It’s a special week for Jessica Pegula this week, as she returns to Charleston as the top seed and defending champion, having captured the first tour-level clay-court title of her career at the WTA 500-level event last year.
But there’s more.
Today, the world No. 5 kicks off her milestone 200th career week inside the Top 10 of the WTA rankings.
And it’s all consecutive—she first broke into the Top 10 on June 6th, 2022, rising from No. 11 to No. 8 after reaching the quarterfinals of Roland Garros, and she hasn’t left since.
It’s the third-longest active streak among the current WTA Top 10, after the usual suspects, Aryna Sabalenka and Iga Swiatek.
