Top seed Pegula (WTA No. 3) has been having an excellent year, posting a 21-14 record in 2025 and winning eight titles in her career. In the R16 stage at Bad Homburg, Pegula got rid of Siniakova 6-2, 6-3 in just 66 minutes, dropping four points on her first serve and facing a mere two break chances. The American finalized her season-winning streak in clay in Charleston, winning the WTA 500 (6-3, 7-5 against Sofia Kenin) and thus demonstrated her movement across surfaces. On the grass this season, Pegula reached the Berlin final in 2024, backed by a career-best grass win-loss record, including the aforementioned 2024 Berlin title. Not much social media buzz recently, but interviews have been revealing her thoughts about regaining grass-court momentum after the Berlin slump. Pegula, with her aggressive court positioning, powerful first serve, and crisp returns, should go on to reassert her top seed status on home soil in Germany.
🇺🇸 Emma Navarro
Emma Navarro, seeded No. 5 and ranked No. 9, is on a purple patch, winning her second career title in Merida with a double bagel final (6-0, 6-0) . She eliminated Naomi Osaka in the R16 at Bad Homburg (6-4, 6-4) showing strength from the back of the court . Navarro has a 20-15 record in 2025 overall and goes 3-2 on grass . She had a fourth round showing in Miami just last year before losing to Pegula in three tight sets (7-6, 6-3) . YTD stats indicate her return game has been solid, and she gained confidence from her semifinal appearance in Berlin last year. On social media, Navarro posted several victory pictures from Merida, with captions about "focus" and "gratitude," so that states pretty clearly that she is in strong mental shape. In recent interviews, she has spoken about embracing the unique bounce of grass and developing fast-court strengths. Ever increasing in Elo rating and aggressive in her ground game category, Navarro will surely pose a great threat to this quarterfinal.
