Sabalenka boasts an impressive 80% win rate in her last five matches, indicating strong form heading into this hard court matchup. In contrast, Pegula's average serve metrics reveal vulnerability: she has a lower first-serve percentage (63.3%) and a second-serve points won rate of just 45.7%. Sabalenka's aggressive playstyle could exploit these weaknesses, especially in critical moments. Moreover, Sabalenka's potential to save break points (56.6% in her last five matches) further enhances her chances against Pegula, who struggles to capitalize under pressure, as indicated by her 49.3% break point save rate. Overall, Sabalenka's recent dominance coupled with Pegula's inconsistencies on serve makes this a favorable matchup for the Belarusian.
