Pegula, seeded four here, had been a member of the numerical elite for quite some time, with nine career titles to her name. But at the slams she tends to bump up against the limitations of her own athleticism, doing no better than the last eight apart from in this tournament last year, when she made the final and kept it tight for bit, but was ultimately outclassed by Aryna Sabalenka.&lt;\/p&gt;&quot;,&quot;elementId&quot;:&quot;0878fc91-4ab9-453f-b0a4-172d8bbd9681&quot;},{&quot;_type&quot;:&quot;model.dotcomrendering.pageElements.TextBlockElement&quot;,&quot;html&quot;:&quot;&lt;p&gt;What will grate is that in the time she\u2019s been good, all manner of player ostensibly less so \u2013 and not just those naturally faster and stronger \u2013 have won majors. Take Barbora Krejcikova, for example. Previously renowned as a doubles specialist, she\u2019s won both Roland-Garros and Wimbledon, relying not otherworldly power, rather an all-court game supported by the ability, mentality and feel to produce her best when it really matters.&lt;\/p&gt;&quot;,&quot;elementId&quot;:&quot;45c3fef6-017b-4b19-ac70-1c7d2b73bd32&quot;},{&quot;_type&quot;:&quot;model.dotcomrendering.pageElements.TextBlockElement&quot;,&quot;html&quot;:&quot;&lt;p&gt;So far, this has largely been beyond Pegula who, at 31, is running out of time.

Maybe so, but she\u2019s soon under it again, a winner and an error making 40-30, before Krejcikova goes corner to corner, a forehand winner getting her on the board in set two.<\/p>\n<footer class=\"dcr-3i7iba\"><gu-island name=\"ShareButton\" priority=\"feature\" deferuntil=\"visible\" props=\"{&quot;size&quot;:&quot;xsmall&quot;,&quot;pageId&quot;:&quot;sport\/live\/2025\/sep\/02\/us-open-tennis-2025-pegula-alcaraz-quarter-finals-day-ten-live&quot;,&quot;blockId&quot;:&quot;68b71c7e8f08020a75f11ffb&quot;,&quot;webTitle&quot;:&quot;US Open 2025: Pegula and Alcaraz in quarter-final action on day 10 \u2013 live&quot;,&quot;format&quot;:{&quot;design&quot;:11,&quot;display&quot;:0,&quot;theme&quot;:2},&quot;context&quot;:&quot;LiveBlock&quot;}\"><a href=\"mailto:?subject=US Open 2025: Pegula and Alcaraz in quarter-final action on day 10 \u2013 live&amp;body=https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/sport\/live\/2025\/sep\/02\/us-open-tennis-2025-pegula-alcaraz-quarter-finals-day-ten-live?CMP=share_btn_url&amp;page=with%3Ablock-68b71c7e8f08020a75f11ffb#block-68b71c7e8f08020a75f11ffb\" type=\"button\" class=\"dcr-1mulgdf\">Share<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewbox=\"-3 -3 30 30\" focusable=\"false\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><path fill-rule=\"evenodd\" clip-rule=\"evenodd\" d=\"M19 16c1.675 0 3 1.35 3 3 0 1.675-1.325 3-3 3a2.97 2.97 0 0 1-2.975-3c0-.125 0-.275.025-.375L7.1 14.15a2.9 2.9 0 0 1-2.075.825C3.325 14.975 2 13.65 2 12a3.004 3.004 0 0 1 3.025-3.025c.775 0 1.5.35 2.075.875l8.95-4.475c-.025-.1-.025-.225-.025-.4A2.966 2.966 0 0 1 19 2c1.675 0 3 1.325 3 2.975C22 6.65 20.675 8 19 8c-.8 0-1.475-.325-2.05-.825l-8.975 4.45C8 11.7 8 11.825 8 12s0 .3-.025.375l8.975 4.45c.575-.5 1.25-.825 2.05-.825m0-12.8c-.975 0-1.8.775-1.8 1.775S18.025 6.8 19 6.8c1 0 1.825-.825 1.825-1.825S20 3.2 19 3.2m0 17.6c1 0 1.825-.825 1.825-1.8 0-1-.825-1.8-1.825-1.8-.975 0-1.8.8-1.8 1.8 0 .975.825 1.8 1.8 1.8\"\/><\/svg><\/a><\/gu-island><\/footer>\n<\/article>\n<aside data-ad-slot=\"true\" class=\"ad-slot-container ad-slot-desktop dcr-jko40v\"\/>\n<aside data-ad-slot=\"true\" class=\"ad-slot-container dcr-jko40v\"\/>\n<article id=\"block-68b71bc48f08bb514e0fa96f\" class=\"block dcr-1os4bxs\">\n<header class=\"dcr-88va8u\"\/>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\"><strong>*Pegula 6-3 2-0 Krejcikova <\/strong>If Pegula consolidates here, she\u2019ll feel close to the finish line, shaking her feet at 30-15, to keep herself moving; she knows how important these next points are.

