Jessica Pegula of the United States will go for her second final appearance on the WTA Tour as she battles Ajla Tomljanovic of Australia in the semifinal of the 2025 ATX Open on Saturday. After dismantling Nuria Parrizas-Diaz of Spain 6-1, 6-3 in the second round, Pegula kept her dominant form in a lopsided 6-2, 6-2 win over fellow veteran Anna Blinkova of Russia on Friday. Pegula, the 2024 US Open runner-up, controlled the flow of the match by winning 77 percent of her first serves and converting 5 of 7 breakpoint chances. Ranked No.4 in the world, the American is aiming to hoist her first trophy in the 2025 WTA Tour season. Meanwhile, Tomljanovic came out as the winner of a three-set slugfest with Ena Shibahara of the United States, 7-5 3-6 7-6(8). The Aussie delivered 11 aces and generated 46 points off her first serves. Tomljanovic, who had survived another three-set battle with Jodie Anne Burrage of Great Britain in the previous round, played through fatigue and shaky nerves to outlast Shibahara in an 18-point showdown in the third-set tiebreaker.
