Remember Iga Swiatek‘s words after she thrashed Amanda Anisimova at the Center Court nearly two months ago? “I didn’t even want to consider the option of slowing down and letting her get into the match,” said the 24-year-old after wrapping up the Wimbledon summit clash in just 57 minutes to defeat the American with a double bagel. Perhaps that could change at Flushing Meadows. At least that is what Amanda Anisimova hopes.
After Anisimova won pulled off a rather one-sided 6-0, 6-3 win against Beatriz Haddad Maia, she was made aware that a Wimbledon final rematch with Swiatek is up next. And Anisimova’s reaction said it all. “Who would’ve thought we’d be meeting again so soon? I’m super excited. It’s gonna be a great match… I hope this time. I mean, she’s playing some great tenni,s and I hope that we will put up a great performance.”
