Jessica Pegula vs Anna Kalinskaya prediction

Jessica Pegula hit back to defeat Magdalena Frech and reach the last eight in Washington.

The former champion turned on the after-burners to prevail 3-6 6-3 6-0 against the battling Pole.

The top seed will now take on Anna Kalinskaya for a sixth time after the world number 20 also fought back to edge Janice Tjen 1-6 6-3 7-6.

Pegula leads the head-to-head 4-1 and has won all three previous encounters on hardcourts. The very first of those was in Washington in 2019 as she posted a 6-3 3-6 6-1 success en route to the title.

Every one of their matches has gone three and it could be a case of déjà vu here, although we feel Jpeg’s greater consistency will get her through in the end.
