Wimbledon 2025 LIVE RESULTS: Iga Swiatek THRASHES Amanda Anisimova to claim women's singles title
WIMBLEDON 2025 is heading for a thrilling final day after a stunning fortnight at SW19. On Saturday, a new women's singles champion was crowned as Iga Swiatek thrashed Amanda Anisimova in straight sets. The Polish superstar didn't drop one game during the final as she claimed the title for the first time in SW19 with a 6-0 6-0 victory - the first whitewash win in the women's singles at Wimbledon for 114 years. The men's doubles saw two Brits triumph after Julian Cash and Lloyd Glasspool secured a straight sets win over Rinky Hijikata and David Pel. Tomorrow will see Carlos Alcaraz defend his crown, and look for a third successive title, as he takes on World No1 Jannik Sinner in the men's singles final, just five weeks after their French Open classic. 7th Jul 2025, 08:58 By Connor Greaves Norrie the final Brit left standing Cameron Norrie struggled into the Wimbledon quarter finals after a four-hour, five-set slogfest that saw his opponent Nicolas Jarry go on a TOPLESS rant to the umpire then square up to Norrie at the end. Norrie, 29, beat towering Chilean qualifier Jarry 6-3 7-6 6-7 6-7 6-3 on Court One in four hours and 27 minutes to remain the only male Brit still in the competition. It was the longest match of Norrie's professional career, and just the fifth time he had played in a contest that lasted over four hours, celebrating by lying on the floor with his tongue out. The South African-born player also became just the fourth British man in the Open Era to reach the last eight at Wimbledon on multiple occasions, joining the likes of Andy Murray, Tim Henman and Roger Taylor. Winning his ninth match in ten No1 Court outings, Norrie now has the chance to match his best run at SW19 after reaching the semis in 2022. Norrie will face an incredibly difficult task to reach the last 4 with his quarter-final opponent none other than reigning champion Carlos Alcaraz. 7th Jul 2025, 08:48 By Connor Greaves Order of Play on Courts 1 & 2 No. 1 Court - From 1pm Ekaterina Alexandrova [18] vs Belinda Bencic (SUI) Benjamin Shelton (USA) [10] vs Lorenzo Sonego (ITA) Iga Swiatek (POL) [8] vs Clara Tauson (DEN) [23] No. 2 Court - From 11am Marin Cilic (CRO) vs Flavio Cobolli (ITA) [22] Liudmila Samsonova [19] vs Jessica Bouzas Maneiro (ESP) 7th Jul 2025, 08:42 By Connor Greaves Order of Play on Centre Court Centre Court - From 1.30pm Alex de Minaur (AUS) [11] vs Novak Djokovic (SRB) [6] Mirra Andreeva [7] vs Emma Navarro (USA) [10] Jannik Sinner (ITA) [1] vs Grigor Dimitrov (BUL) [19] By Connor Greaves Good morning and welcome to SunSport's live blog of Wimbledon!

This is expected to be a cracker with both men ranked inside the top 10 by The Ring Magazine. Cuban Morrell (11-1, 9KOs) is the slight favourite over the undefeated Chechnyan, who now fights out of Australia (10-0, 9KOs). With those KO numbers we are expecting an absolute cracker. Both men are in the ring now and we should be underway very shortly. 12th Jul 2025, 23:45 By Connor Greaves Berlanga's last five Berlanga bounced back from his defeat to Canelo Alvarez with a win over Jonathan Gonzalez-Ortiz last time out.

That was a beautiful display of boxing by hard-hitting Japanese starlet Reito Tsutsumi! In just his second pro fight, the lightweight got rid of Ruiz out of there in the second round.

Can Rangers' star rise again with no stellar signings at Ibrox?
B etween Tutbury and Barton-under-Needwood, between Burton-upon-Trent and Draycott in the Clay, football players from Glasgow are sweating it out on a pitch so hot it is being hosed with water regularly. Pitch number four at St George's Park, English football's training HQ, to be specific. 'Good luck Lionesses' says the giant message displayed behind the complex's reception desk about the women's team at Euro 2025. Rangers are in Staffordshire. If they are to come together and achieve anything in Scotland this season it will be a feat with its genesis here in the very heart of England. Russell Martin is out beasting his players on that training pitch. They have already had to do extra running in the week as 'punishment' for disappointing him in some minor way (he laughs off an attempt to find out how they had fallen below the necessary levels). Now in an open training session there is a warm-up then an adapted, high-intensity seven-a-side game with separate teams in yellow, blue or red bibs, including Martin himself playing at the back for the yellows. Then set-piece practice, defending and attacking free kicks, and then the same with crosses. An 11-v-11 game to finish. One of those sides builds out from the back and neatly goes all the way to score at the other end. 'You look like a team,' Martin shouts at them, clearly pleased. 'When you move like that you look like a team.' He talks to them all a lot. Swears a lot too. Those who have been around the club for a while say he is more vocal during training than recent predecessors. These are players and a management team still sussing each other out. He tells them the sort of possession he wants from his defenders at the back: 'Not side to side, f***ing passive.'
