H2H: Emma Raducanu (WR 60) Jessica Pegula (WR 4)
Tournament Previous Best R2 (2022) SF (2022, 2023)
1st Serve Return Points Won % 38.4 38.8
Return Points Won % 45.4 45.4
Break Point Conversion % 51.5 45.9
Break Points Saved % 60.3 57.8
Overall Service Points Won % 56.8 61.0

Raducanu finds her stats pretty tight to those of Pegula, despite the American having been far more consistent over 2025 than the Brit. That would suggest this should be far less of a rout than you would expect given Pegula’s rank.

 

 

Playing Styles & Prediction

Strong ball-striking and baseline rallies will again be par for the course, as both excel at trying to take control of the rallies from the get-go. Raducanu will once more have to come up with ways to outsmart her opponent.

This match will be less about flair and more about who can keep their foot on the gas the longest, and their previous encounters have all be hard-fought sets. However on the hard courts and on home soil – you would have to give the advantage to Pegula.

Prediction: Pegula in three sets.
