The quarterfinal clash in the 2025 US Open women's singles between Anisimova and Swiatek is attracting particular attention from tennis fans.
The reason is that in the previous Wimbledon final, Swiatek made history by becoming the first player in the Open Era to win a "double bagel" with a clean 6-0, 6-0 victory in a women's singles final. Previously, only Steffi Graf had achieved this at Roland Garros in 1988.
This time, Anisimova entered the match with a more relaxed mindset, free from the burden of her first Grand Slam final. Furthermore, both neutral spectators and home fans sided with the American player, hoping to witness a "revenge" after the shock at Wimbledon, and Anisimova did not disappoint.
The match was tense, especially in the second set after the home player won the first set 6-3. When Anisimova led 5-3 and was serving to close out the match, she was ahead 40-0. However, psychological pressure caused her to commit two consecutive double faults, allowing Swiatek to narrow the score to 40-30.
Luck smiled on the eighth seed when, at the deciding point, a shot that hit the net bounced into Swiatek's court, giving her the win. If the score had been tied at 40-40, the world number two would most likely have broken back, as Anisimova was under immense psychological pressure at that point.

This is Anisimova's second victory in 2025 against a top 2 WTA player. Her first win was against Aryna Sabalenka at Wimbledon.
This impressive performance not only helped Anisimova advance deep into the 2025 US Open, but also affirmed her strong comeback in the world of women's tennis.
