Amanda Anisimova continues to showcase her consistency and mental strength on the WTA Tour, having now won her last 29 matches at WTA level after taking the opening set. This remarkable run highlights her ability to maintain momentum and close out matches once she gains the early advantage.
Last defeat came in Auckland against Alycia Parks
The last time Anisimova lost a match after winning the first set was at the ASB Classic in Auckland earlier this season. In that encounter, she took the first set 6-2 against Alycia Parks but eventually fell 2-6, 3-6 in the next two sets. Parks mounted a strong comeback, handing Anisimova her only such defeat of the year.
Tactical maturity and mental resilience
Anisimova’s streak reflects her growing tactical maturity and ability to manage matches under pressure. Her aggressive baseline play, combined with improved shot selection and court awareness, has made her one of the most formidable closers on tour. Once she secures the first set, she rarely lets her grip slip.
Building momentum for the season ahead
With this streak intact, Anisimova enters the latter half of the season with confidence and momentum. Her ability to convert early leads into victories will be crucial as she targets deeper runs in upcoming tournaments and aims to climb further up the rankings.
