Iga Swiatek has landed a historic Wimbledon title with a dominant 6-0 6-0 victory over Amanda Anisimova in Saturday’s women’s singles final.
The 24-year-old has now become the youngest woman since Serena Williams in 2002 to win Grand Slam singles trophies on all three surfaces.
Swiatek, seeded eighth, has firmly smashed her grass ceiling in SW19, becoming the first Polish player to win the Wimbledon title in the Open Era.
Before the 2025 Championships, Swiatek had never clinched a WTA-level trophy on grass – and hadn’t gone beyond the Wimbledon quarter-finals.
But she has made incredible progress on the surface and is now just the third woman in the Open Era to win all of her first six Grand Slam singles finals, joining Margaret Court and Monica Seles.
Swiatek’s triumph over 13th-seed Anisimova has also seen her become the fastest woman to register 100 Grand Slam wins since American legend Williams – and she got off to the perfect start in Saturday’s final…
How Swiatek smashed Anisimova in final
Anisimova endured a nightmare start as Swiatek took the first three points on her serve, securing an early break against the American 13th-seed.
Swiatek then took control with a hold – with her serve looking bigger than ever – before making it a double break to race into an early 3-0 lead.
‘It’s tough to watch,’ former British star Naomi Broady said on commentary duties for the BBC. ‘You can hear the silence in the crowd. They’re desperate for her (Anisimova) to get going.’
But Anisimova didn’t get going – as Swiatek held again – and secured yet another break by sending a backhand into the corner with her opponent barely making an effort to even get to it.
Things then got even more brutal for Anisimova as Swiatek completed the bagel – taking the first set 6-0 with little over 25 minutes played.
It left Anisimova with a mountain to climb and it didn’t get any better at the start of the second set as Swiatek secured her fourth break of the match.
Anisimova was heard screaming in frustration after her forehand went long – and she then found herself 2-0 down after another Swiatek hold.
The American fended off two break points in the following game – but Swiatek converted her third opportunity to remarkably lead 6-0 3-0.
Another break – and two more holds – then saw Swiatek register an incredible and historic 6-0 6-0 victory in arguably the most one-sided Wimbledon final of all time.
