For the second year in a row, an American woman has reached the U.S. Open final.
No. 6 seed Jessica Pegula, a native of Buffalo, New York, will play in her first career Grand Slam final against No. 2 seed Aryna Sabalenka at the U.S. Open women's singles final on Saturday in New York City. It will mark a rematch of last month's Cincinnati Open final, where Sabalenka defeated Pegula 6-3, 7-5.
"It will be a rematch of Cincinnati, so hopefully I can get some revenge out here," Pegula said Thursday.
Pegula is not the only one looking for redemption. Two-time major champion Sabalenka reached the U.S. Open final last year, but was defeated by American Coco Gauff. She's looking to pick up her third hardcourt major title after winning the Australian Open in back-to-back years (2023, 2024).
