Jessica Pegula begins her Credit One Charleston Open title defense as top seed and world No. 5 against Yulia Putintseva in the second round on fast green clay, holding a dominant 3-0 head-to-head edge, including straight-sets wins on hard and clay. Pegula enters fresh off a first-round bye after reaching Australian Open semifinals and pushing Elena Rybakina to three sets in Miami quarters, having managed a chronic left knee injury that sidelined her from Austin in February. Putintseva, ranked No. 52, grinded past Lulu Sun 7-6(6), 6-2 in the opener, leveraging her defensive variety and clay affinity as a former Charleston quarterfinalist. Pegula's superior power and return game favor her, though Putintseva's rhythm from match play adds upset intrigue.
