## Resource

A gatekeeper, a consistent threat, not-a-pusher, and the social and political glue behind the scenes: Jessica Pegula has gone from tennis’s rich girl to a key piece of the bloc of players who reliably fight for the biggest titles on the WTA Tour. This week, she’s just won her 4th 1000-level title and has been announced as the chair of the new tour working group: the Tour Architecture Council. Elsewhere, Carlos continues his dominant start, Fils notches a runner-up spot in his third tournament back, Korda impresses in Florida, and Etcheverry plays for six hours in one day to grab his first career title. Plus, Tara Moore is not taking her suspension lying down, as she sues the WTA for failing to warn players about contaminated meat. 0:35 A trip down figure skating memory lane 7:15 Carlos dominates Doha 10:45 Korda’s comeback, Etcheverry’s endurance run through Rio 17:15 Consistency Queen Jessica Pegula wins Dubai 22:40 Qinwen’s Emmy-winning guest appearance on The Player's Box 28:00 Peggy to lead the Tour Architecture Council 32:25 Tara Moore sues the WTA 40:30 Monica and Brandy
