Coco Gauff and Madison Keys react after Jessica Pegula beats Iga Swiatek in the Bad Homburg Open final

Jessica Pegula is once again a winner on the WTA Tour, having beaten Iga Swiatek in the final of the Bad Homburg Open.

Pegula told Swiatek to cut herself ‘some slack’ after their final, in which the American beat the Pole 6-4, 7-5.

The champion was the top seed at the WTA 500 tournament on grass, with runner-up Swiatek having been the fourth.

Brad Gilbert likes Pegula’s chances at Wimbledon, where the Bad Homburg Open champion is the third seed.

Pegula enters the Grand Slam as a nine-time winner on the WTA Tour, and takes on Italian Elisabetta Cocciaretto in round one.

And two fellow Americans and fellow WTA stars were quick to comment on the post, delighted for Pegula ahead of Wimbledon.

The American star has, however, only ever managed to reach the quarter-finals at Wimbledon and no further.

She progressed that far in 2023, failing to take that momentum into 2024 as she exited after just two rounds.

But the experienced player is in form going into Wimbledon, where she will be looking to replicate the success of Gauff and Keys from this season’s previous Grand Slams.

World number two Gauff defeated Aryna Sabalenka in the French Open final earlier this month, with world number eight Keys having also defeated the Belarusian to win the Australian Open title.
