The Madison Keys who will play two-time defending champion Aryna Sabalenka for the title at the Australian Open on Saturday night is not the same Madison Keys who was the runner-up at the U.S.

Madison Keys pulled off a stunning upset of No. 2 Iga Swiatek in a high-intensity, high-quality Australian Open women's singles semi-final on Thursday (January 23, 2025), saving a match point along the way.

Not that Iga Swiatek needs the help during her dominant run through the Australian Open so far, but she did get the benefit of a no-call when she failed to reach a ball hit by her opponent Emma Navarro before it bounced twice.

Madison Keys stuns world number two Iga Swiatek to set up an Australian Open final against two-time defending champion Aryna Sabalenka.

Swiatek will face No. 19 Madison Keys of the U.S. on Thursday night for a berth in the final. The other women’s semifinal is No. 1 Aryna Sabalenka, the two-time defending champion, against her good friend, No. 11 Paula Badosa.

Madison Keys saved a match point and upset No. 2 Iga Swiatek 5-7, 6-1, 7-6 (10-8) in a high-intensity Australian Open semifinal to reach a Grand Slam title match for the second time in her career.

Keys is not only in the mix, she has a real chance in the final with a power game that is very similar to that of Sabalenka's.
