Noskova's Glimpse of Wimbledon Trophy Inspired Title Glory

Noskova recovered after losing five match points and became the youngest women’s champion since 2011, officials said.

  • On Saturday, 21-year-old Linda Noskova won the Wimbledon title, defeating fellow Czech Karolina Muchova 6-2, 5-7, 6-3 at Centre Court in a tense final.
  • After losing five consecutive games in the second set, Noskova spotted the Venus Rosewater Dish en route to a comfort break and regained her mental equilibrium.
  • The victory establishes the 21-year-old as the third Czech to win the women's title in four years and the youngest women's champion since Petra Kvitova won her first title in 2011.
  • Raised in a village in a Czech forest, Noskova has impressed observers with her level-headed approach throughout her career, remaining resilient following her mother Ivana's death two years ago.
  • Possessing an "old head on young shoulders," Noskova plans to pursue environmental volunteering after tennis, having spent part of last year in Zanzibar working at a school.
