Nick Kyrgios defeated Aryna Sabalenka 6-3, 6-3 in a 'Battle of the Sexes' exhibition match in Dubai. The event, featuring modified rules like a shorter court for Sabalenka and a one-serve limit, aimed to promote equality but drew criticism from fans and media. Many viewed the contest as a hollow spectacle, questioning its purpose and impact on the perception of men's and women's tennis, with some deeming it an insult to the sport's social message.
