Amanda Anisimova upset No. 1 Aryna Sabalenka, 6-4, 4-6, 6-4, becoming the first American to reach the Wimbledon final since Serena Williams.
What a way to make a statement for the young Tennis player. This is a huge upset and Anisimova’s first-ever Grand Slam final. Anisimova will face either Iga Swiatek in the Wimbledon final.
Swiatek defeated Belinda Bencic 6-2 6-0. Swiatek becomes the first Polish player to reach the Wimbledon singles final since Agnieszka Radwanska in 2012.
Anisimova’s victory is undoubtedly one of the most impressive moments in tennis this season. She’s only 23 and we’re seeing the beginning of a potential star in the making. It’s an incredible journey for Anisimova.
The last four Grand Slam finals have featured an American woman. Jessica Pegula in the 2024 US Open, Madison Keys at the 2025 Australian Open, Coco Gauff at Roland Garros, and now Anisimova.
