Iga Swiatek, after winning her fourth title at the French Open, chose to skip grass tournaments to focus on recovery. She lost in the third round of Wimbledon that year. In 2025, following an early exit in the semifinals at Roland Garros, she had more time to prepare for grass. This experience paid off as she dominated the Wimbledon final, defeating Amanda Anisimova with a stunning 6-0, 6-0 victory, securing her sixth Grand Slam title and expressing surprise at her achievement.
"If I would lose here earlier, maybe I would be able to play two more weeks on grass and then be a better grass player... I love playing on clay, so I'm not going to give up that ever."
"Honestly, I didn't even dream [of this] because for me it was just way too far. I feel like I'm already an experienced player... but I never really expected this one."
