NEW YORK: Madison Keys stunned third seed Jessica Pegula 6-1, 6-3 in an all-American clash on Arthur Ashe Stadium on Monday, reaching the US Open quarterfinal for the first time since 2018.
Pegula beat the 17th seed Keys in their only previous meeting last year and was considered as one of the US’s brightest hopes after winning the Montreal title last month.“I’ve had so many amazing moments in New York,” said Keys, who is playing in her 12th US Open main draw. She next plays Wimbledon champion Marketa Vondrousova, who overcame a rocky start to beat American Peyton Stearns 6-7, 6-3, 6-2.
Pegula was clearly off her game and threw her racquet down in frustration as she helped Keys to the break with a double fault and a backhand error in the fifth game of the second set.
