World number three Jessica Pegula's hopes of hoisting her maiden Grand Slam trophy ended in despair on Friday after a 6-1 6-3 defeat by Belgian Elise Mertens in the French Open third round.
World No. 3 Jessica Pegula became the highest-ranked player in the women's draw to exit the French Open on Thursday.
Elise Mertens produced the biggest upset of the French Open women’s draw so far as she dismantled third seed Jessica Pegula with a 6-1 6-3 third-round victory. Pegula had not played much in the previous round with her opponent, Camila Giorgi, having to retire after just one set. Ad The American was nevertheless the favourite after reaching quarter-finals in four of the last five Grand Slams, including last year at Roland-Garros, but she was outclassed by Mertens on Court Philippe-Chatrier.
