The American overcame a hard-fought battle against Emma Raducanu to book her semi-final spot and has enjoyed dominant victories over Marta Kostyuk Bernarda Pera, and Anna Kalinskaya. Pegula has shown her brilliance on hard courts yet again, after finishing as a finalist at the Flushing Meadows and winning the ATX Open a few weeks earlier.

Prediction

Two top-10 players down, one more to go? If anyone doubted Eala’s win over Keys to be a one-off result, the Filipino proved herself again, beating Swiatek convincingly in straight sets. Pegula has looked comfortable in her campaign so far and is hoping to replicate her US Open success in Miami.

Players like Eala, who thrive under pressure with a fearless, nothing-to-lose mindset, often pose a tough challenge for their opponents. Despite Pegula’s experience and game well-suited to these conditions, Eala could be on track for a third straight top-10 upset and her first career final.

Result: Eala will win in three sets.
