The defending champion rolled to a 6-2, 6-2 victory over D.C.'s Hailey Baptiste.

And though Pegula said her dog wouldn’t be making the trip to the capital, the changes of the past three years were on full display Monday. “And now here we are, a few years later, and I’m at my highest ranking — top 10 in the world.” And with a straight-sets defeat of Camila Giorgi in the final, that’s exactly what she did. For a time, she was even her own agent, scheduling her own travel and registering herself in tournaments. And on the court, Pegula was dealing with an identity crisis. “I put on a lot of pressure and elongated a lot of her service games, and I know from personal experience that it’s really tough to hold,” Pegula said.
