Pegula Advances to US Open Quarterfinals

Jessica Pegula, the sixth-seeded American, has advanced to the quarterfinals of the U.S. Open, following a series of impressive performances. Pegula, who has won 13 of her past 14 matches, will face world No. 1 Iga Swiatek next, who she has a 0-6 record against in major quarterfinals. Swiatek, the defending US Open champion, has had a strong season with multiple titles and is seen as the favorite. Pegula, despite a tough start to the year and overcoming injuries, has shown resilience with recent wins in Berlin, Toronto, and a final appearance in Cincinnati. Both players have faced each other multiple times, with Swiatek generally having the upper hand. Pegula’s strong form and determination to break her quarterfinal curse add excitement to the upcoming match.
