This loss is a setback for Gauff, who had made it to the quarterfinals for the first time at Wimbledon this year. She had beaten fellow American Jessica Pegula after dropping the first set and had also defeated last year's Wimbledon semifinalist Belinda Bencic in the fourth round.

Gauff has owned the all-time matchup between the two, winning six of seven previous meetings. However, Muchova did notch her first win over Gauff in their most recent matchup, a three-set win on the clay court at Stuttgart in June.

Coco Gauff's Wimbledon schedule has been impressive, with wins over Tamara Korpatsch, Solana Sierra, Claire Liu, Belinda Bencic, and Jessica Pegula. However, her loss to Muchova marks the end of her bid for the title.
