Virginia Tennis: Danielle Collins and Emma Navarro Advance to Wimbledon 4th Round
Two former Virginia tennis stars are among the 16 players remaining in the ladies’ singles draw at The Championships Wimbledon 2024. Danielle Collins and Emma Navarro both advanced to the fourth round at Wimbledon for the first time in their respective careers.
Collins, who won two NCAA singles titles at Virginia in 2014 and 2016, will face No. 31 seed Barbora Krejcikova of the Czech Republic in the fourth round on Monday (time TBD), while Navarro, the 2021 NCAA Singles Champion, will face the No. 2-seeded American Coco Gauff on Sunday at 12pm ET (ABC).
Collins, the No. 11 seed in the tournament, defeated Clara Tauson 6-3, 7-6 in the first round and Dalma Galfi 6-3, 6-4 in the second round. In the third round on Saturday, Collins fell behind the No. 20 seed Beatriz Haddad Maia 0-4 in the first set, but then the match went into a weather delay. When play resumed, Collins went on a tear, winning the next nine games to claim the first set and seize control of the match. Haddad Maia won three of the next four games to put some pressure back on Collins, but she then polished off the match for the 6-4, 6-4 win. The victory sends Collins to the round of 16 at Wimbledon for the first time in her career (sixth Wimbledon appearance) and marks her fifth trip to the fourth round or further at a Grand Slam in her career.
Navarro, meanwhile, beat Qiang Wang 6-0, 6-2 in the first round and then breezed past Naomi Osaka 6-4, 6-1 in a second round match that lasted just 58 minutes. Diana Shnaider took the first set off of Navarro in the third round on Friday, but Navarro rallied to post a 2-6, 6-3, 6-4 victory to send her to the fourth round in just her second-career appearance at Wimbledon. It’s already been a remarkable year for the 23-year-old Navarro, who is the No. 19 seed at Wimbledon but the No. 17-ranked women’s singles player in the world after winning her first WTA title at the Hobart International in January and also posting a quarterfinal appearance at the French Open. Now, Navarro will look to take down world No. 2 Coco Gauff, who got the better of Navarro when they met earlier this year in the semifinals of the 2024 Auckland Open.
Last month, both Emma Navarro and Danielle Collins were named to the 2024 United States Olympic Tennis Team competing at the 2024 Paris Olympics starting on July 27th at Roland Garros.
Roanoke (Va.) North Cross School receiver Demarcus Brown tells Rivals he has flipped his commitment from Virginia to Virginia Tech.

Brown is one of the most prolific players in the state, turning 53 receptions into 1,112 yards and 14 touchdowns as a junior with over 60 tackles six interceptions and two forced fumbles when playing defense.
Future position coach Fontel Mines was the lead recruiter for Brown who had been a verbal to Virginia since December. Once Franklin and the new staff landed at Virginia Tech they quickly prioritized Brown.
Now they have him in the fold.
Rivals ranks Brown as the nation’s No. 49 receiver and No. 10 prospect overall in the state of Virginia.
This Hokies class has some dynamic playmaking ability with Brown joining fellow receiver Anthony Roberts, along with running backs Kelvin Morrison and Stanley Smart as part of the fold.
Virginia Tech is in the mix for a Top25 class this cycle. Browns adds to a haul that Rivals previously ranked No. 31.

RICHMOND, Va. — Winston Hodges, a Cartersville, Virginia native who launched his comedy career at the Richmond Funny Bone in Short Pump, is now one of six remaining comedians on the Netflix series “Funny AF with Kevin Hart,” competing for a Netflix comedy special and a cash prize.
The Virginia Tech graduate and 35-year-old comedian has opened for several major acts and become a regular at New York’s Comedy Cellar.
Hodges said his Richmond roots are where it all began.
“I saw that the Richmond Funny Bone had a competition, and I entered into the competition 11 years ago called Clash of the Comics, and I ended up winning the competition,” Hodges said. “After that point, it was just like, I guess I just do stand up. So I was doing stand up around Richmond the first five years of my career before I moved to Washington DC.”
He said winning the show could be a turning point.
“To win the show would absolutely change the trajectory of my career,” Hodges said. “The winner gets a Netflix special. I’d be able just to kind of jump the line and get an opportunity… it could catapult my career to heights that I never, ever even thought possible.”
The competition culminates with live finale episodes on May 4 and 5 at 9 p.m. Eastern time. Netflix subscribers can vote in real time using their TV remote or the Netflix mobile app, but only while watching live.
