WTA Berlin
Samsonova L. - Pegula J.
🧠 Form & Context
Liudmila Samsonova
💥 Survived a thriller vs Naomi Osaka in R1: 3–6, 7–6, 6–4 in 2h36m.
🧱 2021 Berlin champion but plagued by inconsistency: 13 of last 17 events ended before R3.
🤕 Recently lost to world No. 231 Branstine in Rosmalen.
🎾 Only 1–1 on grass this year despite having solid past success (career 29–15 on grass).
⚡ Powerful serve and flat hitting are well-suited to quick conditions—but she needs confidence.
Jessica Pegula
🧊 Ice-cold on clay post-Charleston win (lost to world No. 361 Boisson at RG).
🔥 But Pegula thrives in Berlin: QF in 2021, champion in 2024.
💪 Season W/L: 31–11 | 20–6 on hard, but no grass matches yet in 2025.
🧠 Mentally solid, breaks down rhythm players with precise counterpunching.
🧬 Leads H2H 4–1, including a 6–0, 6–4 beatdown in Dubai this year.
