America wins
Fun fact: Jessica's father, Terry Pegula, has an estimated net worth of $7 billion.
>>142080961wow our girl is already back on #168 lets gooooooo
>>142081112navarros daddy only 1.5bwhat a poorfag
>>142081112Fun fact: Terry Pegula's daughter, Jessica Pegula, has a face like a slapped arse.
>>142081199she's also dogpilled
Match starting!
>>142081548you just know
Anna is better than Emma

GWAN JESS
American Hapas > Bong Hapas
challenge: marry and have kids with Peg, but the moment you even flirt with another woman she breaks up with you and you get none of that 7billion
Jessie :)
>>142081851incredibly ugly, why would she agree to such shoots?
>>142081848and thats a challenge how?
So this is the result of Emma's hardcore training bloc for the grass season right? Get some Pimms and snacks in and watch Wimby on the telly love, you're wasting your time and ours.
>>142081932extremely discouraging reallyby now it seems basically impossible for her to beat a good opponent
>>142081955How many good players has she even taken a set off?I can't think of too many
Emma! The comeback starts now!
>>142081955Even at the 2021 US Open, she didn’t beat any good players. It’s time for us to come to terms.
Fun fact: Jessica's mother Kim is a vaxx victim.
Wtf is Jess doing?
Well then
JUST
this was so fucking obvious
HAHAHAHAHA
I CAN'T SERVE
False alarm, all is well
interesting how she worked extensively on her serve and it seems to have gotten even worse and more inconsistent
yeah nah yeah bed is a better use of my time
Here to watch round2canu lose?
>>142082267fuck off dirty thirdie, go find a job
LAWL
>KATIE HELP ME SHE'S A TOP 10 PLAYER
another straight sets defeat incoming for Emma, sad but predictableat this point you really gotta hope she gets a kind draw at Wimbledonat least she entered Washington already, should be the perfect opportunity to grab some points
>
Jessie is so good at tennis, Emma has no chance. Cuter than Emma too.
I still believe she can do this :)
>>142082310It's a disgrace she's got a WC
>>142082314She is extremely ugly, there is not a single beautiful feature about her.>>142082318I wish, but realistically she can't
if she gets broken now the second set will be over quickly
BWAHAHA EMMA UR SHIT
this is so fucking pathetic
>>142082336Don’t breed with an Asian. For every Emma, there are 10 Pegulas.
>>142082394so what you're saying is to breed with 11 Asians?
yeah that shit has to be mentalnow she is starting to crywill probably look for a way out
This is delicious
the players in this tournament are too good, the weather's too hot and there are seagullstake me back to comfy Nottingham with fran Jones, the mild weather and the bonging clock tower
>>142082278Work remote from homeAlso, it's fucking over for emlingz
will we see a vintage second set collapse from Emma?hasn't happened in quite a while I think, thought we were done with itwhy is it impossible for her to find any consistency?
can't hear the haters, get louder
>>142082495It’s here. :(
It doesn't look good...
Donut incoming
Emma radupingpong
>#5 beats #168wow... Incredible...
Emma :)
Emma cucktiniiiii Emma cucktiniiiii she could've won the cup but she fucked it up Emma cucktiniiiiii
>>142082532New cope just dropped
Honest question who is worse the english national team or the gypsy subhuman
Emma looks so sad :however...
What planet was she on to start crying because she's losing to the world #5? This is exactly the type of result she should expect, unless she believes all the hype in herself (and she clearly does)
>>142082577NT easily
Emma doesn't love tennis
>>142082596Her sponsors have threatened to break her legs
Emma needs someone to hug and support her
>>142082577Emma is a lot of things but she's never boring, her career has been fucking fascinating desu. England are boring, that's the worst thing to be in sport
>>142082596well to be fair, you need to be a bit delusional to succeed if she accepts mediocrity she will stay mediocre
Emma having a year of cleansing normality makes it more likely she'll win a major in a few years time. This is a good performance and result long term
So it happened again bros, we eatin good.
>>142082649>Emmalingz
>>142082631I suppose you're right anon but really that first set from Raducanu wasn't bad. She lost 6-4 but broke Pegula, she could have taken confidence from that
Dart just knocked out a former Aus Open winner with a bagel. Katie beats a French Open champion. Emma beats herself (a former US Open champion). This is utter dominance of the sport.
KWAB
I doubt Emma could even win a 125.
>>142082649She's not top 100 level, it's been 3 years anon, let it go
>>142082692lol you are delusionalshe nearly won a 250 1,5 weeks agoif she doesn't get injured she will win a tour level tournament this year, screenshot this post
>>142082674yeah on paper it looks OK but the collapse in her serve after 4 consecutive wins was particularly heartbreaking
>>142082713Shotted.
>>142082679Emma also beat a US Open winner in the first round
>>142082713She didn't even make the final
Why do they always play this Hey Ya shit at the tennis? Play some nirvana.
>>142082714she just has to finally start playing moreand win hard matchesI really hope post Wimbledon will be her last real break this season, then a full NA and Asia schedulecould do wonders for her confidence and ranking
>>142082696She's definitely top 100. She's around #30 in terms of ability. This time next year she'll probably be around #50 as she doesn't play many tournaments
APOLOGISE
>>142082267welcome
>>142082754I hope so although I can completely understand why she's being cautious. Let's not forget an MTO and a withdrawal happened every other match a couple of years ago. At least now she's losing on merit rather than losing due to injury.
