The defense of the Wimbledon Barbora Krejova title ended with crying when he was running out of energy “from nowhere” in the defeat of three sets by American 10th seed Emma Navarro in the third round.
The Czech, who came to the tournament after a scary injury, seemed to control the match but became increasingly depressed after being taken to the third set in defeat 2-6 6-3 6-4.
“First of all, I think it is food, that I eat too early,” he said. “That’s why I start with all the bananas and all the sugar and items in it. But I am not really better, I actually feel worse and worse with the time in court.
“Very sad to me and very unfortunate.”
Krejoova bowed several times behind the baseline at the end of the point and had a coach in the middle of the third set to take blood pressure.
When he was in one match from defeat, the 29 -year -old man leaned on the screen behind the field and cried.
Wiped tears as he held the service to stay in the match, finally came in the following match when he netted Navarro who was 24 years old ordered the fourth round meeting with Mirra Andreeva Russia who is 18 years oldwhich is the seventh seed.
Former number two world Krejovikova, which is now determined to get out of the top 70 in the world ranking, only played six matches in the injury season and has withdrawn from its Eastbourne quarter-finals last month with a thigh injury.
