America’s tennis star Jessica Pegula showcased her skills

The 29-year-old has recently taken part in the China Open
where her journey came to an end after losing to Latvia’s Jelena Ostapenko in
straight sets with a score of 6-4, 6-2.
Despite having a tough outing on the court, Pegula showcased
her skill in the ring toss challenge which she completely aced, much to the surprise
of a social media user who shared her video on X — previously known as Twitter.
