FORT WORTH, Texas (AP) — Jessica Pegula has finished winless in singles in the American’s WTA Finals debut, losing to Aryna Sabalenka 6-3, 7-5 in a round-robin finale. Sabalenka had to wait for the outcome of the late match between No. 2 Ons Jabeur and fifth-ranked Maria Sakkari to see if she advanced to the semifinals. Sakkari has already clinched a spot. The 24-year-old Sabalenka didn’t get out of the group stage in her WTA Finals debut last year in Guadalajara. The third-ranked Pegula was 0-5 overall going into a late doubles match with partner Coco Gauff. Pegula and Gauff are already eliminated in doubles.
