In an unexpected twist, American tennis star Jessica Pegula spent time experiencing public transport in Paris, deviating from her usual private jet journeys. The French Open third seed recently took a discreet ride on the famous Paris Metro and was pleased with the experience.

Navigating the city's underground largely unnoticed, the 31-year-old talked about her unrecognized journey during a press conference, highlighting the comfort and cleanliness of the Paris Metro compared to New York's subway.
