Pegula is of part Korean descent; she is the older daughter of a South Korean mother, Kim Pegula and the middle daughter of American professional sports investor and natural gas tycoon Terry Pegula. Pegula resides in West Palm Beach, FL. In August 2016, it was announced that Pegula and her sister would be opening a quick serve restaurant called Healthy Scratch in LECOM Harborcenter, an ice hockey themed mixed-use development owned by her parents in Buffalo, New York. The Healthy Scratch business was to be expanded to food truck service in 2017. In 2017, Pegula introduced her own skincare line called Ready 24. On August 30, 2011, Pegula was granted a wildcard exemption into 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.

Garcia’s breakthrough in doubles stemmed from her partnership with Mladenovic in 2016. The pair won four titles together, the greatest of which was the French Open title. The Frenchwomen were the 2016 WTA Doubles Team of the Year. During the next season they focused on the singles with Garcia becoming the first player ever to win Wuhan and Beijing in the same year. Playing for France at the Fed Cup, Garcia has a win-loss record of 8–4 in singles and 5–1 in doubles. She was awarded a Heart Award for her sportsmanship, and led her country to the 2016 Fed Cup final, France’s first final since 2005.
