Championship weekend at the All England Club is set.
The women’s final is set for Saturday morning after another upset along the way. No. 13 seed Amanda Anisimova took down No. 1 seed Aryna Sabalenka in three sets on Thursday to reach her first Grand Slam final in thrilling fashion. After serving for the match up 5-3 in the third, Sabalenka scored a break to push it back on serve. But Anisimova answered immediately by scoring the first three points of the 10th game and eventually getting the win. She’ll take on No. 8 seed Iga Swiatek, who eliminated Belinda Bencic in straight sets (6-2, 6-0).
“To be honest, if you told me I would be in the final at Wimbledon, I would not believe you,” Anisimova said. “At least not this soon. It’s been a year turnaround since coming back, to be in this spot, it’s not easy. So many people dream of competing on this incredible court. To be in the final, it’s just indescribable honestly.”
Swiatek, meanwhile, is into her first career Wimbledon final after years of struggling on the surface. Swiatek had never made it past the quarterfinals in London in five previous appearances. The native of Poland is also in the midst of a down year by her standards where she is set to claim a tournament championship.
