Top seed Sabalenka stunned by Pegula as American reaches Berlin final

Top seed Aryna Sabalenka saw her Wimbledon preparations take a major hit as she was stunned by Jessica Pegula in the deciding set of the Berlin Open semi-finals. The American sealed her fourth win over Sabalenka in 13 WTA Tour meetings with a stunning 6-4 6-7 (4-7) 6-0 victory as she secured a spot in the final.

Pegula was leading 3-1 in the second-set tie-break before a rain delay lasting over two hours washed away her momentum and handed it to Sabalenka, who sent the contest into a deciding set shoot-out.
