- Emma Navarro defeated defending Wimbledon champion Barbora Krejcikova 2-6, 6-3, 6-4 in the third round at the All England Club on July 5, 2025.
- Navarro, seeded tenth and known for previous big wins including eliminating Coco Gauff last year, overcame Krejcikova who was experiencing physical distress during the match.
- Navarro played a strong, defensively sound match with only 11 unforced errors, while Krejcikova had 53 unforced errors and 34 winners but faded in the final set.
- Navarro, age 24, said she was able to serve better and improved her groundstrokes, and she won five of six break points to turn the match around after trailing.
