Tearful Noskova admitted that her Wimbledon win over her close friend Muchova was an emotional rollercoaster. The 21-year-old recovered from squandering five-match points in the second set to win in a Centre Court classic on Saturday (Jul 11).&nbsp;This win also makes her the youngest woman to win Wimbledon since her fellow Czech and childhood idol, Petra Kvitova, in 2011. &nbsp;Upon achieving her dream of becoming a major champion, she broke down in the post-match presser, as she did after surrendering the second set, which pushed the match to the final set.&nbsp;Also read| <a href="https://www.wionews.com/sports/wimbledon-2026-jannik-sinner-ends-novak-djokovic-s-dream-as-alexander-zverev-enters-first-final-1783714417057">Wimbledon 2026: Jannik Sinner ends Novak Djokovic's dream as Alexander Zverev enters first final</a> &nbsp;"All these matches have been so tough, physically and mentally. Today especially, it's never easy to get the last point," she said. &nbsp;The two, however, are close friends off the court, having played doubles together at the 2024 Paris Olympics. And Noskova said it was hard to watch Muchova break down in tears after falling short of her maiden Grand Slam title. &nbsp;"Karo, you really made me work for it. Like you said, we are friends. I'm so glad I could play my first Grand Slam final with you. You are such a fighter. I think we made history today," Noskova said. "All our Czech fans will be proud of us no matter the result." &nbsp;Muchova, on the other hand, was also unable to contain her emotions, wiping away tears during her interview. &nbsp;"It's really tough to find any words. I'll start with Linda -- my ex-friend! I'm kidding, obviously, kinda," she said. "You are so young, it is your first Grand Slam final, and the way you played was unbelievable. You are a very kind person. You deserve it." &nbsp;As the tears flowed again, she added: "I'm pretty disappointed now. When I look to my corner... sorry, it's pretty emotional. &nbsp;"I'll be fighting more. I want that trophy. I hope I can come to the final again."&nbsp;(With inputs from AFP)
