Claim Welcome Bonus🇦🇺 Ajla Tomljanovic
Ajla Tomljanović is placed within the WTA top 100 (WTA profile states WTA No.94 and a 2025 YTD record around 20–21), and she has made a great season with her hard court and clay results. In the first round of Beijing, she started with a solid 7-6(1), 6-2 win over Yuliia Starodubtseva, and she was successful in breaking the rhythm and finishing the points in two sets by using the return's depth and net approaches. The tennis of Tomljanović is a combination of her consistent ground strokes, her aggressive attitude to come to the net, and her experience in extending the rallies until her opponents commit mistakes; she will try to keep the points long, focus on Pegula's second serve and convert defense into quick offense. When playing against an opponent from the top 10, she will require almost perfect serves and short error-free rallies to have set opportunities.
🇺🇸 Jessica Pegula
One of the top 10 players in the world (WTA No.7 on the latest rankings) and a very stable hard-court season, Jessica Pegula entered with an excellent 2025 win-loss record (around 42-17 YTD) in Beijing. Her groundstroke game is a combination of good ball-striking, well-placed serves, and defensive transition made with discipline; those characteristics give her the least trouble in WTA 1000 matches where depth and margin are critical. Pegula was crowned with titles and achieved good results this season and she has defeated Tomljanović quite recently (e.g., Charleston) which has given her a straightforward tactical plan: attack the return, be patient during big rallies and go to the net with the ball converted. Pegula is going to be the one controlling the rhythm of the big points and making the most of the opportunities that come with game pressure.
