Aryna Sabalenka is bringing 23 carats of luck to the French Open. The top seed revealed a custom diamond necklace stack she will debut during her opening match against Jessica Bouzas Maneiro.
The four-time Grand Slam Champion is yet to win a Roland-Garros title. The luxury retail company Material Good has made sure she looks stellar in her opening match and brings a good luck charm with her.
"So excited to reveal my @materialgood jewelery set for @rolandgarros," She said via her Instagram account. "Obsessed is an understatement, and I can’t wait to wear these beauties on the court."
Sabalenka has won a total of 30 titles, including 24 titles in singles and six titles in doubles. She has made a total of eight appearances at the Roland Garros so far.
Her Roland Garros record has been tremendous so far, but despite being a top seed, the title still awaits her. She was the runner-up at the 2025 edition and reached the semi-finals and the quarter-finals at the 2023 and 2024 editions, respectively.
Sabalenka won the 2023 and 2024 editions of the Australian Open. Additionally, she also grabbed the US Open title in 2024 along with the Australian Open in the same year, and also won the US Open one more time last year, in 2025.
But what could her strengths be to win her first-ever Roland-Garros title?
What Could Give Sabalenka An Edge At The Roland Garros
Sabalenka has some strong points to take over the title this season. Her explosive playing style relies on a dominant serve and a powerful forehand.
In her early years, Sabalenka made some unforced errors, but with coach Anton Dubrov, she has improved significantly and can take huge risks in-game to secure points.
She also has the ability to exert pressure on her opponents, forcing them to make mistakes. Also, her precise two-handed backhand shot makes the rallies short and is characteristic of her playing style.
Her aggressive power and bold style are the primary factors that could finally secure her the title.
She has had great rivalries with players like Iga Swiatek, Coco Gauff, and Elena Rybakina, and will look to defeat them all this time around.
