The Grammy winner and avid tennis player toasted the newly-crowned champ and her team, while humorously dubbing the Czech her new coach.
Wimbledon champion isn’t the only new title that Barbora Krejcikova is leaving the All England Club with this year. If pop singer P!nk has her way, the Czech will be her new coach.
The Grammy winner and avid tennis player toasted the newly-crowned champ and her team in the aftermath of Krejcikova’s 6-2, 2-6, 6-4 win over Jasmine Paolini on Saturday as part of a jam-packed weekend visit to the All England Club. Taking a brief respite from the European leg of her Summer Carnival world tour, the singer, whose legal name is Alecia Beth Moore, previously met Paolini on the eve of the women’s final, and also made the rounds with men’s finalist Novak Djokovic.

But Krejcikova and P!nk go way back, or, at least, further back than this year’s championship weekend, as she and Katerina Siniakova met the pop star after they won the doubles title in Indian Wells last year.
The Missundaztood singer had previously participated in a charity exhibition match ahead of that tournament before returning to the desert to watch the duo win the title.
“She’s a big star in Czech,” Krejcikova said then. “She would definitely be the most famous person that I would take a picture with.”
