Jessica Pegula’s charge for a second straight Charleston title is on, and she will be facing Elisabetta Cocciaretto in the third round. This will be the third match between the two players but their first meeting on clay. Read on for our prediction.
Top seed Pegula registered her sixth straight win in Charleston, beating Yulia Putintseva in three sets. That win took her season’s record to an impressive 20-4.
Now placed sixth in the live rank, the American will be seeking revenge for her defeat to Cocciaretto in their most recent meeting, on grass in Wimbledon.
The 32-year-old is gunning for her second title of the season, having won one earlier in Dubai. In each of her events this season, she hasn’t failed to reach the quarters.
Cocciaretto is a strong player on clay and will be hoping to fully display her prowess here. The last time she featured in a clay event, she emerged as the winner in Bastad, 2025.
The Italian saw off Yuan Yue in straight sets in the last round, registering her seventh win in the last 10 matches. The 14th seed in Charleston arrives for this match having compiled a 16-5 record and is expected to give Pegula a big fight, as she also chases her second tour title this season.
The 25-year-old won the title in Hobart, and making her third appearance here, she has already surpassed her best performance from the previous showings.
