Sweater's Historic 6-0, 6-0 Wimbledon Win

 Wimbledon 2025:

 Ekaterina Szczytniak’s historic win – takes title in just 57 minutes

Venue: All England Club

Date: June 30-July 13

If history has taught us anything about Ekaterina Szczytniak, it’s that once she breaks her opponent’s serve, victory is almost certain — and in decisive fashion.

That was the scene we saw in the Wimbledon 2025 final on Saturday, as Poland’s star player Szczytnicka defeated American Amanda Anisimova 6-0, 6-0 in just 57 minutes to win her first Wimbledon title.

This scoreline is known in tennis as a ‘double bagel’ — meaning two sets without a break. It's an unusual result in any final, and especially rare in a major tournament like a Grand Slam.

Anisimova is not alone — several players have faced such a score.It was certainly a bittersweet moment for Anisimova, but she is not the only player who has been defeated by Shiv Onetik with such a score.

In 2021, Shivonetik also won the trophy by defeating former world number one Karolina Pliskova in the final of the Italian Open by the exact same score (6-0, 6-0).

In 2025 alone, there have been 12 players who have lost a set 6-0 to Aiga, including:

• Diana Yastrzemski (twice)
• Emma Radicand
• Belinda Bencic
• Victoria Azarenka

These are all notable players, but Shivonetik's aggressive and completely controlled play left them helpless.

Same style at the Australian Open

At the Australian Open in January 2025, Shivone Tek won three of her first four matches 6-0. Now she is showing the same speed on grass courts — which was considered a weak point in her career at the beginning.

"Coming here, I was able to focus only on improving myself" — Shiv Onetek

Speaking after her Wimbledon victory, Iga said:

"Coming here, I was able to really focus on improving my performance and becoming a complete player. This time I didn't have so much pressure on me to win, and that's why I enjoyed the journey. The expectations were a little lower, and I felt like I could play with freedom."

This statement shows that for great players, not only skill, but also mental calmness and balance are the keys to success.

Wimbledon queen?

Szczesny's victory at Wimbledon 2025 is not only one of the biggest achievements of her career, but also proof that she has now become unbeatable on all court surfaces.If this form continues, the tennis world may be looking at a new era of queens.

Just how dominant was Swiatek in the final?

Aiga Schwan haler's historic win – complete dominance in the Wimbledon final! 🎾

Do you know how rare a 6-0, 6-0 final score is?

Aiga Schwanthaler not only won Wimbledon, she changed tennis history!

•  This was the first time since 1988 that a Grand Slam final had seen such a one-sided victory — the last time Steffi Graf had accomplished the feat.
•  This was the first time in Wimbledon Open Era history that a player had won the final by a double-double (6-0, 6-0).
•  Schwanthaler now joins the few players to have won the first set of a Wimbledon final 6-0 — along with Billie Jean King, Chris Evert, and Navratilova.

📊 The statistics are also amazing:

Not a single break point faced

Won 21/29 points on the first serve

Won 5/8 points on the second serve

🏆 Her record in Grand Slam finals:

6 finals, 6 victories, only 1 set lost — incredible!

👑 Ega Swiatek proved that she is not just a champion, but a symbol of an era.

Nazimova's struggles on serve

 Swiatek was helped along the way by the mistakes Anisimova made as the pressure of playing in a first Grand Slam final told. 

 The American made 28 unforced errors compared with just 11 for Swiatek and double-faulted five times. Anisimova said after the match her serve is something she can work on.

 "I've struggled with my serve, as most people probably can tell by the looks of it and the statistics," she said. 

 Anisimova hit 41 double faults over the two weeks at Wimbledon - 17 more than any other player in the women's singles draw. Across all the players on the WTA Tour she ranks ninth for the most double faults in 2025, with 149 in 35 matches.

 Nazimova's inspiring Wimbledon journey ends 

While it was a chastening experience for Anisimova in her first major final, it had been an encouraging and inspiring journey to get there. The big-hitting American has been tipped as a future Grand Slam champion since she was a teenager and reached the 2019 French Open semi-finals as a 17-year-old. 

 Later that year, the sudden death of her father Konstantin - who was also her coach - contributed to her falling out of love with tennis. Four years later, Anisimova took a break for her mental health and spent about seven months off the tour. 

 This time last year she was trying to avoid watching Wimbledon as she had lost in the third round of qualifying while ranked 191st in the world.

 But, having climbed back to the verge of the top 10, she has reminded the world of her obvious talent, particularly against world number one Aryna Sabalenka in the semi-finals. Anisimova was far below her best against Swiatek, however. 

In the warm-up she looked tense and it showed in the opening points of the match.

 Rushing into her shots, Nazimova's groundstrokes were loose and Swiatek continued to take time away from her. 

 Afterwards, Anisimova revealed she did not practise on Friday because she felt "really fatigued" and also had to take regular breaks during her pre-final warm-up on Saturday.

 "If anything, it's my physicality that I need to work on," she said. 

 "To be able to last two weeks in a Grand Slam is definitely something that you need to work a lot on. It's not an easy feat.
