Wimbledon 2025 delivered one of the most jaw-dropping moments in tennis history – young American Amanda Anisimova suffered the most crushing defeat ever in a Wimbledon final, losing to Iga Świątek with a brutal 6-0, 6-0 scoreline. Yes, you read that right – zero games won! This kind of wipeout is so rare that only two similar cases are recorded in Wimbledon’s history, and those were back in the amateur era over half a century ago. Amanda couldn’t hold back her tears right after the match, even as she congratulated her dominant opponent. Iga Świątek claimed her fifth Grand Slam title with this victory, and the match lasted less than an hour, underscoring her total domination on the court.
This defeat will be talked about for ages because it’s something you almost never see in professional tennis, especially on such a huge stage as Wimbledon. While Anisimova was completely powerless, Świątek showed why she’s currently one of the best players in the world. Meanwhile, the men’s final is set to be a thriller between Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner, with Novak Djokovic having bowed out in the semifinals.
The event sparked a flood of reactions on social media, with many expressing sympathy for Anisimova but also admiration for Świątek. Some wondered if this kind of loss would impact the young American’s career, while others pointed out how tough it is to maintain top form in a world full of pressure and sky-high expectations.
