Pegula d. Raducanu 3-6 7-6(9) 6-0

3 match points saved

Some incredible points from both

Emma was on fire for the first 2 sets, but Pegula stayed tough

She snaps a 5 match losing streak against top 50 players

✅45th win of 2025
✅3rd straight Beijing R16

A great escape 🇺🇸

Caty McNally on how her mixed doubles pairing with Musetti came to be after their win over Osaka & Monfils at U.S. Open

“Sunday I was back home in Cincinnati. My agent called & said ‘You have 60 seconds to tell me if you wanna play with Lorenzo Musetti.’ I was like ‘uhhh… yes.’” 😂

Amanda Anisimova says the 6-0 6-0 loss to Iga Swiatek was not how she wanted her first Slam final to go, but it will make her stronger:

‘It’s not an easy thing to go through… I told myself I’ll definitely come out stronger after this’

Inside watching TV to escape the heat, and stumbled across reruns of Secret Army. Through the distorting lens of ‘Allo ‘Allo, I had forgotten what excellent nuanced hard-core drama it was.

Katie gets her first top 10 win of 2025

No better place to do it than in front of her home crowd

She has such a great game for grass… huge serve & flat groundstrokes

✅4th top 10 win
✅6th Wimbledon R2

Gonna be a threat to everyone

Hubert Hurkacz has withdrawn from Wimbledon.

His body still isn’t fully recovered since having surgery.

Hoping to see him healthy again very soon.

Aryna Sabalenka releases a statement saying she wants to give Coco Gauff the credit she deserves:

“I made over 70 unforced errors, so I can't pretend it was a great day for me.
But both things can be true... I didn't play my best, and Coco stepped up and played with poise and purpose.”

Novak Djokovic becomes the 2nd man in history to reach 100 match wins at Roland Garros.

The only other man to do it… Rafa Nadal.

Massive.

Aryna reaches her 3rd Roland Garros Quarterfinal.

A matchup that’s given her a lot of trouble in the past, but she’s grown so much.

✅12 Grand Slam QF
✅Won 13 of last 14 matches
✅38th win of 2025

The tremendous world #1.
