Jessica Pegula defeated Diana Shnaider 6-4, 6-2 in the fourth round of the US Open and advanced to the quarterfinals. Pegula took roughly one hour and a half to hold off Shnaider in a business-as-usual match between the two.
“I feel like there’s been more pressure this year because I did so well coming into this tournament. To be able to still be here winning, I feel like today might be the best off the ground that I’ve felt. I want to keep working my way and, hopefully, bring my best tennis for the later rounds. There’s always a lot of pressure here, but it’s fun. I like it. It’s always nice being an American here and getting all the support,” said Jessica Pegula in a post-match interview.
Jessica Pegula will face Iga Swiatek on Wednesday for a place in the semifinals.
