Jessica Pegula attended a press conference after the United States' defeat in the Billie Jean King Cup final against Italy. Personally, Pegula was defeated by Jasmine Paolini, while her compatriot Emma Navarro lost to Elisabetta Cocciaretto.

Despite the defeat, the American prefers to take the positives: "We had an incredible week. It wasn't the expected result today. It just wasn't our day.

I think that, at the same time, we really enjoyed the competition together, reaching the final and overcoming many difficulties. Today, we failed.

Overall, I think we want to build on what we learned this week to continue improving.

Since February 2022 and the invasion of Ukraine by Russia, Ukrainian sport has been heavily affected by human, structural and economic losses. Tennis has, of course, not been spared. While Ukrainian athletes have had to rethink their entire organization, an entire country, behind the scenes, has had to adapt and change its training conditions. This extends all the way to the highest level, where professional players have spoken out, trying as best they can to help their nation.

The finals are here, and we scramble for the best finish. I've been chasing "King" all year and I was able to shrink the spread a little. Skelp is also closing the gap.

Seasons best to all the regulars in our league.

Will you all be back in the new year.?

Steffi Graf completed a Golden Slam (not just a career Grand Slam) when she was 19. She is the only person to accomplish that, winning the four majors plus Olympic gold the same calendar year.
