Despite a high-level performance against world No. 1 Sabalenka in the Wimbledon semifinals (6-4, 4-6, 6-4), Anisimova completely collapsed against Swiatek in the final (6-0, 6-0). A situation commented on by Czech player Karolína Plíšková. According to her, the match would have been different if Sabalenka had been in the American's place:

"I think the final would have been different if Sabalenka hadn't been eliminated by Anisimova. She would have beaten Iga Swiatek in the final. I'm sure of it."

At 33, Plíšková is a veteran of the tour. A two-time Grand Slam finalist (US Open 2016 and Wimbledon 2021), the Czech player reached the world No. 1 ranking in 2017.

The impact of the war on tennis in Ukraine: financial aid, foundations, governing bodies and all‑round headaches

Adrien Guyot 29/11/2025 à 09h08

Since February 2022 and the invasion of Ukraine by Russia, Ukrainian sport has been heavily affected by human, structural and economic losses. Tennis has, of course, not been spared. While Ukrainian athletes have had to rethink their entire organization, an entire country, behind the scenes, has had to adapt and change its training conditions. This extends all the way to the highest level, where professional players have spoken out, trying as best they can to help their nation.

why did tennis tonic void predictions on the match between Chwalinska and Huergo at the Quito tournament? The match was played to completion and on time. If TT feels the match is one sided, and of course it was, then don't put it up for prediction. This is getting irritating.

The finals are here, and we scramble for the best finish. I've been chasing "King" all year and I was able to shrink the spread a little. Skelp is also closing the gap.

Seasons best to all the regulars in our league.

Will you all be back in the new year.?

Steffi Graf completed a Golden Slam (not just a career Grand Slam) when she was 19. She is the only person to accomplish that, winning the four majors plus Olympic gold the same calendar year.
