Iga Swiatek is the new Wimbledon women’s singles champion, a title she clinched in stunning fashion over Amanda Anisimova.

Anisimova was excited for her Wimbledon final with Swiatek, but that emotion quickly turned to heartbreak as she lost 6-0, 6-0.

Swiatek needed just 57 minutes to secure the remarkable win at Wimbledon, which represents a sixth Grand Slam title for the Pole.

The 24-year-old has now won all six of her Grand Slam finals, and has become a major champion on grass, clay and hard courts.

Swiatek emulated Steffi Graf with the 6-0, 6-0 win over Anisimova, which also represents a 100th career Grand Slam match win.

She boasts a stunning 100-20 win-loss record in Grand Slam main draws since making her debut back in 2019.

And Swiatek has since reacted to her latest feat on social media, writing on Instagram: “WHAT? I just can’t wrap my mind around it yet. So, so happy.”

Swiatek undoubtedly held more big-match experience over Anisimova for their clash, with the latter playing in her very first Grand Slam final.

And that showed as the match progressed, with the Pole producing a ruthless display as the American really failed to get any momentum whatsoever.

Anisimova can, however, be hugely proud of her efforts at Wimbledon this year, which included knocking out WTA number one Aryna Sabalenka.

But much of the limelight will rightfully focus on Swiatek, who was the eighth seed at the All England Club.

And that was a seeding that seemingly worked wonders for the Pole, who entered the tournament with less pressure on her shoulders compared to the likes of Sabalenka and Coco Gauff.

Moreover, she had rarely conquered grass, and had not won a Grand Slam title since the 2024 French Open.
