Pegula continues her journey

On the first turn of the Philippe Chatrier track, arriving at noon, they met Jessica Pegula and Camila Giorgi. Two tennis players who usually carry authority from the back of the court and who have very flat and aggressive shots. They are old acquaintances and within the circuit they faced each other for the eighth time, being the American who had the face to face very favorably.

With more perseverance and knowing how to maintain a much more positive inertia, the third player in the world managed to get ahead. What moved the marker was what happened on the track. The Italian was looking for shots that were very complicated since she did not have control. Jessica, for her part with stability and knowing the type of tennis player in front of her, was more sane. Two breaks and the opportunity to go ahead, but it would be with 5-2 and service when she had the serve to define. Despite having to deal with the 30-30 on a couple of occasions, she did not lose concentration and was decisive.

for some problem, Camila called the physio and had to say goodbye to the appointment. She could not continue and the dream of continuing at Roland Garros was crushed. The American, she is one of the most regular tennis players since she reached the top 10 positions in the WTA ranking. Last year, in Paris, she already reached the quarterfinals, this being her ceiling in Grand Slam tournaments. This 2023, at the Australian Open she also enjoyed being in the quarterfinals, and in this tournament she will seek to reach that round on clay and then break that milestone that she still has not been able to overcome after five chances.
