The 2025 US Open has reached its semifinal stage, with four women remaining in the singles competition. Amanda Anisimova, Aryna Sabalenka, Jessica Pegula, and Naomi Osaka are all vying for a spot in the final.
Anisimova recently avenged her loss in the Wimbledon finals by defeating Iga Swiatek in the quarterfinals. This marks her first semifinal appearance at the US Open. Sabalenka, on the other hand, has reached the semifinals of all four Grand Slam tournaments this year and is looking to defend her title.
The first semifinal match will feature Jessica Pegula against Aryna Sabalenka. Pegula has had a solid season, winning titles in Austin, Charleston, and Bad Homburg. She has also reached five finals on tour. Sabalenka, currently ranked among the top three players, has secured titles in Miami, Madrid, and Brisbane.
In their upcoming match, Pegula will be looking to avenge her loss to Sabalenka last year. Sabalenka has been playing consistently, but Pegula has been impressive in New York so far. Considering their past encounters and performances under pressure, Pegula has a good chance of winning this match.
The second semifinal match will pit Naomi Osaka against Amanda Anisimova. Osaka has been working her way back to top form after her maternity leave and has been rewarded with a semifinal berth. Anisimova, meanwhile, has been one of the standout performers this season, winning the WTA 1000 event in Qatar and reaching the finals at Wimbledon.
Both Osaka and Anisimova are playing at a high level in New York. The player who starts strong and capitalizes on their opportunities will have an edge in this match. Given Osaka’s experience on the main tour and her record in New York, she is likely to advance to the final.
The semifinal matches promise to be exciting, with all four players eager to stake their claim for the title and make history at the US Open. The winners will move on to the final, where they will compete for the championship.
