Third-seeded Jessica Pegula was upset in the first round at Wimbledon, losing 6-2, 6-3 to 116th-ranked Elisabetta Cocciaretto for the American’s earliest exit at a Grand Slam tournament in five years.

With the win, Cocciaretto will advance to the second round at Wimbledon for the third time in her career. She made it as far as the third round in 2023, but missed the tournament in 2024 due to an illness.

On Tuesday at the All England Lawn and Tennis Club, American Jessica Pegula and German Alexander Zverev each were shockingly ousted in the opening round of the tournament. First came the stunning win by world No. 116 Elisabetta Cocciaretto of Italy, who knocked out Pegula 6-2, 6-3 in 58 minutes.
