Jessica Pegula will be going for the double on Saturday in Doha.
Pegula and her familiar sidekick Coco Gauff claimed the doubles title on Friday with a 6-4, 2-6 10-7 triumph over second-seeded Jelena Ostapenko and Nadia Kichenok.
The victory marked a successful title defense for the American tandem. Pegula claims her sixth career title; Gauff claims her seventh. The pair have won four titles together as a tandem, adding this year’s Doha title to last year’s – they also claimed trophies at Toronto and San Diego in 2022, as well as reaching the final at Roland-Garros.
