Pegula enters the championship as the defending champion and top seed, bringing both experience and elite form into the final. The American has already captured a WTA 1000 title earlier this season and continues to prove her consistency at the highest level, highlighted by multiple comeback victories this week in Charleston. Her ability to adjust mid-match and elevate her serve under pressure has been a defining factor, and sheâll be aiming to secure back-to-back titles at this WTA 500 clay event.

Starodubtseva, however, has been the breakout story of the tournament. The unseeded Ukrainian, ranked outside the top 80, wasnât even originally in the main draw but has surged all the way to her first career WTA final, including a straight-sets upset of Madison Keys in the semifinals. Her aggressive baseline play and confidence have been key throughout the week, but this matchup presents a new challenge against one of the tourâs most reliable players. With Pegulaâs experience and Starodubtsevaâs momentum colliding, Sundayâs final sets up as a classic contrast between proven consistency and a rising underdog chasing a career-defining breakthrough.
