"Beyonce, when she walks she just has that confidence" - Karolina Muchova sheds light on her Renaissance Tour experience alongside Taylor Townsend

Karolina Muchova has stated her admiration for American singer and songwriter Beyonce Knowles.

Following the release of her seventh studio album Renaissance, Beyonce began a Renaissance World Tour on May 10. The nine-part concert tour began in Stockholm (Sweden) and has since passed through Brussels (Belgium), Edinburgh (Scotland), Paris (France), and London (England) before concluding in Charlotte (USA) on August 9.

The Renaissance was one of the most watched events across the globe as it was Beyonce's first solo tour since her Formation World Tour in 2016.

At a press conference on the sidelines of the 2023 US Open, Muchova was asked about her experience of attending Beyonce's concert with American tennis star Taylor Townsend. The Czech player said that she had fun at the event and stated her admiration for the 41-year-old's voice.

"I think all the concert was, Beyonce, when she walks she just has that confidence. It was a nice show and we danced a little bit and enjoyed it a lot. I don't really have a favorite song. We basically went for any that she was singing. She has unbelievable voice, so it was really nice time there," she said.

Muchova also revealed that she met Townsend at the concert and stated that the two get along very well.

"Yeah, we met there. Taylor is the one I always chitchat a little bit in the locker. She's very nice girl also. Yeah, we talk just fine. Again, she has a great game. She's funny. So we talk here and there, and yeah, that's probably what I would say," she said.
