Navarro defeats Pegula at Madison Square Garden exhibition
Madison Square Garden enjoyed a fine evening of tennis, as it saw two exhibition matches, between Jessica Pegula and Emma Navarro, as well as Ben Shelton facing Carlos Alcaraz.
It was Navarro who came out on top in this American women's duel, with a score of 7-6, 7-5. The match was played in a relaxed atmosphere, with the players interviewing each other at the end of the first set.
Even if this break could be construed as product placement, given the ostentatious way in which the drinks were shown. The crowd was out in force to cheer on the local players.
