Aryna Sabalenka vs Jessica Pegula US Open semi-final: When and where to watch?

Aryna Sabalenka and Jessica Pegula will renew their rivalry in the semifinals of the 2025 US Open, a clash that carries the weight of history and the lure of redemption. Just a year ago, the two met in the Flushing Meadows final, where Sabalenka prevailed 7-5, 7-5 to lift her maiden US Open crown. For Pegula, the loss was a bitter pill on home soil, and Thursday’s semifinal offers the perfect chance at revenge.

Sabalenka, the world No. 1 and defending champion, arrives in formidable form. Benefiting from a quarterfinal walkover after Markta Vondrouova’s injury, she enters fresher than most and is now bidding to reach her sixth straight hard-court Grand Slam final.

Her head-to-head record against Pegula stands at 7–2, with three consecutive wins—including not only last year’s US Open final but also the 2025 Miami Open title match. The Belarusian’s trademark power and consistency have kept her one step ahead in this rivalry.

Pegula, however, is riding a wave of confidence. The American No. 4 seed has not dropped a set en route to the semifinals, brushing aside Barbora Krejkov in a commanding quarterfinal.

Backed by home support and driven by the sting of last year’s defeat, the 31-year-old is determined to turn the tables. For Pegula, this is more than a semifinal—it’s a chance to rewrite the story and seize the Grand Slam moment that has so far eluded her.
