Clara Tauson vs Jessica Pegula prediction
Jessica Pegula gave rising starlet Iva Jovic a reality check as she cruised into the last eight in Dubai.
The fourth seed raced to a 6-2 6-4 win over her teenage compatriot to pocket the bragging rights and brush aside any suggestions a new era of American tennis is ready to immediately surge to the forefront.
Pegula now takes on Clara Tauson for the first time after the Dane impressed in a routine 6-4 6-2 triumph over Magda Linette.
The 12th seed has the power game to cause problems when she gets her Mojo flowing and she can claim that is the case so far this week. However, Pegula is so clutch at the moment, going deep in a succession of tournaments and only really coming unstuck against the elite.
If the American handles the weight of Tauson's forehand, she’s likely to have too much in her all-round game to be truly troubled.
