On The Player’s Box podcast, Zheng Qinwen had the chance to ask Jessica Pegula a question and stayed true to her blunt, no-filter style, going straight to the point and leaving the American laughing uncontrollably.

Chinese tennis fans have even nicknamed Pegula “Dafu” (u5927u5bcc), which roughly translates to “Big Rich” or “Big Wealthy,” a nod to her status as the daughter of billionaire businessman Terry Pegula.
