MATTHEW STOCKMAN Getty Images A TEARFUL Taylor Townsend leaves the court after her 1-6, 7-6 (13), 6-3 loss to Barbora Krejcikova.
With fans chanting “Let's go, Taylor! Let’s go, Taylor!” for a player who became a fan favorite during the tournament after her confrontation with Jelena Ostapenko following her second-round victory, Townsend was repeatedly a point away from what would have been her first Grand Slam quarterfinal.
But Krejcikova, a two-time Grand Slam singles champion, erased seven match points in the tiebreaker, broke Townsend's serve twice in the third set and advanced to face No. 4 seed Jessica Pegula on Tuesday.
Townsend hugged Krejcikova at the net, then sat in her sideline chair and began crying before leaving the court to a standing ovation as she dabbed her eyes with a towel.
