American tennis player Amanda Anisimova achieved a stunning victory over Iga Swiatek in the US Open quarter-finals, winning 6-4, 6-3 in a high-quality match at Flushing Meadows.
Just 53 days after a one-sided Wimbledon final loss to the Polish second seed, Anisimova rewatched the defeat to identify mistakes, fueling her fearless performance in New York.
The 24-year-old eighth seed displayed superb backhand skill and movement, hitting 23 winners and capitalizing on Swiatek’s second serve to secure the win.
Anisimova, who has adopted a positive mindset since taking a mental health break, overcame early nerves and a break in the first game to break back immediately, maintaining composure to reach her third Grand Slam semi-final.
She now faces Naomi Osaka, a four-time major champion, in the semi-finals.
Anisimova’s confidence grew throughout the tournament, and she credited her ability to move past the Wimbledon loss quickly, focusing on her love for tennis and personal happiness.
The home crowd’s support bolstered her as she served out the victory, marking a significant milestone in her career resurgence.
