Following her first-round bye at the Wuhan Open, sixth seed Jessica Pegula’s opponent has been determined. In an all-American affair, Pegula will in the second round meet Hailey Baptiste. This will be the third match between the two, and below we have a prediction.
Baptiste’s debut in Wuhan in 2024 ended in the third round, and she will be hoping to go deeper. She had a faulty start against Ashlyn Krueger in the first round but recovered to win in three sets.
In essence, she’s already disadvantaged, having played an hour and 44 minutes more than her opponent. Three years since her last meetup with Pegula, and Baptiste will still be the underdog, having compiled a 28-22 record. She is 63rd in the live rankings.
Pegula, sixth in the live ranking, arrived in Wuhan off the back of a tough run at Beijing. She didn’t look at her best, and the semi-final defeat to Linda Noskova was always coming.
It was her fourth straight game to go to three sets, and she was definitely drained. The world number six has only lost once in the first round this season, in Wimbledon.
She has three titles to her name and reached five finals in 2025, making her a favorite to go all the way. Pegula is making her third appearance in Wuhan. Like Baptiste, she made it only to the third round last year.
