WORLD NUMBER TWO Aryna Sabalenka intends to play in the Miami Open this week following the death of her boyfriend Konstantin Koltsov.

Two-time Grand Slam winner Sabalenka arrived to practice at the Miami Open venue at Hard Rock Stadium early on Tuesday afternoon and later organisers said she had not asked to withdraw and was “intending to play.” American Jessica Pegula said that the players were aware of the tragic news and offering support to Sabalenka.
