2026 Wimbledon Women's SF: Gauff vs. Muchova

[PhiEaglesfan712]

Gauff has owned this matchup. Can Muchova turn the tables and get over the hump, or is Coco going to move one step closer to the 3rd leg of a career grand slam?

I don't know if Coco wins the whole thing but my money is on her making the final at least. Coco in straights.

I don't know what to think but I hope Coco wins

I think MM and Kelli’s girl is a dangerous match up for a Coco fan like myself and others..We know coco is either gonna start out slow or if she will loose her focus sometimes during the match. My great doubles partner says he doesn’t watch her matches.. well I will watch because sometimes Coco is must see tv..it would be nice if Coco would for one GS mimic Graf, Hingis, Seles or Serena when you knew they would make the right decision and not to let the match get away from them mentally. I will on my sandbox configurations (virtual machine on my laptop) and turn down the tv who will continue to talk about her poor serve and erratic FH.

Muchova is 52% projected winner on the tennis.com site.

If Muchova is up 5-1 with 40% first serve percentage, this one is going to be tough for Coco to come back.

Hello Friend

Coco turned the match around in the 2nd set, because she started playing aggressive, as I have discussed with you in the past, on grass in the past she has been 'too defensive' as I have always said to you Coco has the game for grass, she has to remain playing with 'controlled aggression" thats what happened in the 2nd set, also Muchova level did dip
Both players are 'locked in' in the 3rd and final set at 5 all, I thought this match would go 3
Coco has been returning really well in the 3rd set.
TB for the 3rd set 6 all, the TB is 10 points

Muchova reminds of a a player from the 80's and I cannot figure out who and it is driving me crazy.

Hi Murat

Keli has often called Muchova 'Chrissie's Daughter" aka Chris Evert

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

TB for the match and for a place in the womens final 6 all ( it is a 10 point TB)

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

A very tight TB
9 all, Muchova had a mini break early, Coco returning well got it back

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

In a pressure match, Muchova d Gauff 62 16 76(10) and is the first player through to the final
Both ladies take as bow the 3rd set TB was fought down to the wire
As a Muchova fan I am thrilled she made the final, shout out to Keli
Bad luck AP Coco can hold her head high she has really improved on the grass and can build on this next year

 

[PhiEaglesfan712]

Missed opportunity for Coco at match point serving up 9-8, and it costs her. Muchova wins the tiebreak 12-10, and moves on to the final.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Coco played a volley in the crucial point of that TB and it cost her and also the miss from Coco up MP
A fun match that was hard fought in the 10 point TB
Well done both ladies

BTW I picked Muchova to win in 3 sets see if I can get my other pick through in the next SF

CoCo Choked and did not deserve to win. PERIOD.. Nothing more can be said

My dear AP

Come on now that is unfair, Coco did play a volley that was crucial moment in the final TB she went for it,, these things happen also the miss from Coco on MP cost her it was a Pressure TB
I really thought after she won the 2nd set she had all the momentum she would win the match quite frankly, considering this year has been Coco's good showing on grass making the SF, she has a lot to be proud of, can build for next season on grass

Pretty sure that was a choke. You cannot keep spotting your opponent a set while you “figure it out”. It isn’t just the mp she muffed. She had a DF in TB too. On that ill-fated volley, she was so afraid to take it as a FH, she changed her mind at the last second in an attempt at a drop volley. FAIL

Hi Keli it was a Pressure TB, that failed drop volley by Coco wasnt a great idea and the miss on MP as well, I really thought after Coco won the 2nd set she had all the momentum and would go on and win

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Actually that 'Dive Volley' from Muchova was one of the points of the match
I grimaced and thought to myself Gosh I hope she wont be injured as she got up from the grass
Muchova has had soo many injuries time off the tour and surgeries to last a life time

 

[Federberg]

That was the dumbest match point from Coco. What the hell was she thinking? Open court and she tries to finesse a drop shot!?? Disgusting!
