Iga Swiatek reflects on her loss to Amanda Anisimova

For Iga Swiatek, her US Open exit marks the end of an incredible summer. The Pole began her campaign in New York with wins over Emiliana Arnago and Suzan Lamens. She then outdid Anna Kalinskaya and Ekaterina Alexandrova in straight sets, but was unable to get past the quarterfinals.
Reflecting on her loss to Amanda Anisimova, Swiatek told media,
“I know what I achieved, so I can't erase it because I lost today. I think I didn't serve the best throughout the whole tournament, but I think because [Anisimova] returned so well, you could see the bigger difference. I'm aware I couldn't win today's match playing like that, serving like that, and with Amanda being so aggressive on the returns. So I kind of get it. I kind of have to let it go and just focus on the next one.”
Overall, Iga Swiatek delivered some fantastic performances in Grand Slam tournaments over the course of 2025. She reached back-to-back semifinals at the Australian Open and French Open, and was the titleist at the Wimbledon Championships.
