But I do feel like I can compete with a lot of the best players in the world.” “I feel like I’ve shown in some of the matches recently some of the stuff that I’m capable of.” she said earlier in the week. Having been ranked highly enough to compete in Wimbledon on merit that year, she was forced to withdraw and she ended the year outside of the top 300. She reined in her game and tried to be more selective with her attack. The best players in the world prod at her weaknesses, exposing her movement and forcing her to reach for the ball where she is most uncomfortable. Her total record against top 50 opposition was 4-14, not where a player with such high aspirations would like to be, and in those big moments she was yet to truly fly.

Boulter reached the third round of Wimbledon for the first time in her career by beating the former Wimbledon finalist.

Boulter needed her opponent’s serve to drop a level to get back into the match and that happened early in the second as double faults gave the British player breaks for 3-1 and 4-2. Sabalenka’s run was ended by Pliskova, who reached her second slam final, but this has not been a good season for the Czech, who missed the Australian Open with a broken arm and has not managed to find any momentum. This was the second year in a row playing on Centre for Boulter after her narrow loss to semi-finalist Aryna Sabalenka at the same stage last year.

But the tables were rapidly turned as the Briton was broken twice in a row.

With a succession of thunderous forehands, she forced two break points at 4-4 and after a Pliskova ace, the Brit blasted a forehand return and was serving for the match. Boulter saved her best tennis for the deciding set, going toe-to-toe with the Czech as the quality of the encounter improved. Boulter broke the Czech in the opening game but then her serve went on the blink as Pliskova reeled off five games in a row en route to a comfortable first-set win.

I hope I can go out there and do the same thing. I just needed to stay with her and stay on serve, especially in the second set. I’ve spent a lot of time on the courts there with my grandparents and my family. I’ve got a lot of support from the Foxes. They were something else that year.

The 25-year-old player from Leicester said she was "shaking" after the biggest triumph of her career before dedicating it to her grandmother.

"I'm rooting for Iga Swiatek and (Rafael) Nadal, but I think we need to support all the British players. "I'm going to get emotional. "You could see that every point that she won, it motivated her even more, you could see what it meant to her and the crowd got more and more behind her as well."
