Emma Navarro ousts defending Wimbledon champ Krejcikova

News summary

At the 2025 Wimbledon Championships, defending women's singles champion Barbora Krejcikova was defeated in the third round by No. 10 seed American Emma Navarro in a three-set match. Krejcikova, who has been managing back injuries, showed signs of distress during the third set, requiring a blood pressure check and often leaning on her knees between points, yet still battled back to briefly level the score before Navarro secured the final games to win 6-2, 3-6, 6-4. Navarro, noted for her scrappy play and low unforced errors, will next face No. 7 seed Mirra Andreeva for a spot in the quarterfinals. With Krejcikova's exit, Iga Swiatek remains the only former major champion in the bottom half of the women's draw. The tournament continues a recent trend of nine different women winning the Wimbledon title in the past nine years, with Serena Williams the last repeat champion in 2016. Navarro's victory marks her fifth Round of 16 appearance in six majors, underscoring her rising prominence in women's tennis.
