Jessica Pegula vs Diana Shnaider prediction
Jessica Pegula’s win on Saturday night brought her impressive match record to 12-1 on American hard courts this year. She's been in impeccable form in New York so far and has been extremely clinical from the back of the court. She's dominated proceedings with her all-round game and has also managed to serve incredibly.
Shnaider, meanwhile, continues to impress everybody watching in this breakthrough season of hers. Her form in New York has been especially good. She has been a powerhouse on serve, effective from the back of the court, and exceptionally proficient at the net.
Pegula's best finish at the US Open was to the quarterfinals two years ago. She made the fourth round last year. Shnaider on the contrary is taking part in her first-ever US Open and is making her fourth round debut at a Grand Slam.
The odds are in Pegula's favor heading into the contest given her superior expeirence and their past match records. Shnaider, however, is very capable of pulling an upset with the way she's been playing.
Pick: Pegula in three sets.
