Jessica Pegula vs Martina Trevisan will take place in the round of 16 of the 2023 WTA Madrid Open on May 1.
Jessica Pegula was once more extraordinarily fortunate to have won the match without dropping a set. She saved 12 of 14 breakpoints to defeat world No. 31 Marie Bouzkova, 6-4, 7-6, and went on to defeat qualifier and world No. 100 Magdalena Frech, 7-6, 6-3. She keeps up her streak of winning multiple matches in each of her matches this season, bringing her win-loss record to 26-7. The third-ranked player in the world has advanced at least as far as the quarterfinals in 10 of her last 11 competitions. In Madrid, where she defeated five notable but unseeded opponents to reach the final the previous year, she is attempting to reach her second quarterfinal.
In Madrid, Martina Trevisan is making a memorable entrance into the main draw. After being two points away from the decider, she defeated qualifier Eugenie Bouchard, 6-2, 7-5, and then defeated Alycia Parks, 7-6, 6-1, in another difficult straight-set match. She had to stay in it, so the first set alone lasted almost an hour and a half. The Italian’s poor hard-court performance from the previous season continued as she lost seven of her first nine matches. She discovered her problems, though, with a Miami quarterfinal, and she now hopes to start winning again on clay courts, where she won a WTA title in Rabat and advanced to the semifinals in Paris last year.
