Jessica Pegula vs. Anca Todoni Preview
Jessica Pegula arrives in Roland Garros to win her first Grand Slam tournament. She came close to the Grand Slam glory last year when she lost to Sabalenka in US Open final. The American ace was a runner-up at Miami Open and won her first career title on clay by winning the Charleston Open. She had a quarterfinal run in Stuttgart Open. In Madrid and Italian Open, the US No. 2 lost in the round-of-32.
To prepare for the French Open, Pegula participated in the Internationaux de Strasbourg but lost in the round-of-16. The 31-year-old posted a 28-10 win-loss record in 2025, including an 8-4 record on clay. In last 6 matches, she lost four and her recent clay-court performance has been concerning. However, Pegula has a great experience and the glory at Charleston Open will make him a superior player in first-round.
Anca Todoni failed to get through the qualifiers at Indian Wells, Madrid and Rome. The 20-year-old has posted a 6-1 record on the clay court this year but French Open would be a biggest stage for Todoni. The Romanian ace will play her first ever Roland Garros match after qualifying into the main draw. She recently made debut at Australian Open but lost the opening game. She will enter the French Open as a top-100 player. This year, she won her third WTA 125 title at the Antalya Challenger, defeating Leyre Romero Gormaz in the final.
