Coco Gauff and Jessica Pegula were one of the most dangerous doubles teams in the world<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Two of the game\u2019s best singles players combining to make a great doubles team was not easy for their rivals to contend with.<\/p>\n

But despite their success the American duo struggled somewhat in 2024, and they have not played together since the Paris Olympic Games<\/a>.<\/p>\n

As the 2025 season progresses, it remains to be seen if Gauff and Pegula<\/a> will compete side-by-side once again.<\/p>\n

Coco Gauff<\/a> and Jessica Pegula<\/a> are United States\u2019 two top-ranked American singles players on the WTA Tour<\/a>. As much as both players enjoy the doubles game, both competitors have a desire to achieve more singles success.<\/p>\n

Therefore, both players have begun to play less doubles tennis, but when they do play, they have been playing with different partners.<\/p>\n

Despite this, both players maintain a good relationship but Gauff did not suggest the chance of reunion in the near future.<\/p>\n

\u201cJess and I, we\u2019re cool. Well, she invited me to go to movies, but she didn\u2019t follow-up on that (laughing). I don\u2019t know if y\u2019all saw that,\u201d Gauff told reporters at the Madrid Open<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut, yeah, Jess and I are cool, and all the people I played doubles in the past are cool. It\u2019s just more, I mean, we both, I mean, Jess is playing less doubles too, me as well.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis week I played doubles and I enjoyed it, and I\u2019m deciding in Rome maybe I\u2019ll play or not, kind of depends on how I feel.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think it helps me. I definitely won\u2019t be playing a full schedule, or definitely won\u2019t be playing in the slams, but every now and then I think it\u2019s good just to go out there, because I think it brings me joy to play, and then it translates into my singles.\u201d<\/p>\n

Pegula and Gauff won four titles as a doubles team, three of which came at WTA 1000 events. They also reached the 2022 French Open<\/a> final as well as two other WTA 1000 finals.<\/p>\n

The pair also became the World number one in doubles and competed at the 2023 WTA Finals<\/a> in 2022 and 2023.<\/p>\n

Prior to playing doubles with Desirae Krawczyk at the Stuttgart Open, Pegula is unsure when she will play doubles with Gauff again.<\/p>\n

\u201cYeah, I mean, Coco and I played so much for a couple years there. We did great. A lot of really amazing results and memories,\u201d she said. \u201cAt the same time doing well in the singles court, we obviously didn\u2019t want to play as much anymore.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe schedule just gets really, really tough. I\u2019ve barely played this year, probably won\u2019t play any of the Grand Slams this year. This week I\u2019m playing with Desirae Krawczyk, who is a really good friend of mine. Hopefully we can do well this week.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Coco Gauff and Jessica Pegula were one of the most dangerous doubles teams in the world.
