Coco Gauff\u2019s Wimbledon dream is over for another year after losing a rollercoaster semi-final clash with Karolina Muchova on Centre Court.<\/p>\n
The Czech comfortably took the first set 6-2 before the American rallied in style to take the second 6-1 in scorching temperatures on Thursday.<\/p>\n
The quality of the contest reached its peak in the championship tiebreak, where both players created and then spurned match point opportunities.<\/p>\n
Gauff, in particular, will be kicking herself after dumping a tame drop shot into the net when 9-8 up, and then Muchova<\/a> was too casual with a volley soon after.<\/p>\n But the 10th seed held her nerve to take the tiebreak to secure a 6-2 1-6 7-6 (12-10) triumph to set up a final against Marta Kostyuk or Linda Noskova on Saturday. So, where does this leave Gauff<\/a> in terms of prize money and ranking points?<\/p>\n Serena Williams finalising plans for an extended comeback to tennis<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n Wimbledon exclusive: Sabine Lisicki opens up about her emotional 2013 final loss<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n Want more from Tennis365?
