Pegula Primed for more Success
Jessica Pegula ended last season with a career-best tally of 36-18 and a place in the top 20. In comparison to her previous yearly spells, that one was by the best as it positioned her nicely for further glory.
Although the 27-year-old American didn’t quite win a title, she was a quarterfinalist in the Australian Open, Dubai, Indian Wells, and Italian Open, and a semifinalist in the Canadian Open.
So far in 2022, she started with back to back first-round exits in Melbourne 2 and Sydney. However, in the first major of the year, Pegula was one of the final eight – a feat she achieved after beating Maria Sakkari. Ultimately, she was beaten by the top seed Ashleigh Barty.
That performance propelled Pegula to the world number 16 position. In Dubai, she finds herself in a precarious half with the likes of Ons Jabeur, Simona Halep, Paula Badosa, and Aryna Sabalenka all lurking close by.

Gauff keen to leave her Mark
Cori Gauff, 10 years younger than Pegula and still a teenager, is the American No. 3 and #20 in the world on the WTA Tour. The fact that she has accomplished so much at such a young age already tells us that she can have a fabulous career.
Of course, Gauff is still inexperienced and prone to mistakes. Case in point, she started the new season with a second-round loss to Barty, followed by a semifinal appearance in the Adelaide International. Then in Melbourne, she was stunned by Qiang Wang in the first round in straight sets.
Most of Gauff’s previous season is also dotted with such instances. But she did win the title in Parma and made it to the penultimate rounds in Dubai, Rome, Adelaide, Charleston, French Open, and Montreal.
Gauff v Pegula Prediction and Tip
While Gauff can cause her compatriot all sorts of problems, Pegula is still experienced and well-versed with the sport to handle the challenges. Given her recent form, she should sail into the next round.
Tip: Pegula to win: 4/6 (Click Here to Bet with bet365)
