Battle of the Sexes: Aryna Sabalenka vs. Nick Kyrgios Preview

For the first time since 2023, there will be a fascinating Battle of the Sexes staged on the tennis schedule in late December. Aryna Sabalenka is the world’s top-ranked female player, having won four Grand Slam titles.

The world number one’s confidence will be high after landing the US Open title at the end of the WTA Tour in 2025, while she also reached the final of the Tour Finals last month.

However, Nick Kyrgios will be the favored player based on the odds available. The Australian 30-year-old is a seven-time winner on the ATP Tour, but he endured a frustrating 2025 season due to injury issues. Despite that, he is a one-time Grand Slam finalist, having lost to Novak Djokovic in the Wimbledon showpiece back in 2022.

The match hasn’t made all positive headlines, with tennis great Billie Jean King questioning the need for a clash of sexes, indicating that the matchup could do more harm than good for the women’s game.

Battle of the Sexes: Aryna Sabalenka vs. Nick Kyrgios Pick

Kyrgios’ injury troubles throughout 2025 mean that it is somewhat surprising to see the Australian listed as the favorite. Sabalenka has been the dominant force on the WTA Tour, and her power ensures that she will have the tools in her arsenal to cause major issues for Kyrgios. Therefore, at the prices, the world number one female player is the preferred selection.
