Pegula Knocks Out Sabalenka to Set up Berlin Final with Noskova

Jessica Pegula reached the Berlin Open final after overturning Sabalenka and finishing with a 6-0 third set.

  • On Saturday, American Jessica Pegula defeated world number one Aryna Sabalenka 6-4, 6-7, 6-0 in the Berlin Open semi-finals at Steffi Graf Stadium.
  • Pegula dominated early, capitalizing on Sabalenka's ten unforced errors in the first three games, though Sabalenka held a 9-3 career record against the American in their first grass-court meeting.
  • Following a rain delay at 3-1 in the second set, Sabalenka rallied to win the tiebreak before Pegula reasserted control in the deciding set, closing the match 6-0 after two hours and 13 minutes.
  • The 2024 champion Pegula will bid for her 12th WTA title in Sunday's final against either Czech Linda Noskova or Filipino wildcard Alexandra Eala.
  • This defeat impacts Sabalenka's grass-court build-up to Wimbledon, where she seeks her first title; the Belarusian has won four Grand Slam titles, but all were on hard courts.
