Jessica Pegula is set to face Aryna Sabalenka in the US Open women’s singles final, marking Pegula's first appearance in a Grand Slam final after surpassing the quarter-finals for the first time. Pegula, the sixth seed, aims to replicate fellow American Coco Gauff's success at last year's tournament, while Sabalenka, ranked second, is vying for her third major title after winning the Australian Open twice. Both players know each other well, having faced off seven times previously, with Sabalenka winning the latest encounter at the Cincinnati Open. This final is significant for American tennis, as it is the first time since 2002 that players from the U.S. will compete in both singles finals at the US Open. The match will take place at Arthur Ashe Stadium in New York, with Pegula hoping to leverage the support of the home crowd against the pressure of Sabalenka's experience. The championship is expected to draw considerable attention as both athletes chase their maiden US Open title.
