On the other hand, America's Jessica Pegula's dream of reaching the semi-finals of the Grand Slam could not be fulfilled again. She could not overcome the challenge of Vondrousova. Marketa, who made it to the final of the 2019 French Open, defeated Pegula 6-4, 2-6, 6-4 to reach the semi-finals of Wimbledon for the first time.
Pegul has not yet reached the semi-finals of the Grand Slam
Pegula has reached the quarterfinals of all four Grand Slams from 2022 to 2023, Australian, French, Wimbledon, and US Open. She wanted to make it to the semi-finals of a Grand Slam for the first time.

Marketa dominated the match with her strong serve. She served seven aces in the entire match, while 67 percent of her points came on the first serve. On the other hand, Pegula could not do well on her first serve. She could win only 57 percent of points on her first serve. However, both players broke each other's serve five times in the entire match.
