She reminisced about working with her idol, Jana Novotna, a few years ago, drawing inspiration from her Wimbledon journeys. Novotna, who reached the finals in 1998, continues to be Krejcikova’s inspiration, and she believes Novotna is proudly looking down on her. In the upcoming final, Krejcikova will face Jasmine Paolini, whom she previously encountered in qualifying in Australia in 2018. Both players are anticipated to put up a strong fight.
