenka’s face still won everyone’s hearts as she straight away went and checked on her. There were also some fun and games where Jabeur ended with the line saying ” Tell her you don’t have insurance”, but it turns out Sabalenka is as fierce on the football pitch as much as she is on the tennis court. These are the moments which show the human side of our favorite athletes.
