The 2024 major season ended with two Americans — Taylor Fritz and Jessica Pegula — playing for the singles titles at the US Open. Their collective success, as well as that of other Americans throughout the year, set up high expectations for 2025.
Jessica Pegula has backed Novak Djokovic's call for more entertainment for fans, saying tennis should become less "stuffy" and "uppity." Djokovic said after his third-round win at the Australian Open that tennis needs to be "more fun". He suggested even that dancers could be brought on court during breaks to appeal to a new 21st century generation. World number six Pegula agreed the game needed to jazz things up.
MELBOURNE : Jessica Pegula feels the decision to give herself an extra week to recover from a niggling knee injury has paid off as the American heads into the Australian Open on the back of a run to the final of the tune-up tournament in Adelaide.
Madison Keys fought through a leg injury to beat Jessica Pegula 6-3 4-6 6-1 in an all-American Adelaide International final on Saturday, continuing her good form heading into the Australian Open.
Felix Auger-Aliassime needed four match points and nearly three hours to beat Tommy Paul 7-6 (7/3), 3-6, 6-4 and reach the Adelaide International final on Friday. On the eve of the Australian Open, it was a 16th final for the Canadian and puts him one win from a sixth title. He will face second seed Sebastian Korda, who defeated Serb Miomir Kecmanovic 6-3, 7-6 (7/4). Paul's loss prevented the American from breaking into the top 10 for the first time in his career. The semi-final with Auger-Aliassime was marred by more than 90 unforced errors, with the Canadian failing to close out a straight-sets win when top seed Paul won six of the last seven games in the second set.
Former world number six Gael Monfils clinched a 7-6(5) 6-4 win over Nishesh Basavareddy in the Auckland Classic semi-finals on Friday to become the second-oldest player to reach an ATP Tour final since 1990.
