The 12th-seeded Pegula opened the final with a 4-1 lead, having converted her sole break point and saving all the four she faced. In the seventh game, Jabeur brought the set back on serve. At 5-4, Pegula had a set point as a result of Jabeur’s errant forehands, but the Tunisian saved that set point to level to 5-5, then broke the American at love in the following game and closed out the set, 7-5.
