Though Pegula has made three Miami Open semifinals in four years, she has never gotten this far. Now she goes for her fourth WTA 1000 (point) title.

It’s a familiar final line-up at the WTA 1000 in Miami as Aryna Sabalenka and Jessica Pegula already battled each other in championship matches in Cincinnati and at the US Open last year. Both have picked up their form so much in the United States over the last few weeks and will now clash for another trophy on American soil.
