Iga Swiatek has won her first Wimbledon title in a powerful and one-sided match against Amanda Anisimova. She defeated the American 6-0, 6-0 in the final on Centre Court. With this win, the 24-year-old Polish player now has six Grand Slam titles. Known for being very strong on clay courts, Swiatek has now shown she can dominate on grass too — a surface she once found very difficult. From the first game, she played with great energy, breaking Anisimova’s serve early and never letting up.
Grass, mastered. 🏆

Total Control from Start to Finish
Swiatek played the first set in just 26 minutes, winning it 6-0 without facing a single break point. Her powerful shots and pressure from the baseline left Anisimova struggling to respond. The second set didn’t get any easier for Anisimova, who was playing in her first-ever Grand Slam final. Swiatek quickly reached match point and won on her first try. She was emotional as the crowd applauded her win. With this victory, she becomes the eighth straight woman to win her first Wimbledon title and the first Polish woman ever to lift the famous Venus Rosewater Dish.
Anisimova’s Comeback and Swiatek’s New Milestone
Even though Anisimova lost the final, her journey has been impressive. Just a year ago, she wasn’t even ranked in the top 400 and didn’t qualify for Wimbledon. After taking a break in 2023 for mental health reasons, her return to reach the final — including a big semi-final win over Aryna Sabalenka — was a big achievement. For Swiatek, this win is a huge moment in her career. Until now, she had never gone past the quarter-finals at Wimbledon. But with this title, she has shown that grass is no longer a weakness — she’s now a Wimbledon champion.
