Swiatek, Pegula In Action Wednesday In Tokyo
- No Comments
Top seeds Iga Swiatek and Jessica Pegula are back on court Wednesday in Tokyo.
The two will hope to start the final month of the season on a positive note after a disappointing US Open. Swiatek has upset by Jelena Ostapenko while Pegula was bounced by Madison Keys.
The early exits also changed their rankings. Swiatek is no longer the world No. 1 while Pegula no longer the American No. 1.
Swiatek takes on qualifier Mai Hontama. Pegula battles the Spaniard Christina Bucsa.
Earlier today, No. 6 Daria Kasatkina sent out the Ukraine’s Marta Kostyuk from a set down 3-6, 6-4, 6-3.
Misaki Doi toppled Croatia’s Petra Martic 7-5, 6-2. Russian Ekaterina Alexandrova and Veronika Kudermetova also advanced.
