The victory continues Muchova\u2019s impressive track record in New York, where she has reached the semifinals in the past two years.<\/p>\n<p>The match began with a roller coaster of momentum. Muchova broke early and looked poised to close out the first set, holding a 3-0 and a 5-3 lead. However, Noskova dug in, breaking back and eventually stealing the set in a tie-break. It was a frustrating blow for Muchova, who had also failed to convert a set point during the opener.<\/p>\n<p>Muchova\u2019s experience took over<\/p>\n<p>But the veteran\u2019s resolve shone through in the second set. Rather than letting the disappointment linger, Muchova refocused, breaking Noskova late in the set to go up 5-4 before serving it out to level the match. This crucial break shifted the entire dynamic of the contest.<\/p>\n<p>With momentum firmly on her side, Muchova\u2019s experience took over in the final set. She secured two decisive breaks, and her high-level play proved too much for the younger Noskova.<\/p>\n<p>The win extends Muchova\u2019s run of deep Grand Slam performances and demonstrates her mental toughness. The victory follows a difficult second-round match against Sorana Cirstea (7-6, 6-7 (3), 6-4) and a three-set opener against the legendary Venus Williams (6-3, 2-6, 6-1).<\/p>\n<p>Muchova will face Marta Kostyuk, the No 27 seed, next. Kostyuk defeated Diane Parry in the afternoon.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>  <a href=\"https:\/\/www.patrickmouratoglou.com\/en\/champion-mindset-pre-order\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"mx-auto\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"><br \/>\n    <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/1756378570_192_Banner-Social-Media-Facebook-scaled.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"aspect-3-1 mx-auto max-w-full overflow-hidden object-cover md:max-w-xl\"\/><br \/>\n  <\/a><\/p>\n<p>New York (Grand Slam), other third-round results (USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center, hard, USD 90.000.000, most recent results first):<\/p>\n<p>Beatriz Haddad Maia vs. Maria Sakkari<\/p>\n<p>Anna Kalinskaya vs. Iga Swiatek<\/p>\n<p>Amanda Anisimova vs. Jaqueline Cristian<\/p>\n<p>Ekaterina Alexandrova vs. Laura Siegemund<\/p>\n<p>Daria Kasatkina vs. Naomi Osaka: saturday<\/p>\n<p>Diane Parry vs. Marta Kostyuk: saturday<\/p>\n<p>Coco Gauff (3) beat Magdalena Frech (28): 6-3, 6-1<\/p>\n<p>Taylor Townsend beat Mirra Andreeva (5): 7-5, 6-2<\/p>\n<p>Aryna Sabalenka (1) beat Leylah Fernandez (31): 6-3, 7-6 (2)<\/p>\n<p>Barbora Krejcikova beat Emma Navarro (10): 4-6, 6-4, 6-4<\/p>\n<p>Ann Li beat Priscilla Hon (Q): 7-5, 6-3<\/p>\n<p>Cristina Bucsa beat Elise Mertens (19): 3-6, 7-5, 6-3<\/p>\n<p>Jessica Pegula (4) beat Victoria Azarenka: 6-1, 7-5<\/p>\n<p>Marketa Vondrousova beat Jasmine Paolini (7): 7-6 (4), 6-1<\/p>\n<p>Elena Rybakina (9) beat Emma Raducanu: 6-1, 6-2<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"In a hard-fought, all-Czech battle, No. 11 seed Karolina Muchova battled back from a set down to defeat&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":108770,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[442],"tags":[49,48,82,593],"class_list":{"0":"post-108769","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-tennis","8":"tag-ca","9":"tag-canada","10":"tag-sports","11":"tag-tennis"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/108769","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=108769"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/108769\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/108770"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=108769"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=108769"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=108769"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
