Jessica Pegula

Jessica Pegula was born February 24, 1994, and turned professional with a game built for consistency at the top of the women's draw. By October 2022 she'd cracked the top three in singles, then did it again in July 2026, while separately reaching world No. 1 in doubles in September 2023. The major semifinal became a familiar stop - four times in singles, three of them at the US Open, one at the Australian - and she added eleven quarterfinal runs across all four Slams. In 2024 she reached her first Grand Slam singles final at the US Open and finished runner-up, just as she had at the 2023 WTA Finals. She won 11 singles titles and seven in doubles on tour, including four WTA 1000 crowns in singles and two in doubles, and took the US team to victory at the inaugural 2023 United Cup and to the 2025 Billie Jean King Cup final. The silverware keeps coming; the major singles trophy is the last piece.
