Tennis star, Serena Williams says she “did not choke” after missing four match points before succumbing to Czech seventh seed Karolina Pliskova in a dramatic Australian Open quarter-final.
The 37-year-old American, going for a record-equalling 24th Grand Slam singles title, led 5-1 in the decider but lost 6-4 4-6 7-5.
Pliskova, 26, won the last six games before taking her third match point.
Former world number one Pliskova will meet Japan’s Naomi Osaka in Thursday’s semi-finals.
