Coco Gauff headlines women’s semi-finals day at Wimbledon as the two-time major champion - and the highest seed remaining in the draw - faces off against former French Open finalist Karolina Muchova.Gauff saw off compatriot Jessica Pegula in three sets, featuring another trademark fightback from the seventh seed, to continue her best run yet at the All England Club, as she reached the last four for the first time.All four semi-finalists are at that stage for the first time, with Muchova ending Naomi Osaka’s brilliant run in two clinical sets, while ninth seed Linda Noskova and 12th seed Marta Kostyuk, who play in the other semi-final, saw off Elena Rybakina’s conqueror Elise Mertens and 2024 runner-up Jasmine Paolini respectively.Meanwhile, Arthur Fery continued his extraordinary Wimbledon run. The British wildcard advanced to the semi-finals by beating Flavio Cobolli 6-4 7-6 (4) 6-0 in a stunning straight-sets victory to the disbelief of Centre Court. Fery, who started the tournament ranked No 114 in the world, is only the second wildcard to reach the men’s semi-finals at Wimbledon and is the first since the 2001 champion Goran Ivanisevic. Follow latest scores and updates from Wimbledon, belowThe difference to Coco Gauff's unexpected Wimbledon runCoco Gauff said previously that she took inspiration from Iga Swiatek’s run to the title last year: a player with a similar game style and a similarly torrid recent history on grass. And her mentality this year has been similar to Swiatek’s free-swinging attitude in 2025, with the Pole putting less pressure on herself after a string of results that fell below her perilously high standards.Gauff’s Roland-Garros title defence this year ended in the third round, and she said: “I had way too high expectations and way too much pressure on myself, because I did feel like I was playing good tennis, and it just didn't show at that tournament. I think I mentally blocked myself.“Maybe I should go into it like I'm approaching here, because those seem to be the tournaments I do better at.”Gauff's movement and athleticism have been key to her recent success on the surface (Reuters)Flo Clifford 9 July 2026 10:43The crucial trait behind Coco Gauff’s rise from grass-court sceptic to Wimbledon title contenderHaving not won a match on grass in two years before this tournament and never previously getting beyond the fourth round, Coco Gauff is in uncharted territory but finding new ways to rise to the occasion, writes Flo Clifford Jamie Braidwood9 July 2026 10:30How to watch Wimbledon on TVIn the UK, every match from Wimbledon will be available to watch live on BBC iPlayer and the BBC Sport website, with viewers able to access a stream from all 18 courts.
