Madison Key's husband Bjorn Fratangelo drops 2-word reaction after American reaches second Major final at Australian Open

Madison Keys defeated Iga Swiatek in a thrilling three-set semifinal of the 2025 Australian Open. After the match, the American player's coach and husband, Bjorn Fratangelo, shared a two-word reaction celebrating the victory.

In one of the tournament's best matches, which spanned two hours and 36 minutes, Keys won against the second seed in the third set tiebreaker after saving a match point on her opponent's serve.

The 19th seed lost the first set 5-7 in a close contest. However, she recovered and dominantly won the second set 6-1. The third set continued on serve, with both players saving multiple break points. However, the Pole broke in the 11th game, and with 6-5 ahead, she served for the match.

From that improbable situation, Keys saved a match point, broke back, and played an exceptional tiebreak, winning 10-8 and reaching her second Major final.

After the contest, Bjorn Fratangelo posted a two-word message on his Instagram story, celebrating the team that worked behind the scenes to help Keys succeed at the highest possible level.

"Best Team," Fratangelo posted on Instagram.
