After a lifetime pursuing the goal, Jessica Pegula will now be able to tell her grandchildren that she played a Grand Slam final. And it wasn't just any final, but the 2024 US Open, against Aryna Sabalenka after a dream summer on the North American tour. However, she will also tell them that she suffered like never before in the semifinals to come back against a Muchova who had the match completely under control. An epic narrative in the shoes of the Buffalo player, showing her biggest smile in the press conference after defeating the Czech and seeing how the dream is just a breath away from becoming reality. She should take a breath because the final step is always the most challenging to tackle.
An Unforgettable Victory
"Obviously, I'm very happy to be here sitting telling that I turned the match around, although on the court I experienced everything with more intensity. Somehow I found a way and started playing really good tennis, keeping the momentum through the third set until closing it. I think we played very good tennis in the third set, from late in the second set, actually. I am just happy with how I could compete."
