Aryna Sabalenka all smiles as David Beckham hands her custom Inter Miami jersey during MLS Visit
Aryna Sabalenka was in for a surprise as she received a custom-made Inter Miami jersey from none other than soccer legend David Beckham during her recent visit to the Chase Stadium in Florida. Beckham, one of the greatest soccer players of all time, is the co-owner of Inter Miami.
Sabalenka enjoyed an evening at the stadium after her stunning campaign at the Miami Open. The World No. 1 beat Jessica Pegula for the title in Miami to extend her brilliant start to the season. Such was the three-time Grand Slam champion’s form that she did not drop a set throughout the tournament and got past the likes of Danielle Collins, Qinwen Zheng, and Jasmine Paolini.
Fresh from her triumph, Sabalenka headed to the Chase Stadium and was greeted by Beckham, who gifted her Inter Miam’s iconic pink jersey. The jersey even had number 1 on the back, which Sabalenka was thrilled about.
In a video posted by the club’s Instagram handle on Sunday, the Belarusian was seen posing for pictures with Beckham before launching a few autographed tennis balls into the crowds.
“I love it, I love it so much. I’m enjoying my time here. Thank you so much for cheering me on. It’s just so good to be at home and winning a title is amazing. To be able to attend other sports…I just feel so happy right now,” Aryna Sabalenka said.
