Amanda Anisimova’s run at Wimbledon 2025 ended in heartbreak, but not without a breakthrough. In her first Grand Slam final, she faced Iga Świątek and suffered a historic defeat, losing 6-0, 6-0 in just under an hour. Despite the scoreline, Anisimova’s journey to the final was a major career milestone, including a stunning semifinal win over World No. 1 Aryna Sabalenka.
Rising Through Adversity
The 23-year-old American has battled through personal tragedy and mental health struggles over the past few years. After stepping away from tennis in 2023, she returned with renewed focus and captured her first WTA 1000 title in Doha earlier this year. Her Wimbledon performance has now propelled her into the WTA Top 10 for the first time, reaching a career-high ranking of No. 7.
Looking Ahead to the US Swing
Following the final, Anisimova expressed excitement about the upcoming North American hard-court season. “Can’t wait to get started in the 🇺🇸 swing,” she shared, referencing her favorite tournament—the US Open. With her family planning to attend and the home crowd behind her, she’s hoping to make a deep run in Queens.
A New Chapter Begins
Anisimova’s Wimbledon experience, though painful in its conclusion, marked a turning point. She’s now a top seed heading into the US Open and has rediscovered her passion for the sport. With momentum on her side and a fresh perspective, the American star is poised to make waves on home soil.
