Jessica Pegula - Aryna Sabalenka: Form Analysis
Jessica Pegula’s progress takes her to a first-ever final at a major. The American, who has been in excellent form in New York, defeated Karolina Muchova in three sets. She dug deep to come from a set down to seal the victory.
It was the first time in the tournament that she had lost a set. Before arriving in the year’s final, Pegula had never progressed past the quarter-finals at this stage. She had suffered six quarter-final losses, with one being at this event two years ago.
To break the streak, she produced her biggest win of the season, a 2-0 success over world number one Iga Swiatek. Pegula has now won 1300 points by advancing to the championship match. This has enabled her move three places in the live ranking and back up to third.
Though she hasn’t dominated against Sabalenka, Pegula has registered both of her wins in this matchup on hard courts.
Crowd favorite Pegula is looking to win the US Open on her first final appearance.
Aryna Sabalenka is back in the final at Flushing Meadows and fired up for a second Grand Slam title. She finished as runner-up last year and will be determined to not suffer the same fate twice in succession.
To get to the final, the world number two overcame the challenge of American Emma Navarro in straight sets. She has now won 11 successive matches, all on hard courts. This run began in Cincinnati where she saw off Pegula in the final in straight sets.
Coupling this impressive streak with her dominance against the American, Sabalenka has a big opportunity to emerge champion here. It will, however, not be a walk in the park given her struggles in tour finals this season.
Sabalenka, who has dropped just one set in New York, lost three of the five tour finals she has played in 2024.

Jessica Pegula & Aryna Sabalenka Squad Analysis
Sabalenka is a strong baseline player who possesses a fierce serve and equally powerful groundstrokes. In her most recent victory against Pegula, she capitalized on that, hitting 67% of her first serves and 94% with her second. We should expect to see more of this as she seeks her first US Open title.
The 2024 US Open title match could go down to players' individual strengths.
Pegula, who is seeking her maiden major success, is also a strong baseliner and plays with powerful groundstrokes. She also possesses a strong serve and in her last matchup with Sabalenka converted 59% of her first serves. Due to her short stature, Pegula is very quick on her feet and covers ground really well.
