She is preparing to chase a rare honour in tennis later this month lets Saba-look Three-time Grand Slam winner Aryna Sabalenka drives fans wild as she poses topless ahead of US Open ARYNA SABALENKA stunned fans as she posed topless in a new post to her Instagram. In the post, Sabalenka can be seen lounging in swimwear by the pool, winking at the camera and showing off her tan lines in the risque topless image. 6 Aryna Sabalenka shocked fans with a topless photo in her latest Instagram post Credit: INSTAGRAM @arynasabalenka 6 It was just one in a series of revealing images the tennis star posted to her Instagram Credit: INSTAGRAM @arynasabalenka 6 The 27-year-old is in Miami preparing to compete in the US Open later this month Credit: INSTAGRAM @arynasabalenka The tennis star posted the pictures to her 3.3million followers captioned "A day spent in the sun." The post is just the latest in a string of revealing images shared to her account as she enjoys a rest between Grand Slam tournaments. The world No.1 women's tennis player is now sunning it up in Miami as the US Open approaches. Sabalenka will hope to add to her existing tally of three Grand Slam victories with a victory in New York later this month. The 27-year-old narrowly missed out on a shot at making it four at last month's Wimbledon tournament. She battled past British tennis hero Emma Raducanu in the third round, and looked good value to go all the way. 6 The post continues the trend of risque images posted by the Belarusian Credit: INSTAGRAM @arynasabalenka 6 Sabalenka released another set of swimwear snaps in late July flaunting her luxurious holiday travels Credit: INSTAGRAM @arynasabalenka 6 Sabalenka is recovering after a Wimbledon tournament that saw her knock out Emma Raducanu before losing in the semi-finals to Amanda Anisimova Credit: Getty Her shock semi-final exit to Amanda Anisimova was the third time she had made it to the semis at the tournament, losing on all three occasions. Anisimova would be absolutely crushed in the final by Sabalenka's rival at the summit of the WTA rankings, Polish star Iga Świątek. Sabalenka has better form at the US Open, and is set to try and defend her title when the competition kicks off on August 24th. The Belarusian narrowly saw off American Jessica Pegula to win last year's edition of the tournament. Angry Aryna Sabalenka opens up on 'hate relationship' with Wimbledon and battling demons telling her to smash racquets If her demeanour on social media is anything to go by, Sabalenka is feeling relaxed ahead of her return to the court.

Brit boy, 15, sneaks onto flight to ITALY after getting separated from parents while flying home to UK after Spain hols

Cops were baffled by how the teen managed to dodge past security without a valid ticket FLIGHT PANIC Brit boy, 15, sneaks onto flight to ITALY after getting separated from parents while flying home to UK after Spain hols A Brit teenage snuck onto a flight to Italy after getting separated from his parents who were flying back to the UK from Spain. The panicked couple sounded the alarm after losing sight of the 15-year-old at Menorca Airport, ahead of their scheduled Tui flight back to London Stansted. 2 The boy boarded the wrong flight at Menorca Airport Credit: Getty 2 Milan. Italy – May 23, 2019: Interior of Malpensa Airport. Airport Hall of Departures. Credit: Getty Do you know anything about the teenager who boarded the wrong flight? Email Police checked CCTV cameras and discovered the boy had managed to get past security and board a flight around heading to Milan Malpensa Airport. His mum jumped onto a later flight to Italy and was due to be reunited with her son today. Spanish police confirmed today they had helped locate the youngster after he became separated from his mum and dad. A source familiar with the extraordinary sequence said: 'They were due to catch Tui flight BY5107 back to London Stansted Airport together at 9.25 this morning but became separated. 'The boy's parents ended up reporting him missing and that led to police intervention.' A spokesman for the National Police in Majorca said: 'Officers checked cameras in the departures area and saw the teenager had managed to get onto a flight to Milan. 'The airport had already activated its missing child alert system but it was deactivated after it was confirmed the lad was on his way to Italy.' It was not immediately clear this afternoon how the youngster, who according to local reports may suffer from autism, managed to board EasyJet flight U23762. Despite a rigorous boarding pass check protocol, he managed to get onto the plane which departed at 9.29am on Monday morning without a valid ticket. More to follow...