All that hard work to get back into the set, and now she must break again to avoid losing it.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"7c7082b1-8804-471e-ba12-9dde91914bf2\" data-spacefinder-role=\"inline\" data-spacefinder-type=\"model.dotcomrendering.pageElements.VideoYoutubeBlockElement\" class=\"dcr-173mewl\">\n<div data-component=\"youtube-embed\" class=\"dcr-13aa88h\">\n<p><iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube-nocookie.com\/embed\/st0H_Ey4oL0?start=1&amp;wmode=opaque&amp;feature=oembed&amp;start=1\" title=\"Jana Novotna's Wimbledon journey\" height=\"480\" width=\"854\" allowfullscreen=\"\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<footer class=\"dcr-3i7iba\"><gu-island name=\"ShareButton\" priority=\"feature\" deferuntil=\"visible\" props=\"{&quot;size&quot;:&quot;xsmall&quot;,&quot;pageId&quot;:&quot;sport\/live\/2025\/sep\/02\/us-open-tennis-2025-pegula-alcaraz-quarter-finals-day-ten-live&quot;,&quot;blockId&quot;:&quot;68b718ad8f08bb514e0fa937&quot;,&quot;webTitle&quot;:&quot;US Open 2025: Pegula and Alcaraz in quarter-final action on day 10 \u2013 live&quot;,&quot;format&quot;:{&quot;design&quot;:11,&quot;display&quot;:0,&quot;theme&quot;:2},&quot;context&quot;:&quot;LiveBlock&quot;}\"><a href=\"mailto:?subject=US Open 2025: Pegula and Alcaraz in quarter-final action on day 10 \u2013 live&amp;body=https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/sport\/live\/2025\/sep\/02\/us-open-tennis-2025-pegula-alcaraz-quarter-finals-day-ten-live?CMP=share_btn_url&amp;page=with%3Ablock-68b718ad8f08bb514e0fa937#block-68b718ad8f08bb514e0fa937\" type=\"button\" class=\"dcr-1mulgdf\">Share<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewbox=\"-3 -3 30 30\" focusable=\"false\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><path fill-rule=\"evenodd\" clip-rule=\"evenodd\" d=\"M19 16c1.675 0 3 1.35 3 3 0 1.675-1.325 3-3 3a2.97 2.97 0 0 1-2.975-3c0-.125 0-.275.025-.375L7.1 14.15a2.9 2.9 0 0 1-2.075.825C3.325 14.975 2 13.65 2 12a3.004 3.004 0 0 1 3.025-3.025c.775 0 1.5.35 2.075.875l8.95-4.475c-.025-.1-.025-.225-.025-.4A2.966 2.966 0 0 1 19 2c1.675 0 3 1.325 3 2.975C22 6.65 20.675 8 19 8c-.8 0-1.475-.325-2.05-.825l-8.975 4.45C8 11.7 8 11.825 8 12s0 .3-.025.375l8.975 4.45c.575-.5 1.25-.825 2.05-.825m0-12.8c-.975 0-1.8.775-1.8 1.775S18.025 6.8 19 6.8c1 0 1.825-.825 1.825-1.825S20 3.2 19 3.2m0 17.6c1 0 1.825-.825 1.825-1.8 0-1-.825-1.8-1.825-1.8-.975 0-1.8.8-1.8 1.8 0 .975.825 1.8 1.8 1.8\"\/><\/svg><\/a><\/gu-island><\/footer>\n<\/article>\n<aside data-ad-slot=\"true\" class=\"ad-slot-container ad-slot-desktop dcr-jko40v\"\/>\n<article id=\"block-68b7177b8f08bb514e0fa90c\" class=\"block dcr-1os4bxs\">\n<header class=\"dcr-88va8u\"\/>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\"><strong>*Pegula 4-3 Krejcikova <\/strong>A double hands Krejcikova 15-30, then a forehand on to the line earns two break-back points; she\u2019s nearly back in a set she might easily have lost heavily.

Excitement increasing as competition escalates while, at the back of our minds, that nagging sense of loss because we\u2019re nearing the end. But let\u2019s lozz that for now because awaiting us today are a pair of potentially terrific matches.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">In a sense, Jess Pegula and Barbora Krejcikova are opposites. Pegula, seeded four here, had been a member of the numerical elite for quite some time, with nine career titles to her name. But at the slams she tends to bump up against the limitations of her own athleticism, doing no better than the last eight apart from in this tournament last year, when she made the final and kept it tight for bit, but was ultimately outclassed by Aryna Sabalenka.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">What will grate is that in the time she\u2019s been good, all manner of player ostensibly less so \u2013 and not just those naturally faster and stronger \u2013 have won majors. Take Barbora Krejcikova, for example. Previously renowned as a doubles specialist, she\u2019s won both Roland-Garros and Wimbledon, relying not otherworldly power, rather an all-court game supported by the ability, mentality and feel to produce her best when it really matters.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">So far, this has largely been beyond Pegula who, at 31, is running out of time. But if she hits her top level or close to it, she\u2019ll expect to win here and rightly so.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">Following them on to court are Jiri Lehecka and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/sport\/carlos-alcaraz\" data-link-name=\"in body link\" data-component=\"auto-linked-tag\">Carlos Alcaraz<\/a>, whose match in the final of Queen\u2019s was closely contested \u2013 until it got close, whereupon suddenly it wasn\u2019t. Ultimately, there was a sense throughout that the world no 2 would do whatever ended up being necessary to win, which intensifies over the longer distance.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">However if Lehecka serves well, taking any set off him is difficult \u2013 at Queen\u2019s, the first went to 7-5 and he took the second 7-6. Though he\u2019ll have to play the match of his life to make this a serious contest, he\u2019s already beaten Alcaraz on hard this season and, at 23, will feel ready to take the next step.
