Iga Swiatek is now a Wimbledon champion, securing her sixth Grand Slam singles title and her first at the All England Club. She defeated American Amanda Anisimova 6-0, 6-0 in the final, completing her Grand Slam collection across all surfaces.

The match lasted just 57 minutes, and Swiatek’s 6-0, 6-0 victory marked only the second time in the Open Era that a Grand Slam singles final ended with such a scoreline. This win also ended her 13-month wait for a title since winning her fourth French Open trophy last year. Swiatek’s record in major finals remains perfect, now 6-0.

This victory not only made her the first Polish Wimbledon singles champion in the Open Era but also marked her 100th career Grand Slam match win. With a 100-20 record in Grand Slam main draws since her debut in 2019, Swiatek’s career continues to soar.

Perhaps the most striking aspect of Swiatek’s triumph was the dominance of her performance. In total, she lost just two games across her semifinal and final matches, a truly remarkable achievement.

Tennis fans in disbelief after witnessing the Wimbledon final

As soon as Iga Swiatek struck the backhand winner to fall to the ground, the tennis fans went berserk online. Some actually wanted refund for the Wimbledon final. Here are some of the reactions:

Swiatek dominated the match from the start, claiming the first 6-0 opening set in a women’s singles final at Wimbledon since 1983. In that year, Martina Navratilova defeated Andrea Jaeger 6-0, 6-3. Before that, several Wimbledon finals from 1973 to 1975 featured 6-0 first sets, including Billie Jean King’s 6-0, 7-5 victory over an 18-year-old Chris Evert in 1973.

Anisimova showed some signs of resistance in the early stages of the second set. She hit a 90-mph forehand winner to bring the score to 30-30 while Swiatek was serving at 6-0, 1-0. However, she was unable to turn that momentum into a meaningful challenge on the scoreboard.

Despite the lopsided scoreline, Anisimova’s performance at Wimbledon was a significant milestone in her career. She defeated Aryna Sabalenka in the semifinals to achieve her first-ever win over a World No. 1. This result propelled Anisimova into the Top 10 of the WTA rankings, marking a career-high achievement as she broke into the elite group for the first time on Monday.

Iga Swiatek emulates Steffi Graf after winning Wimbledon

Polish star Iga Swiatek made history by winning her first Wimbledon title and sixth Grand Slam overall, defeating Amanda Anisimova 6-0, 6-0 in a dominant performance. This victory ended a 13-month wait for a tour-level title. Swiatek, ranked No. 4 in the world and seeded eighth, was in complete control, showing no signs of pressure in her first Wimbledon final.

The Polish star’s journey to the final was impressive, having not lost a set since dropping the opening round against Caty McNally in the second round. After a strong semi-final victory over Belinda Bencic, Swiatek continued her flawless form, outclassing Anisimova in just 57 minutes to claim the title.

Her 6-0, 6-0 victory in the final marked a historic achievement, making Swiatek just the second woman in the Open Era to win a Grand Slam final with such a scoreline. Steffi Graf was the first, having defeated Natasha Zvereva 6-0, 6-0 in the 1988 French Open. It was also the first double bagel in a Wimbledon final since 1911.

With this triumph, Swiatek became the first Polish player to win Wimbledon and the eighth woman to complete the ‘Surface Slam’. She joined Monica Seles as only the second woman to win her first six Grand Slam finals. Swiatek’s remarkable achievement also included dropping only 35 games throughout the tournament, the fewest by any woman at Wimbledon in this century.
