VIDEO. I forgot the rules. AO 2022 finalist celebrates victory ahead of schedule
On Wednesday, December 18, the match of the 1/32 finals of the Australian Open 2023 took place between the American tennis player. Daniel Collins (USA, WTA 11) and Karolina Muchova (Czech Republic, WTA 133).
Collins, who was a finalist at AO 2022, started to feel the joy of victory after taking the seventh point in the third set tiebreak. However, the tennis player apparently forgot that in Grand Slam tournaments the decisive tie-break is played up to ten points won.
Soon, the American closed Mukhova with a score of 6:7 (1:7), 6:2, 7:6 (10:6).
It is worth noting that in the first round of the Australian Open, Mukhova defeated the Ukrainian tennis player Lesya Tsurenko.
In the 1/16 final, Collins will play 2022 Wimbledon champion Elena Rybakina.
