Iga Swiatek’s Wimbledon win in pics: Ruthless, historic, unforgettable

It was heartbreak for Amanda Anisimova, who became the first American since 2016 to reach a Wimbledon final. After a dream run, she struggled to find her rhythm in the title match and broke down in tears after the loss, saying, “I didn’t have enough today… but I’ll keep putting in the work.” (Reuters)

Reacting to the win, Swiatek said, “It’s something that is just surreal. I feel like tennis keeps surprising me, and I keep surprising myself.” She thanked her team and coach Wim Fissette for their support through ups and downs. (Image: AFP)

The Wimbledon title ends a 13-month title drought for the Polish star, who had served a brief suspension last year due to an inadvertent doping violation linked to contaminated melatonin. (X/Wimbledon)

The win made Swiatek the first player since Monica Seles in 1992 to win her first six Grand Slam finals — a flawless start to a potentially all-time-great career. ( Reuters)

Already a four-time French Open and one-time US Open champion, Swiatek became the youngest woman since Serena Williams in 2002 to win Grand Slam titles on clay, hard, and grass courts. ( Reuters)

Iga Swiatek destroyed American 13th seed Amanda Anisimova 6-0, 6-0 in the Wimbledon final, becoming the first woman to win a major final by that scoreline since Steffi Graf in 1988 and the first to do so at Wimbledon since 1911. (Image: AFP)
