Aryna Sabalenka reached a third straight US Open final after beating Jessica Pegula 7–5, 6–2 in Thursday’s semifinal in New York. 🎾
The two-time defending champion extended her US Open winning streak to 19 matches. She did not drop serve and faced only one break point against Pegula, according to The Guardian.
Sabalenka’s victory continued a run of three consecutive US Open meetings with Pegula. She beat the American in the 2024 final and in the 2025 semifinal.
The world No. 1 will play Coco Gauff or Elena Rybakina in Saturday’s final, seeking a third consecutive title at Flushing Meadows. 🏆
