Barbora Krejcikova is truly on a roll! After winning her second major tennis trophy at Wimbledon 2024, she’s headed to the Asian swing of the WTA tour. Aiming to continue her winning streak, she gears up for the Wuhan Open 2024.

But have things been easy for her? No!

The downside of fame has been challenging. But Krejcikova deals with it all with remarkable grace. Additionally, she makes an effort to engage with her fans through social media and occasionally shares her distinct hobbies.

She has earned a reputation for being a Lego enthusiast, owning intricately designed pieces like the Milky Way galaxy and a Dobby figure from Harry Potter, among others. Battling on social media is another hobby, too. She takes it positively, of course with a great sense of humor.

Recently, a user on the X platform jokingly asked Barbora Krejcikova how she managed to win at Wimbledon, given her recent performances. To which Barbora confidently answered, “I won 7 matches in a row. That’s how.” Talk about a mic-drop moment!

The tweet quickly gained traction, racking over 900 likes and putting her back in the spotlight. And rightfully so! Krejcikova’s victory at Wimbledon was no small feat. Despite facing struggles with injuries and illness initially, she fought through tough matches. Defeating top players like Elena Rybakina in the quarterfinals and Donna Vekic in the semifinals before facing Jasmine Paolini in the final.

She set the tone early by breaking Paolini in the opening game and dominating the first set. Even though her opponent responded with grit and leveled the match halfway. Krejcikova regained control through her strong serves and exceptional net play. The player held her nerve to seal the victory with a 6-2, 2-6, 6-4 and claiming her second Grand Slam title.

With this triumph, the Czech star cemented her status among tennis elites. However, even champions have their ups and downs. And for Barbora, it’s been an uphill battle in the Asian swing.

Barbora Krejcikova stumbles at Wuhan Open 2024

Barbora Krejcikova faced a disappointing setback in China. Although she entered this phase with high expectations, the champ faced a tough start. Competing in events like the WTA 1000 tournaments in Beijing and Wuhan, Krejcikova aimed to build on her momentum from the Grand Slam.

The No. 10 ranked player was disappointed at her recent loss at the Wuhan Open against Hailey Baptiste. Although the seventh seed was expected to advance further in the tournament, Baptiste’s aggressive play and confidence outmatched her. The player lost to the player in the second round with a score of 6-3, 7-5, and exited the match early.

After her early exit in singles at the Wuhan Open, Barbora Krejcikova will look to regroup as she continues her campaign in the doubles event. But will this champion be able to make a comeback in this tournament? Only time will tell.
