Jessica Pegula Advances US Open Women’s Semifinals Undropped Sets

At the 2025 US Open, American tennis star Jessica Pegula continued her impressive form by reaching the semifinals for the second consecutive year without dropping a set, a feat not achieved since Serena Williams between 2011 and 2014. Pegula's dominant run included a straight-sets quarterfinal victory over two-time major champion Barbora Krejčíková, who had just survived a dramatic comeback win in the previous round. In contrast, fellow American Emma Navarro exited early, underscoring Pegula as the standout American heiress in the tournament. The women's semifinals set up a rematch between Pegula and Aryna Sabalenka, with Sabalenka holding a 7-2 head-to-head advantage, though Pegula narrowly lost the previous year's final in close sets. Despite Sabalenka being considered the tour's best hard-court player and having benefited from extra rest due to her quarterfinal opponent's withdrawal, Pegula's flawless performance and resilience make the upcoming match highly anticipated. The US Open continues to highlight the depth and talent of American tennis players on the world stage.
