Karolina Muchova saved a match point before coming through an epic deciding-set tie-break to beat Coco Gauff and reach a first Wimbledon final.<\/b><\/p>\n

Muchova started the semi-final the stronger of the pair but Gauff hit back, and they could barely be separated in a high-quality third set.<\/p>\n

Two-time Grand Slam champion Gauff came back from 4-1 down in the resulting tie-break and had match point on her serve, before sending a simple forehand into the net tape.<\/p>\n

Muchova also missed her first match point but it was she who stood triumphant at the end after an astonishing 6-2 1-6 7-6 (12-10) win in sweltering conditions on Centre Court.<\/p>\n

The Czech 10th had reached four major semi-finals before Thursday’s match against Gauff, but only once made the final – at the 2023 French Open, where she was beaten in three sets by Iga Swiatek.<\/p>\n

But Muchova will get another shot at Grand Slam glory on Saturday, where she will face either compatriot Linda Noskova or Ukraine’s 12th seed Marta Kostyuk.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
