The American's crushing defeat to Iga Świątek was rendered more painful by the way tennis works, but it also allows her to rebound.

Iga Swiatek has won her first Wimbledon championship with a 6-0, 6-0 victory over Amanda Anisimova in the final.

Iga Swiatek thrashed American Amanda Anisimova 6-0 6-0 to become the first Polish player to win a Wimbledon singles title on Saturday, ending a ludicrously lop-sided final in 57 minutes.The 24-year-old eighth seed was merciless as she took brutal advantage of Grand Slam final debutant Anisimova's leg-sapping nerves in front of a stunned Centre Court.
