While Iga Swiatek was clambering up the rows of seats towards her box to celebrate her maiden Wimbledon title, Amanda Anisimova sat slumped in her chair, a towel over her face, desperate for the pristine green of Centre Court to swallow her up after suffering the scarring ignominy of losing a Grand Slam final 6-0 6-0.
Iga Swiatek pelted the perennial ryegrass, browned by weeks of tennis tussles, manipulating movements of Amanda Anisimova for a straight-sets demolition of the American on Saturday to capture her first Wimbledon title.
Świątek's 6-0, 6-0 victory over Anisimova gave the tennis world its first double bagel in a women's Grand Slam final since Steffi Graf won the 1988 French Open with the same score, per The Athletic. That is an absolutely stunning achievement for Świątek, who will add to her undefeated Grand Slam streak.
