Jessica Pegula had a double mission last night at the US Open 2024: closing the day at Arthur Ashe and putting an end to Shelby Rogers's career, a good friend within the locker room. She carried out both tasks masterfully, especially the second one (6-4, 6-3). A match filled with emotion where the Americans embraced at the net to end it in the best possible way. Additionally, there were other interesting results to analyze.
