Liudmila Samsonova vs Jessica Pegula Prediction & Picks - WTA Dubai Tennis Championships
by Lou Aguila | in Tennis Picks
Jessica Pegula is set for a challenging second-round duel with Liudmila Samsonova of Russia at the Dubai Duty Free Open on Tuesday. Pegula hopes to follow up her quarterfinal stint at the 2025 WTA Qatar Open with another terrific run at the Dubai Duty Free Open, the second of back-to-back WTA 1000 events in the Middle East. The 2024 US Open runner-up secured a bye to the second round for being one of the top-seeded players in the tournament. Samsonova made it to the second round after overcoming a tough first-round foe in Anastasia Pavlyunchenkova 6-2 6-2. The Russian hasn’t accomplished strong results in her previous tournaments since reaching the semis of the 2025 Adelaide International, where she lost to the eventual winner and Australian Open champion Madison Keys.
