US tennis star Jessica Pegula, the daughter of Buffalo Bills owners Terry and Kim Pegula, was the last American woman standing at the U.S. Open this week.
Pegula faced a tough test in the quarterfinals, however, facing off against World No. 1 Iga Swiatek at Arthur Ashe Stadium on Wednesday night.
Unfortunately for Pegula, she was unable to get past the Polish star and lost in straight sets, 6-3, 7-6 (7-4).
After the match, Pegula met with the media and did something that any American can relate to… she cracked open an ice cold beer. For Pegula, Heineken is the beer of choice to drown her sorrows.
