Boisson was the lowest player to enter the fourth round of the French Open since Serena Williams, who was World 451 at the time and rarely played in the tour in 2018.
She is still the lowest player to reach the big quarterfinals since the 2017 U.S. Open World 418 Kaia Kanepi.
Boisson’s situation was very different 12 months ago.
After a successful series of performances in the WTA 125 Championship (the third time in women’s tennis), Boisson earned a wildcard for her home grand slam.
However, a week before the clay game started, Boyson teared the ACL to his left knee. She couldn’t get herself to watch last year’s French Open and then missed nine months of the season.
The tattoo of the word “elastic” on her right elbow reminds her that hard work is worth it – beating Pegula is solid evidence of this.
Pegula’s consistency in the first set was removed, and the Americans used drop shots before they took a second footage.
She broke up at Pegula but lost immediately, and then told Pegula at 4-4.
Boisson’s two simple misses and a breathtaking backhand champion allowed her to serve the scene, and she quickly loved forcing the decision-maker.
Boisson was inspired by the crowd and broke up immediately, but Pegula kept falling off and showed up in the family’s favorite nerve.
However, at 4-4, Pegula blinked again. Boisson breaks the game by merging the breakpoint with clever touch and power.
She roared in celebration after her victory, stood in the middle of the courtroom, soaking her arms high in the atmosphere.
Boisson is the last eight French women since Caroline Garcia and Kristina Mladenovic in 2017.
