Iga Swiatek wins Historic Wimbledon Title

On July 12, 2025, Iga Swiatek made Wimbledon history, defeating Amanda Anisimova 6-0, 6-0 in the women’s singles final. The 24-year-old Pole claimed her first Wimbledon title and sixth Grand Slam in just 57 minutes. This rare double bagel, the first in a Wimbledon final since 1911, marked a defining moment for Swiatek.

Swiatek, seeded No. 8, showcased her evolution on grass, a surface once considered her weakest. Known for her clay-court dominance with four French Open titles and a US Open crown, she adapted brilliantly. Her semifinal rout of Belinda Bencic (6-2, 6-0) set the stage for her commanding final performance.

In the final, Swiatek overwhelmed Anisimova from the start. Her aggressive returns and precise forehand broke Anisimova’s serve repeatedly. Swiatek’s movement on grass was impeccable, allowing her to control rallies. She produced only 10 winners but capitalized on Anisimova’s 28 unforced errors.

Her serve was a weapon, losing just six service games all tournament. Swiatek won over 70% of first-serve points in every match, including the final. This victory marked her 100th Grand Slam match win, achieved in just 120 matches, a pace rivaled only by Serena Williams among active players.

Anisimova, ranked No. 12, reached her first Grand Slam final after upsetting world No. 1 Aryna Sabalenka (6-4, 4-6, 6-4) in the semifinals. The 23-year-old American, who returned from a 2023 mental health break, showed resilience. Despite the loss, her powerful backhand earned praise, and she’ll rise to No. 7 in the WTA rankings.

Swiatek became the first Polish player to win Wimbledon and the eighth woman to claim majors on all three surfaces. Her 6-0 record in Grand Slam finals aligns her with legends like Margaret Court. The £3,000,000 prize and 2,000 ranking points will elevate her to No. 3 in the world.

As Swiatek lifted the Venus Rosewater Dish, her emotional celebration reflected the weight of this triumph. Anisimova, gracious in defeat, called her fortnight “incredible” despite the shutout. Swiatek’s flawless performance will be remembered as one of Wimbledon’s most dominant displays.

Highlights:

  • Swiatek delivers first Wimbledon final double bagel (6-0, 6-0) since 1911, defeating Anisimova in 57 minutes.

  • First Polish player to win Wimbledon, securing her sixth Grand Slam title.

  • Masters grass with dominant serve and forehand, forcing 28 Anisimova errors.