Why you keep approaching the net Pegs, you cannot play at the net, embrace your baseline heritage
>>142082817no man, there is being cautious and there is being ridiculous if she can't play 50 matches a season at the least there is something wrong with her and she should probably not bother with a career in tennis anymoretoo often she loses in R1 or R2 and then doesn't enter anything for 3 weeksif you are only entering tournaments very selectively then you gotta go deep in them
>commentator wondering if Pegula has hit the wall
>>142082902I trust that she knows what she can handle and I hope she's able to handle more tournaments going forward
It's over
>>142082902>if she can't play 50 matches a season at the least there is something wrong with her and she should probably not bother with a career in tennis anymoreaint that the truth
>>142082961one would hope so, but I am not convincedEmma really is a curious case
She might actually win a set against a top 10 player at last
Good hold jpeg.Now break her.
The problem is if Emma loses here she will again just fall back on the yeah great opponent, tough and close match etc... and she wouldn't be completely wrong, but she has to take these chances when she gets them
EEEEEEEEEEEEMMMMMMMMMMMAEEEEEEEEEEEEMMMMMMMMMMMA
>>142083131What's the average Chinaman's opinion on Emma? Not the media, but the people I mean.
that slice....
>>142083322They don't know who she is because no one cares about tennis after Li Na retired.Those who do follow tennis are kinda neutral about her, she is a likable girl but doesn't really play a lot of high level tennis to stay relevant after that one big win.
>>142083400qinwen not a big name?
Uh am I the only one who sees the moustache on Emma when her face is in the shadow
>>142083472noticed it in some pictures
YEEESSSSS EMMMMAAAAAAAAAAAAAADESERVES ALL THE HUGS AND KISSES IN THE WORLD
Emlingz would have won Berlin, I fear
EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA
Is Emma fit enough to win in the 3rd set?>>142083451Not yet. More people are playing tennis in China, but it's still vastly less popular than badminton or ping pong. And the common audience really only cares about champions, to them a sportsperson without an Olympics gold medal or something similar is basically a nobody.
>>142083612usually I would say that's doubtful, but at some point Pegula has got to feel her legs from last week
Comeback status?
>>142083677she's BACK
>>142083677ON
hm hope that missed chance won't come back to haunt her
Emma is the face of tennis
>>142080961>Commentator in previous match says she doesn't think Katie Boulter has ever beaten a grand slam winner.>She beat Emma a whole TWO weeks ago.
GO OONNNN
Tbf the way she's coming back here, and against this opponent, if she wins it's her best match since 2021
>>142083677On like Donkey Kong
Pegula's given up at this point. She could go to her bank and count her money like Scrooge McDuck
wish emma would crack open my slazenger wimbledon balls
YEEESSSSS
We're so back!
what the fuck is going on
Emmaaa....
I can't believe she's about to beat a top player..
Should withdraw after this so she's fresh enough to win Wimbledon
>WEAK MIND
this cant be fucking happening
pain
It's happening AGAIN!At least that's what it seems.
Holy mother of kwab
Loool
>turn on >Emma gets KWABed immediately>turn off
It's never easy with Emma
its so embarrassing that i dont even know what to say
HOW COULD THIS HAPPEN TO MEEEEEEEEI'VE MADE MY MISTAAAAAAAAAKESGOT NO WHERE TO RUNNNNNN
*mind breaks your waifu*
>>142083658You're doing gods work, brother.Just not the wierd first part.FUCKthis match is intense.
Do either of them actually want to win? They're not behaving like people who want to win
Beyond pathetic, holy shit
>>142085530It would seem like that they only want to win when they are losing.
You were saying?
I wonder if she can do it this time without shitting herself in public
hahahahahaha surely she won't fuck it up form here hahahaha right bros????????
First top 10 win finally happening? Top 5 even?
>>142085705We thought that 20 minutes ago and she weakminded it away
Emlingz
this is emotionally exhausting
She'll win the tb, relax
>>142085788This is what I felt with her in Berlin
Pegula is completely fucking it up too, although in a less spectacular way. This is the most WTA set of tennis ever
Seriously, do they not want to win?
EMMAAAAAAAAAAA
NEVER IN DOUBT
TOP 5 WIN
EMAAAAAAAAA MY PRECIOUS EMMAAAAAA FUCK THE HATERS NEVER IN DOUBRT
APOLOGIZE
Whats that Emma haters? Emma's never beaten a top 10 opponent?
>>142080961Never in doubt!
EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA EMMA
FIRST TOP 10 VICTORY
she'll have a bbc to celebrate with tonight then get knocked out next round
>winning after choking that harddon't know if strongmind or weakmind anymore.
This will taint Pegula's career forever, disgraceful
>>142086111The haters are apparently living rent free in your head
This has to be a confidence boosterthink I have to stay more critical of her for motivation
>>142086148Pegula weakmind was even weaker. Four break points and couldn't do it.
Absolute PEAK>WTA
She's still a disgrace
>>142086124>>142086068>>142086055>>142086048F'off
Mi gente now that's over which Euros match should I switch to?
