Jessica Pegula reflected on her title win!
"To be able to come here this week after a long two weeks in Miami and take the title is just incredible. I just realized how tired I was. She started to play at a high level, there were a couple of games I didn't get out of, didn't break, didn't hold. It was super windy, super tough conditions. If you lose focus for a split second or stop moving your feet for a second, it just swings so fast. It was the same way for both of us," Pegula said after the win.
