The pegula part is of Korean origin; She is the elder daughter of a South Korean mother, Kim Pegula, and the middle daughter of American professional sports investor and natural gas tycoon Terry Pegula. Pegula lives in West Palm Beach, FL. In August 2016, it was announced that Pegula and her sister would open a quick service restaurant called Healthy Scratch in Lecome HarborCenter, an ice hockey themed mixed-use development owned by her parents in Buffalo, New York.

On August 30, 2011, Pegula was awarded a wildcard in the main draw of the US Open doubles tournament, where she was paired with Taylor Townsend. They eventually lost in the third round to the third seeded team of Vania King and Yaroslava Shvedova.
In March 2012, Pegula was given a wildcard for the qualifying draw at Indian Wells, and surprised highly ranked players Bojana Jovanovski and Paula Ormachea to qualify for the main draw where she lost to Magdalena Rybarikova in three sets.
2015: Grand Slam singles debut and first WTA win at the US Open
Pegula made her Grand Slam singles debut as a qualifier at the 2015 US Open. She defeated Shuko Aoyama, Margarita Gasparyan and Melanie Oudin to advance to the main draw where she defeated Alison Van Uytwank in the first round. In the second, Pegula was defeated by Dominika Cibulkova in three sets.
Billionaire
So far he has earned an impressive £1m in prize money – but what he stands to inherit is just a drop in the ocean.
Because she is the beautiful daughter of Terry Pegula, who has made a fortune of £3.6 billion from natural gas development.
The self-made businessman is the owner of the NFL legend Buffalo Bills – which he bought in 2014 after toppling Donald Trump and Bon Jovi and several other sports franchises.
And if that’s not enough, Jessica can even take her father’s £14million superyacht for a spin in her downtime.
Amazingly, he is richer than the combined worth of Roger Federer, Serena Williams and Maria Sharapova.
Father
His daughter is trying to reach the quarterfinals in Melbourne for the second year in a row. She fell to Jennifer Brady in that round last year, in what remains her only Grand Slam quarterfinal appearance.
Pegula, ranked 21 in the latest WTA rankings, will face fifth seed Maria Sakkari on Saturday. Sakkari reached the semi-finals of the French Open and the US Open last year. She has never progressed beyond the fourth round of the Australian Open.
Sakkari will be a difficult obstacle for Pegula to overcome. They have played each other twice in their careers, and the Greek star came out on top both times. Just last month, the two faced off in the Miami Masters Round of 16 and Sakkari won 6-4, 2-6, 7-6 (6).
