WTA Bad Homburg – Pegula vs Siniaková Preview
🧠 Form & Context
Jessica Pegula
🎾 Currently World No. 3, but momentum has slowed since her early-season high (titles in Austin & Charleston, runner-up in Miami).
😬 Five early exits in her last six events, including a surprise loss to world No. 361 Boisson at Roland Garros.
🥶 Couldn’t defend her Berlin title last week—fell in R1 to Samsonova.
🌱 Just 0–1 on grass in 2025; her last win on the surface came at Berlin last summer.
📊 Leads the H2H 3–1, but her only previous Bad Homburg match against Siniaková (2021) ended in defeat.
Katerina Siniaková
🔥 Back in her element—6–2 on grass this season and riding a three-match win streak here (including qualifying).
🏆 One of Bad Homburg’s most successful players: Champion in 2023, finalist in 2021, and QF in 2024.
🧱 Style made for this turf: resilient baselining, clean volleys, and smart serving under pressure.
📉 Hadn’t made a WTA quarterfinal since January, but clearly hitting her stride again at her favorite venue.
⚠️ Recent losses came against strong rhythm players—Pegula brings a different, less baseline-heavy approach.
🔍 Match Breakdown
A potential upset brews here, with Siniaková in top form on a surface and venue she loves, while Pegula tries to shake off rust.
