LONDON (AP) — Defending Wimbledon champion Barbora Krejcikova lost to No. 10 seed Emma Navarro 2-6, 6-3, 6-4 in the third round on Saturday, extending a recent run of one-and-done winners at the All England Club.
Krejcikova faded in the third set, getting her blood pressure checked at the changeover after Navarro broke her to lead 3-2 at No. 1 Court. Krejcikova ate a banana and drank liquids during the medical check, while Navarro walked to her guest box and spoke to her coach during the break in action.
When play resumed, Krejcikova still appeared to be in distress, often leaning over and placing her hands on her knees between points.

🎥 Inter Miami duo display Barça DNA in first-half strike vs the Galaxy
Inter Miami go into the half-time interval with a justified one-nil advantage, and they have some veteran stars to thank for the Javier Mascherano excluding both Lionel Messi and Rodrigo De Paul from the matchday XI against the visiting LA Galaxy, the Herons have still been the better side on the night, with former Barça stars Jordi Alba and Sergio Busquets rising to the top before the break. Not long after the Herons were denied a first goal after a sensational back-heel pass from Luis Suárez found Telasco Segovia in the box, Busquets and Alba tapped into their telepathic understanding to pounce in the 43rd minute. Busquets, long viewed as one of the top midfielders Spain has ever produced, dispatched an inch-perfect ball into space to find the marauding Alba down the right flank, with the diminutive full-back having only Novak Mićović to beat, which he did with a composed finish from inside the box. It was vintage Barça from the former La Roja stars, and a sign that they're still capable of producing moments of unquestionable quality. 📸 Editorial Photo Credit: © Sam Navarro | 2025 Aug 16 - Imagn Images
