Jessica Pegula won the seventh title of her career yesterday in Austin, after defeating her compatriot McCartney Kessler in the final.

But after the end of the tournament in both draws (singles and doubles), the world No. 4 decided to take a plane to Indian Wells with the other finalists.

Anna Blinkova and Yue Yuan, winners in the doubles draw, as well as Shuai Zhang and Kessler (already a finalist in singles), found themselves on the same private jet, thanks to a very kind proposal from Pegula.

It was Yuan who revealed the information on her social media: "All the players were invited on a private jet together. Thank you so much! Otherwise, it would have been a nine-hour drive tomorrow."

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.
