Jessica Pegula wants more. The world number 6 is reaching the final stretch of the season with a high level on the court. In the semifinals of Wuhan WTA 1000, she defeated the indomitable queen of the women's circuit, Aryna Sabalenka, in a comeback victory (2-6, 6-4, 7-6). With this historic triumph, she advances to the tournament final where she will face her compatriot, Coco Gauff.

This victory not only ended Sabalenka's streak of 20 consecutive wins but also marked Pegula's 50th victory in 2025. This record is noteworthy as, at 31 years old, she becomes the oldest player to achieve this milestone since Serena Williams in 2015.

- Pegula Never Gave Up

"I can't believe I turned that around and won. I was clearly very nervous trying to serve; I lost rhythm, lost timing, tried to go too far, but I recovered quickly in the tiebreak. I stayed super present, played the next point, kept moving forward, and focused on my strategy and what I needed to concentrate on."

I'm very proud of myself. I've played a lot of tennis in recent weeks, so many three-set matches... I feel very strong right now and I'm making the most of it.
