Italian Elisabetta Cocciaretto defeated American Jessica Pegula, the No 3 seed, 6-2, 6-3 to advance to the second round of Wimbledon at the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club in London on Tuesday.
Pegula came into the Championships off the back of a title-winning run at the Bad Homburg Open, where she defeated Iga Swiatek in the final.
The American, however, couldn’t get going on Tuesday, crashing out in less than an hour. She was broken four times by Cocciaretto and could only hit five winners to the Italian’s 17. She sprayed 24 unforced errors, including four double faults.
Elisabetta Cocciaretto, take a bow 👏
