Fourth seed Jessica Pegula has the chance to bring her season to order when she gets down at the US Open. To start off in the first round, she takes on Mayar Sherif, whose Grand Slam record isn’t great. Below is our prediction for this match.
The winner here will earn the slot to face Yulia Starodubtseva or Anna Blinkova. Despite winning the titles in Charleston, Austin and Bad Homburg, recent months haven't brought out the best of Pegula.
The American hasn’t won more than a game in the last five events she participated in. However, having only lost in the first round once this season, she should power her way past this. Pegula is fourth in the live rankings.
If we band these two players as per their performances in the last 10 matches, Mayar Sherif will have the better record. However, she will need something special to beat last season’s US Open runners-up.
The Egyptian comes into this match having been inactive for a month, since last featuring in Palermo. Back then she was forced to withdraw in the second round, leaving her on five losses in 10 and 102nd in the live rank.
This season, Sherif has only won Challenger and ITF titles – in Biarritz, Parma, and Madrid. Her journey at Grand Slams this season ended in the first round.

Our Jessica Pegula vs Maiar Sherif Ahmed Abdelaziz Prediction
Pegula’s best performance at a Grand Slam was recorded last year, at the US Open. The American, playing at home, in front of a passionate home crowd, reached the final. She has our nod to start well, facing a player who has struggled at Grand Slams.
Things haven't gone fully to plan lately, though, and Pegula will be looking to bring order here. We can’t rule out a bit of struggle, as she has shown some shakiness against players outside the top 50 at majors. Our prediction for Jessica Pegula v Mayar Sherif is for Pegula to win in three sets.
