Anna Karolína Schmiedlová[1] (born 13 September 1994 in Košice) is a Slovak tennis player.

Schmiedlová has won two singles titles on the WTA tour, as well as eleven singles titles on the ITF circuit in her career. On 12 October 2015, she reached her best singles ranking of world number 26. On 15 June 2015, she peaked at world number 213 in the doubles rankings.

Anna Karolína has a younger sister, Kristína Schmiedlová, who also plays tennis.[2]

Career

Anna Karolina Schmiedlova, 2015

2013

Schmiedlová qualified for her first Grand Slam tournament at the 2013 French Open. In the first round she defeated Yanina Wickmayer, but in the second round she was defeated by American Jamie Hampton.[3] She entered qualifying for 2013 Wimbledon Championships; after beating Anna Smith and Timea Bacsinszky, she lost to Eva Birnerová in straight sets,[4] but entered the main draw as a lucky loser anyway.[5] In the first round, she was defeated by Samantha Stosur in straight sets.[6]

After Wimbledon, Schmiedlová reached the final of the $100,000 ITF tournament in Biarritz,[7] only to lose to Stephanie Vogt in three sets.[8] However, as a result of her performance in France, she reached the top 100 for the first time with a ranking of world number 97.[9] At her next tournament in Bad Gastein, Austria, she lost in the first round to Chanelle Scheepers.[10]

Schmiedlová skipped some tournaments at the beginning of the hard-court season due to a minor injury.[11] At the New Haven Open, she qualified for the main draw, but lost in the first round to the sixth seed Sloane Stephens.[12] At the US Open, she won her first-round match against Stefanie Vögele, but lost in the second round to Kaia Kanepi.

2014

In May, Schmiedlová won the Empire Slovak Open in Trnava, Slovakia. She defeated the defending champion Barbora Záhlavová-Strýcová in the final. The following week, she reached the final of the Sparta Prague Open, but lost to Britain's Heather Watson in straight sets.[13]

At the French Open, Schmiedlová defeated Zheng Jie in the first round[14] and surprised the former world number one Venus Williams with a victory in three sets in round two.[14][15] In the third round, she lost to eventual quarterfinalist Garbiñe Muguruza in straight sets.[16]

At Wimbledon, Schmiedlová lost in the first round to 25th seed Alizé Cornet of France after winning the first set, and at the final Grand Slam of the year, the US Open, she lost again in round one to Aliaksandra Sasnovich of Belarus.

2015: Breakthrough

At the 2015 Australian Open, Schmiedlová won her first round match against Chanelle Scheepers, but lost in round two to Zarina Diyas in three sets.

In February, she reached her first WTA Tour final at the Rio Open, but eventually lost to Sara Errani in straight sets.

In April, she won her first WTA title at the Katowice Open, where she defeated Camila Giorgi in the final. She won her second WTA title at the Bucharest Open, where she got her revenge against Sara Errani whom she lost to earlier in the year in Rio.

Schmiedlová was voted "WTA Rising Star Of The Month" in July.[17]

At the Wuhan Open in September, Schmiedlová scored her first top-ten victory, and hence the biggest win of her career, by coming from a set and a break down to upset former world number one Caroline Wozniacki in three sets in the second round.[18]

2016: Major slump, out of the top 100

Schmiedlová started her season at the Brisbane International and lost to Varvara Lepchenko in the first round in straight sets. She then went to Sydney, upsetting 6th seed Timea Bacsinszky in the first round. However, she was dominated by eventual finalist Monica Puig in the second round, winning just one game in the match. At the Australian Open, Schmiedlová was seeded 27th but lost to Russian youngster Daria Kasatkina in the first round.

Representing Slovakia in a 2016 Fed Cup World Group II rubber against Australia, Schmiedlová defeated Arina Rodionova in three sets, but lost to Samantha Stosur the next day.

Schmiedlová is currently on a losing streak of 16 WTA tour-level matches. She lost at Dubai, Qatar, Indian Wells, Miami, Katowice, Istanbul, Rabat, Madrid, and Rome all in straight sets. At the 2016 French Open, she broke the straight sets losing streak after taking the first set against Garbiñe Muguruza, but succumbed to the eventual champion in three sets. Schmiedlová then took a wild card and number one seed at the 2016 Bol Open, but once again lost in straight sets to world number 124 Kristína Kučová. After two weeks off, she started the grass season at the 2016 Aegon International Eastbourne, where she once again lost in the first round, this time against Daria Gavrilova in straight sets.
