Eighth-seeded Iga Świątek of Poland dominated 13th-seeded American Amanda Anisimova 6-0, 6-0, in Saturday’s final at All England Club in London to win the 2025 Wimbledon tournament.
The win marked the first Wimbledon title of Świątek’s career, and she is now a six-time Grand Slam champion overall, having previously won the French Open four times and the U.S. Open once.
Additionally, Saturday represented the 100th Grand Slam match win of Świątek’s career, making her the fastest to reach that threshold since Serena Williams in 2004, per Wimbledon’s official X account.
The 6-0, 6-0, line was the first “double bagel” in a women’s singles Grand Slam final since Steffi Graf beat Natasha Zvereva in the 1988 French Open. It was also the first instance of a double bagel Wimbledon final since 1911 when Dorothea Lambert Chambers defeated Dora Boothby.
Świątek played nearly mistake-free tennis in the win, committing just 11 unforced errors compared to Anisimova’s 28. Świątek also won 72 percent of her first-serve points and converted six of her nine break-point chances on Anisimova’s serves.
While it was a highly disappointing result for Anisimova, the Wimbledon crowd showered her with affection after the match, and she showed her appreciation for both them and Świątek:
Świątek responded in kind, congratulating Anisimova on her run and expressing hope for future meetings between them:
Prior to this year, Świątek had only made it past the fourth round at Wimbledon on one occasion, and she had never advanced past the quarterfinals.
However, the 24-year-old was on top of her game this time around, dropping only one set en route to the final.
Świątek benefited from avoiding other top players in the bracket, as her highest-ranked opponent before Anisimova in the final was 19th-ranked Liudmila Samsonova in the quarters.
Anisimova, 23, traversed a slightly tougher road en route to the first Grand Slam singles final of her career.
Although she faced just one seeded opponent in her first five matches of the tournament, she went up against No. 1 Aryna Sabalenka in the semifinals. Sabalenka is a three-time Grand Slam champ who has reached at least the semis at every Grand Slam in her career.
After losing to Sabalenka in each of their previous two encounters at Grand Slams, Anisimova rose to the occasion with a 6-4, 4-6, 6-4, upset to punch her ticket to the final.
Three of Anisimova’s four matches leading up to the final went three sets, so while she was perhaps the more battle-tested player in the tournament, Świątek may have been fresher.
Ultimately, Świątek got the better of Anisimova in their first-ever meeting as pros Saturday, adding another accolade to what was already a Hall-of-Fame-worthy career, and moving closer to the career Grand Slam.
