AEGON Ilkley champion Magdalena Rybarikova was blown away by opponent Garbine Muguruza as her dream of reaching the Wimbledon final turned into a nightmare.
The Slovakian, who was the surprise package of the tournament after winning at Ilkley less than three weeks ago, was beaten 6-1, 6-1 in this afternoon's semi-final which only lasted just over an hour.
Now 2015 runner-up Muguruza awaits the winner of the second semi-final between Britain's Johanna Konta and American five-time Wimbledon champion Venus Williams.
