Jessica Pegula continues her impressive form as she advances to her second consecutive WTA 1000 semifinal, beating Leylah Fernandez in a thrilling three-set match at the Cincinnati Open. With this win, Pegula extends her winning streak to eight matches and sets up a clash with Paula Badosa for a spot in the final. Pegula's recent run of success has put her back on track after injuries forced her to miss out on several top tournaments earlier this year. She is now in contention for a spot in the WTA Finals as she rises up the rankings.
