Both players had a decent run at the tournament. However, the level of competition was generally more serious for Jabeur, given her victories over Bencic and Halep. What’s more, Ons defeated Pegula in their last two head-to-head encounters.
In Dubai this year, Jabeur has only allowed Pegula to win four games.
Jessica Pegula delighted her fans and managed to make it to the final in Madrid. Interestingly, the American narrowly escaped the competition in the first round. In the game against Camila Giorgi, she managed to get away from the match ball (7-5, 2-6, 7-5). Undoubtedly, this win boosted Jessica’s confidence in herself and in her abilities as she defeated all the other contestants in two sets.
Pegula had beaten Kaia Kanepi (6-3, 6-3), Bianca Andreescu (7-5, 6-1), Sara Sorribes Tormo (6-4, 6-2) and Teichmann (6-3, 6-4).
Ons Jabeur is playing in Madrid for only the second time in her career. A year ago, her tournament journey ended at the 1/8 finals. Today we see the Tunisian in the final.
The tenth-ranked player in the world has had a difficult start in the Spanish capital. In the first round, she had to play a tie-break against Jasmine Paolini (7-6, 6-1). In the second round, it was a close game against Varvara Gracheva, but Ons pulled out a victory (7-5, 0-6, 6-4). Next, she defeated Belinda Bencic (6-2, 3-6, 6-2) and Simona Halep (6-3, 6-2). Obviously, as the tournament progressed, Jabeur got better and left no chance for Ekaterina Alexandrova (6-2, 6-3) in the semi-finals.
In the last three head-to-head meetings, less than 9.5 games have been played in the first set. We offer to bet on “1st Set Games – Under 9.5” with the odds of 1.72
