🇺🇸 @JLPegula advances to the #MiamiOpen semifinals after Badosa retires. Final score: 4-1
Paula Badosa retires against Pegula in Miami after 20 minutes of play
WTAWednesday, 30 March 2022 at 19:30
The first WTA Miami Open quarterfinal is done as Paula Badosa retired against Jessica Pegula 20 minutes into the match.
The Spaniard opened the match well breaking her opponent in the first game and taking a 1-0 lead. She then lost her serve in the next game as she was unable to hit her first serve. That gave Pegula a lot of time to set up her baseline game and she did. Pegula then took a 2-1 lead and broke Badosa once more for a 3-1 lead. Once again Badosa failed to hit a single first serve.
After Pegula won her service game to take a 4-1 lead, Badosa retired from the match. It's unclear what had happened to Badosa but she did not have very good body language in the match. There were rumblings about her injuring her leg against Fruhvirtova.

- He's a Cool Dude (and very funny guy). Always fun to be in the presence of Tomasz. Something he mentioned here is what many who have coached at any level can relate to -- "the crazy parents committee". It relates to my coaching experiences in kid's sports. My #1 complaint about coaching kids is Problem Parents!! It can be a very abusive, even violent situation with many parents when it comes to their kid's sports. In the end, it was no longer worth the potential (all too common) altercations for me and I quit. But thanks to Tomasz, I now have a name for those (you?) people: The Crazy Parents Committee.mandoist26-09-2024
- She's no longer a tennis player; apparently it wasn't a priority. So why the publicity?mandoist26-09-2024
- Yes, the Ginger is right... 'you don't have to play'. And we are realizing the results of how players are affected by non-stop scheduling. Everything Iga first mentioned 2 years ago is now coming to fruition as far too many top WTA players cannot maintain their well-being. Therfor having to blow-off several tourneys. It's common sense -- the human body is not a machine! WTA's GREED and insensitivity is no joke.mandoist26-09-2024
