Jessica Pegula will continue playing despite Charleston Open win with Billie Jean King Cup and Stuttgart next up
WTA
Jessica Pegula will continue her insane run of tournaments over the next few weeks despite winning the Charleston Open and her ranking dictating that she doesn't really need to play.
Pegula has very little to defend in the coming months especially during the clay court season where she didn't play. But despite that she will still head to Europe over the next day or so to play Billie Jean King Cup.
Perhaps the one she was expected to skip, she will represent Team USA as they look to make it to the Finals. But then she will head to Stuttgart to play at the Porsche Tennis Grand Prix.
Albeit all of this is with a caveat. That being that she won't bring her coaches to these tournaments and it is more of a holiday. She said that her husband will technically be her coach in the coming weeks as she looks to unwind with her team while in Stuttgart.
She wants to win a Porsche which is currently held by Elena Rybakina and will want to continue that winning feeling. But perhaps this is baffling given her recent time on court with two tournaments in a row reaching the final.
"I think I'm gonna go play Stuttgart, so I'm gonna be there anyway. Haven't played Stuttgart so gonna try and go get a Porsche. I'm just gonna kinda not go with the coach next couple of weeks, a little more relaxed, tryna go travel with my husband Taylor and just maybe not take it so seriously as far as a crazy couple weeks," she said.
"But I'm tryna go have some fun with the team when I get to Stuttgart," she added.
In addition, Billie Jean King Cup is on indoor hard so she will go back to another surface before playing clay the week after in Germany.

- One step by another step -- WTA continues to 'lose the plot'. Too many hi-tech microphones being installed at most venues!!! Remove them (especially those along the hallways, sidewalks, and pathways throughout the venues. Not to mention (most of all) remove the mic's from the Players/Coaches Box.

- Don't you just love this young lady!? We fans often expect athletes to be supermen and superwomen, often forgetting that they WILL GET TIRED! I love Alex's perspective. Tiredness for an athlete should never be viewed as a negative, especially if you are healthy, taking care of your body and mental health and putting in the work. What a mature perspective. Good for you, Alex!Rapunzel05-11-2026
- Jess is absolutely correct! But the disrespect is a trait I have noticed in most of the Russian players. Mirra is good but very immature and lacks humility. Conceivable needs to get a handle on that!Rapunzel05-11-2026
- Having spent weeks and weeks through the years on tour, I can say with confidence that Conchita was (is) one of the very few who realize the surprising level of maturity (and sometimes lack of) which Mirra seems to have developed in such a demanding adult world of Pro-Tennis. While at the same time reminding herself (Conchita, that is) that Mirra is still young and developing mentally and physically. The general public may forget at times, or not at all realize, these modern era young athletes do not have a 'normal' Youth. It's a major sacrifice, among countless sacrifices, these athletes must make. People who blow-off that fact are ignorant and unfair when they blurt out, "They choose fame so they have to put up with the intrusions on their lives". No, they do not.mandoist05-11-2026
- Okay... someone with a camera was EAVESDROPPING on a private conversation. Shouldn't that be the point of discussion here? Regardless of the sensationalist crap by media, Pegula (and anyone) has a right to an opinion. There used to be an expectation that private conversations were respected, regardless of 'stardom' and whatever other defensive excuses media tries to shove in our faces. Boo-hoo if feelings are hurt. BTW: Having been employed at various tourney venues, etc., I can't tell you how nasty and offensive players can be when discussing their opponents and colleagues... in "private". Well, I could, but won't. I also challenge anyone to deny what Jessica said is false.mandoist05-11-2026
