Pegula, visibly affected, had tape on her left knee.\n\nDespite having defeated Cocciaretto in their only previous encounter at Wimbledon 2023, Pegula only managed five winners and committed 24 unforced errors. Furthermore, her performance with the second serve was low, winning only 42% of the points.\n\n\n<p>This is the first time the American has lost in the first round of a Grand Slam event since the 2020 French Open.<\/p>\n\n\nCocciaretto will face the winner of the match between Tatiana Maria of Germany or the American Katie Volynets in the second round.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jessica Pegula Surprisingly Eliminated at Wimbledon American tennis player and number 3 seed, Jessica Pegula, suffered an unexpected defeat in the first round of Wimbledon, marking her earliest elimination in a Grand Slam tournament since 2020.
