Pegula and Krejcikova had a bad start to the WTA Finals and their match was an “everything” match. Pegula lost in the first match to Coco Gauff, and Krejcikova lost to Iga Świątek. The American was considered the favorite. During the broadcast, fans could see the percentage predictions of analysts, who gave Pegula a 64 percent chance of winning.

Krejcikova on top in the match against Pegula. Świątek can advance today

The first set was very even for the most part. Both players made no mistakes on their serves. There wasn’t even a single break point until the seventh game. After that, the set was dominated by Krejcikova. She broke Pegula and won the game on her serve, making it 5:3 for the Czech. And if that wasn’t enough, in the ninth game Krejcikova broke the American again and won the first game 6:3.

And this was not the end of Pegula’s drama. Already at the beginning of the second set, Krejcikowa took a 2-0 lead. Then the winning percentage chances we mentioned above changed dramatically. This time, the algorithm gave Krejcikowa an 86 percent chance of winning. Just then there was a small twist, because Pegula broke the Czech, but then she lost her serve again and lost 1:4 in the second set. Until the end of the match, she was unable to change the fate of the match. The second set ended the same as the first – Krejcikova won 6:3.

Krejcikova’s win is good news for Iga Świątek. However, to fully enjoy this turn of events, the Pole must win against Coco Gauff. If this happens, the runner-up in the ranking will already be guaranteed promotion to the semi-finals. The match is scheduled to start at 4 p.m. Live coverage on Sport.pl and the Sport.pl LIVE mobile application.

**Interview with Sports Analyst Maria Lopez on the WTA Finals**

**Interviewer:** Good⁤ afternoon,‍ Maria! Thanks for joining us today. The WTA Finals in Riyadh have kicked off, and⁣ we’ve already seen some surprising results. ‍What ⁤are your thoughts‍ on Pegula and Krejcikova’s performance thus far?

**Maria Lopez:** Thank you for having me!⁢ It’s been quite an eventful⁣ start to the WTA Finals. Jessica Pegula and Barbora Krejcikova both faced tough ⁢opponents right out of the ‍gate. Pegula, who many considered a favorite, lost to Coco Gauff, which was‌ shocking given that analysts gave her a 64% chance of ⁣winning. It just goes to show‍ that⁤ in tennis, anything‌ can happen.

**Interviewer:** Absolutely. What do you think went wrong for Pegula in her match against Gauff?

**Maria Lopez:** It seems like Pegula⁤ struggled to find her rhythm. Gauff played brilliantly, forcing Pegula into uncomfortable positions on the court. The⁢ pressure of high expectations might have added to her performance issues. This is particularly tough ‌in a high-stakes tournament like the WTA Finals, where every match counts significantly.

**Interviewer:** And Krejcikova’s loss to Iga Świątek — what’s ⁤your take on that‍ match?

**Maria Lopez:**⁣ Krejcikova is an incredibly‌ talented player, but Świątek’s ⁤aggression ‍and consistency on the court were too much to‍ handle. I⁢ think it​ was a combination of ‌Świątek’s⁣ polished game⁤ style and Krejcikova’s‌ inability to adapt quickly enough. The ‍competition is fierce this year, and it’s clear that every player needs to bring their A-game.

**Interviewer:** With those early disappointments, what do you think ‌the rest of the tournament holds for ​Pegula ⁢and Krejcikova?

**Maria Lopez:** They need to regroup⁣ mentally and focus⁣ on⁣ their next matches. The tournament isn’t over yet, and they can still fight⁣ for a spot in the semifinals. It’s crucial they learn from these losses and adjust their strategies accordingly. ‍A strong comeback is‌ always ‍possible in tennis!

**Interviewer:** Great insights, Maria! Thanks for sharing your thoughts.​ We’ll be keeping an‍ eye on ‌how they bounce back​ in​ the coming matches.

**Maria ⁢Lopez:** Thank you! I’m excited to see how the rest of the tournament unfolds.
