Wimbledon 2025 LIVE RESULTS: Carlos Alcaraz looks for THIRD consecutive title against World No 1 Jannik Sinner
Anisimova 0-6 0-6 Swiatek
Anisimova – who was allowed to go backstage momentarily for a quick cry – sobbed before she started speaking to Annabel Croft in the trophy presentations and then ended it in tears when she talked about her mum.
She said: 'Thank you Iga, you're such an incredible player. It obviously showed today.
'You have been such an inspiration to me, an unbelievable athlete. You have had such an incredible two weeks here.
'Getting to the final of your first Wimbledon and then winning it. It's so special.
'Thank you to everyone who has supported me since my first-round match.
'You guys have carried me through this entire championship. An incredible fortnight.
'Even though I ran out of gas and I wish that I could put on a better performance for all of you, you guys were still there for me and lifted me up.
'It has been such a privilege playing here, making it to the Championship match. To compete in front of all of you has been so, so special. I'll never forget this experience and all these memories.
'My mum flew in this morning. She has put in more work than I have honestly. My mum is the most selfless person I know. She has done everything to get me to this point in my life.'
