Aryna Sabalenka’s awkward moment after dropping profanity on live broadcast

Aryna Sabalenka has laughed off an awkward post-match interview, after she repeated a profanity that she used on the court during their World Tennis League match.

The world No.1 let the swear word slip on a live Stan broadcast, alongside No.15 Paula Badosa.

Sabalenka let a Spanish profanity slip and when asked what exactly that word meant, she made a similar blunder.

"I was just showing off my Spanish skills,m come on," Sabalenka said live on Stan.

She then went on to say the word again, before laughing and stepping away from the microphone.

"You have to teach me better stuff than p–a," she said.

It left tennis commentator Robbie Koenig apologising to the audience via the Stan coverage.

"Apologies for the colourful language," he said.

Sabalenka, alongside Mirra Andreeva, defeated world No.2 Iga Swiatek and Badosa.

Their match followed Swiatek being handed a one-month ban after testing positive to the banned substance trimetazidine.

Sabalenka remained coy when asked about the ban, which has been criticised for its modest length.

"People are really used to overreacting before figuring stuff out, so I don't want to leave any comments," she said.

"I believe in clean sport, and there's nothing more I can add."
