Aryna Sabalenka will open Friday's play at the Miami Open against Spain's Paula Badosa - just days after the death of her former boyfriend Konstantin Koltsov at the age of 42. Sabalenka said her 'heart is broken' following the death of her former boyfriend Koltsov. Former ice hockey player Koltsov, who played in the NHL for the Pittsburgh Penguins, died in Miami aged 42 on Monday in what police described as an 'apparent suicide'.
'That for me is a little bit shocking also to go through that because at the end she's my best friend and I don't want her to suffer. It's a very tough situation. 'At the same point, playing against her, it's also uncomfortable. But I don't really want to talk about it because I said I'm not going to talk about it. She's my best friend and I promised that. 'She's a strong woman. I think she will get the power from somewhere.
