PEGULA FAILS EARLY. Last Saturday, Jessica Pegula secured the tournament win in Bad Homburg with a convincing victory in the final against Iga Swiatek. However, the successful main rehearsal on grass was followed by disillusionment at Wimbledon. The American, seeded number 3, lost 2:6, 3:6 to the Italian Elisabetta Cocciaretto (WTA 116), meaning that the Grand Slam tournament was already over for last year's US Open finalist after just over an hour. Cocciaretto, on the other hand, took revenge for her defeat in the only previous meeting between the two players: Pegula had prevailed in two sets in the third round of Wimbledon in 2023.
