Aryna Sabalenka has won the 2024 Australian Open title after beating Qinwen Zheng on Saturday.
It is a second straight title in Melbourne for Sabalenka, who did not drop a set in seven matches.
She defeated first-time Grand Slam finalist Zheng 6-3 6-2.
Sabalenka has now become the first tennis player since countrywoman Victoria Azarenka 11 years ago to claim back-to-back titles in Australia.
Zheng is the first Chinese player to make it to a Grand Slam decider since Li Na won the title here a decade ago.
But she could not cope with Sabalenka’s ruthless power throughout the contest which lasted 76 minutes.
