Jessica Pegula lost to Madison Keys in the round of 16 at the US Open 2023

Jessica Pegula (3rd WTA) was unable to achieve a result at last year’s US Open.

The third favorite was eliminated in the 1/8 finals by Madison Keys (17 WTA), at the end of a weak match played by Pegula. It took Keys 63 minutes to reach the quarter, losing just 4 games in that game.

In the quarterfinals, the 2017 finalist will meet Marketa Vondrousova (9 WTA). The Czech lost in three sets to Peyton Stearns (59 WTA), 6-7(3), 6-3, 6-2.

US Open 2023 will be held from August 28 to September 10, and the most important matches from Flushing Meadows will be on HotNews.ro every day. Titled champions – Carlos Alcaraz and Iga Svyatek.
