Accessing the US Open semifinals for two consecutive years seems not to be enough to satisfy a Karolina Muchova leaving New York with mixed feelings. The Czech had the match against Jessica Pegula completely under control, but an unexpected mistake led her into a negative spiral that her opponent took full advantage of. Aware that her journey has a lot of merit, yes, but hurt for letting a great opportunity slip away.

“It was a very tough match, I think I started quite well, but then I got very nervous. The beginning was very easy, but I knew it wouldn't be like that all the time, so I tried to keep the pace. When I had the ball for 3-0, I missed an easy volley, from there she picked it up and started playing very solid until she turned it around. At that moment, it became very difficult to score a point against her, she was everywhere, didn't make many mistakes. Right now, it's hard for me to focus on the positive, but I must be happy to see that my game is still there. I'm healthy and can play more tournaments this season, that's the most important thing,” expressed the emotional Czech.
