2x Grand Slam Champ Clears Stance on US Open Crowd After Defeating Emma Navarro

Do you recall the third-round clash at Wimbledon 2025 between Emma Navarro and Barbora Krejcikova? Despite Krejcikova taking the opening set, it was the American tennis star who flipped the script, storming back to claim the second set 6-3 with commanding authority. Fair enough, her Czech opponent was hampered by injury, repeatedly bending between points, but Navarro seized the moment and made it count. Fast-forward to today—guess who turned that very pain into fuel to claim one of the biggest victories of her career?

Barbora Krejcikova certainly has a knack for restoring balance on her terms. The 29-year-old, who once again faced Emma Navarro in the third round of the US Open 2025, trailed the American in the opening set before flipping the match in her favor, sealing an emphatic 4-6, 6-4, 6-4 victory to book her place in the round of 16 at the year’s final Grand Slam. And while Krejcikova’s clean racket swings and steely perseverance did the heavy lifting, she made sure not to overlook the raucous crowd support that helped her ride a wave of momentum when she needed it most. “First of all, thank you. I mean, it was a huge match for me,” began the 2x Grand Slam champion in the post-game interview.

“I definitely enjoyed it very much and victory for the last game; the crowd, the cheering, and all that, it buzz me up. So thank you guys, even though it wasn’t for me, that’s okay. Yeah, I mean, I definitely enjoyed playing this evening, and it was very, very difficult,” concluded the former ranked world No. 2 in singles and world No. 1 in doubles by the WTA.
