On the afternoon of Sunday June 23, during the prestigious Berlin grass tournament in the 500 category, the final match between the Russian Anna Kalinskaya and the American Jessica Pegula will take place. In personal meetings, the American leads with a score of 1:0. The only time the tennis players met was in 2019 at a tournament in Washington. Then, in the 1/2 final, the American won in three sets – 6:3, 3:6, 6:1.
For Anna Kalinskaya, this will be only the second final in her career, if we talk about the WTA tour. The first happened this season, at the thousandth kilometer in Dubai. During this tournament, the Russian demonstrated tennis of the highest level and left behind several representatives of the top 10, including Ons Jabeur, Corey Gauff and Iga Swiatek. In the final match itself, Kalinskaya lost to Italian Jasmine Paolini, although the first set went to Anna – 6:4, 5:7, 5:7.
The Berlin tournament is similar to the thousandth tournament in Dubai precisely in the level of play demonstrated by Kalinskaya. In the German capital, Anna also took many famous scalps. On her way, the Russian overtook the sixth seeded racket of the tournament, the Czech Marketa Vondrousova (5:5 Rt), the third world racket Aryna Sabalenka (5:1 Rt) and the two-time Grand Slam champion Victoria Azarenka ( 6:1, 6:7, 6:1). But what is important is that Kalinskaya looks very confident on the court, which can help Anna compete for victory with American Jesska Pegula, who is currently the fifth racket in the world.
