🇺🇸 Jessica Pegula: form and statistics
We know Jessica Pegula is an ace on clay courts, and she won't let a wildcard stop her. The 31-year-old American is third in the world rankings, currently holding a 31-10 win-loss record in 2025; out of these, one particular clay-court 11-4 record holds more prominence, given her titles in Charleston and Austin. A 2024 US Open finalist and 2022 French Open quarterfinalist, she is firing on all cylinders after her win against Marketa Vondrousova on May 31, from a set down at 3-6, 6-4, 6-2, winning 65% of service games and breaking 40% of the occasions with the help of WTOP News and Sportstar. Her career clay record is now at 74-46; over the past 12 months, she has won nine, lost five on clay. On X, fans celebrate her "resilience," yet some identify her early Devil exits in Madrid and Rome as her Achilles' heel. Pegula told Sky Sports on May 31, "I’m hitting my head against the wall with this schedule, but I’m ready." Can she handle Boisson having home court advantage?
