Jessica Pegula credited her victory over World No. 1 Iga Swiatek at the US Open on Wednesday which propelled her into a maiden Grand Slam semi-final to an injury that “sucks.” 

Sixth-ranked Pegula triumphed over the 2022 champion and four-time French Open winner 6-2, 6-4. Victory ended Pegula’s run of losing all six Grand Slam quarter-finals in which she had played and extended her streak to 14 wins in 15 matches on US hard courts this summer.
