All‑Czech Showdown at Wimbledon: Muchová vs. Nosková for Maiden Major

The winner takes the Venus Rosewater Dish, receiving roughly $4.75 million in prize money.

Overview

  • The women's final is scheduled for Centre Court at about 11:00 a.m. ET on Saturday, July 11, 2026, and will be shown live in the U.S. on ESPN and streamed on ESPN+.
  • Karolína Muchová reached the final after a dramatic semifinal on Thursday in which she saved a match point and beat Coco Gauff 6-2, 1-6, 7-6 (12-10).
  • Linda Nosková advanced in straighter fashion, defeating Marta Kostyuk 6-4, 6-4 to reach her first Grand Slam final and arrive on Centre Court fresher than her opponent.
  • Neither player has won a major before, so Saturday's match will produce a first-time Grand Slam champion and marks the first all‑Czech women's Wimbledon final in the Open Era.
  • Both women come into the final with strong grass-court form and recent tournament titles, Muchová at Bad Homburg and Nosková at Berlin, a run that continues Czechia's recent success at Wimbledon.
