Jessica Pegula of the United States will eye her second straight final appearance on Saturday when she tackles Ekaterina Alexandrova of Russia in the semifinal of the 2025 Charleston Open.
Pegula rallied from a set down to carve out a 1-6 6-3 6-0 win over defending champion Danielle Rose Collins. Pegula, who has now owned 15 of her last 17 matches, dug deep from her bag of tricks to turn things around. She won 25 points off her first serves and broke Collins five times, including three in the deciding set.
Alexandrova barged into the semifinal with an emphatic 6-1 6-4 win over Qinwen Zheng of China. Hot off a 6-1, 6-2 demolition of Diana Shnaider of Russia, Alexandrova pressed the action on her Chinese opponent, winning 79 percent of her first serves and breaking three times. With the victory, the Russian secured her third quarterfinal appearance in this year's WTA Tour.
