LONDON: American fourth seed Jessica Pegula reached the Wimbledon quarter-finals for the second time with a comeback victory over compatriot Iva Jovic in the last 16 on Sunday.
The 32-year-old showed her experience to defeat teenager Jovic 4-6, 6-3, 6-1 on Court One and set up a tie against either Bencic.
Pegula, who has never won a Grand Slam title, last played in the quarters at the All England Club in 2023 when she lost to eventual champion Marketa Vondrousova.
