Anisimova broke down in tears after she became the first woman to lose to a double bagel scoreline at SW19 since 1911.

A tearful Anisimova, the 13th seed, wiped away tears as she praised Swiatek and said she had ‘run out of gas a bit today’.

The 23-year-old was playing in her first Wimbledon final and said ‘she would never forget this experience’.

Anisimova broke down again as she mentioned how her mother had flew in from America this morning to watch her.

‘Thank you for being here and breaking the superstition of not flying in – it isn’t why I lost here,’ she joked.

Anisimova: ‘I know I didn’t have enough today but I will keep putting in the work and I hope to be back here one day.’

A victorious Swiatek, the first Polish woman to win Wimbledon, also offered words of encouragement to Anisimova.

‘First I want to congratulate Amanda for an amazing two weeks. You should be proud of the work you are doing and I hope we will play more finals her,” she said.

‘I didn’t even dream, for me it was way too far. I feel like I am already an experienced player after winning the Slams before but I never expected this one.

‘This year I really, really enjoyed it and feel I improved my form here.

‘I am always going to remember the opening of champagne bottles between serves! It is a sound that will keep me away at night!’

Iga previously crushed British No. 2 Emma Raducanu for the second Grand Slam in a row in May, with a 6-1, 6-2 defeat in the second round of Roland Garros.

In 2023, Tunisian tennis player Ons Jabeur was tearful after coming runner-up in two consecutive finals, following a loss at the US Open the same year.

Amanda suffered the first 6-0, 6-0 defeat in a Wimbledon final, the first time it had happened in the tournament since the First World War.

This was the first double bagel in a Wimbledon final since 1911, the first in a Grand Slam final since Natasha Zvereva was destroyed at the French Open by Steffi Graf.
