London – Iga Swiatek delivered a commanding performance at Wimbledon 2025, defeating Amanda Anisimova 6-0, 6-0 to secure her first-ever title at the prestigious Grand Slam. The Polish star used the moment to address growing criticism from sections of the media in her home country.
At the post-match press conference, the 24-year-old World No. 4 shared her frustration with ongoing scrutiny. “It hasn’t been pleasant dealing with how the Polish media has treated me and my team in recent months,” Swiatek said. “I know what I’m doing. I’ve got the best people by my side. I just wish they would let me work in peace.”
Swiatek’s victory comes after a period of mixed results, including early exits at the Madrid and Italian Opens, and heavy speculation over her playing style and coaching decisions. However, she firmly believes her track record speaks for itself. “I have already proven a lot,” she asserted.
Despite never having advanced past the quarterfinals at Wimbledon before, Swiatek said this win held a special place in her heart. “Winning here feels more emotional than even Roland Garros, because I wasn’t sure I could do it on grass.”
The win marks a defining moment in Swiatek’s career, silencing doubters and adding another major trophy to her growing legacy.
