The Czech Republic right-hander, who had never been beyond the second round of a Grand Slam, is the first woman through to the 2022 Wimbledon quarter-finals.
On clinching a well-deserved triumph over Garcia, the 23-year-old fell to her back in disbelief and shed several tears as she ran to meet her vanquished rival at the net.
Her victory stemmed from her outstanding court coverage and consistency, with Bouzkova far more poised on critical points in the first set and then steadier throughout the second.
