The match, completed in 57 minutes, marked the first shutout in a Wimbledon women’s final since 1911 and only the second “double bagel” in a women’s Grand Slam final during the Open Era. Świątek, currently ranked No. 4 in the world (by the WTA), broke Anisimova’s serve in all six return games and won 26 of 37 points on her own serve. She did not face a break point at any stage during the match and maintained steady control from the first game to the last.
Świątek’s Precision and Consistency Define the Match
The 24-year-old Świątek entered the final as the top seed and played with characteristic poise and discipline. She recorded 11 unforced errors, served three aces, and successfully converted six of nine break point opportunities. Her first-serve percentage stood at 78%, and she won a total of 55 points in the match.
Anisimova, who was appearing in her first Grand Slam final, was unable to generate sustained rallies or gain traction in the match. She committed 28 unforced errors, did not hit an ace, and produced five double faults. She was unable to break Świątek’s serve or create any break point opportunities, and won 24 points overall.
A First for Poland, a Sixth for Świątek
With this victory, Świątek becomes the first Polish woman to win the Wimbledon singles title, following in the footsteps of previous finalists Jadwiga Jędrzejowska (1937) and Agnieszka Radwańska (2012). It is her sixth Grand Slam title overall, having previously won the French Open (four times) and the US Open.
The win also completes Świątek’s set of Grand Slam victories across all three major surfaces: clay, hard, and grass. She joins a select group of players who have achieved this milestone and is one of the few to have also captured both junior and senior Wimbledon titles.
Tournament Recap and Statistical Highlights
Świątek’s path to the title included a series of straight-set wins, with the exception of a three-set match in the quarterfinals. She dropped only one set during the entire tournament. Her performance in the final — marked by consistent baseline play, minimal unforced errors, and tactical serving — reflected her growing adaptability to grass courts.
Anisimova, aged 23, reached the final after a strong run that included wins over several seeded players, including Aryna Sabalenka in the semifinals. Despite the lopsided scoreline in the final, her progress marked her best result to date at a Grand Slam event.
Historical Context
Świątek’s 6–0, 6–0 result is the first in a Wimbledon women’s final in 114 years, with the last instance occurring in 1911. It is also only the second double bagel in a women’s major final in the Open Era, the other being Steffi Graf’s 1988 French Open win.
Saturday’s result adds a significant chapter to Świątek’s career and to Polish tennis history. Her dominance at Wimbledon further solidifies her position as the leading player in women’s tennis and underscores her versatility across surfaces.
