Who is Amanda Anisimova? 23-year-old American set to face Iga Świątek in Wimbledon final

American tennis player Amanda Anisimova is headed to the Wimbledon women's singles finals after upsetting No. 1 contender Aryna Sabalenka in three sets on Thursday. In their semifinal matchup at the legendary Center Court, the pair scrapped to three, hard-fought 6-4 sets for the 23-year-old to overcome and secure a spot in the championship match. Anisimova put Sabalenka on notice by winning the first set. Despite dropping the second, Anisimova kept her composure through the third and cruised toward winning the match. Ahead of Anisimova's title effort against Iga Świątek, here is what we know about the No. 12-ranked player in the world. Advertisement Hailing from Aventura, Florida, Anisimova is no stranger to upsetting the greats. As a junior, she wrapped up her amateur career with a 6-0, 6-2 win over Coco Gauff in girls' singles at the US Open before turning pro. Anisimova had a career-high ITF junior ranking of No. 2 in 2016 and was part of the United States squad that won the Junior Fed Cup the following year. Anisimova made her professional debut by competing in the 2016 US Open qualifiers as a wild card at the age of 14, winning her first of three singles titles in 2019 at the Copa Colsanitas. Anisimova followed it up with wins at the 2022 Melbourne Summer Set 2 and the 2025 Qatar TotalEnergies Open. Advertisement Her upcoming match is Anisimova's best campaign at a Grand Slam tournament to date, surpassing her previous best performance — a semifinal appearance at the French Open in 2019. At Wimbledon, she incurred a third-round exit in 2024 and a quarterfinal loss in 2022 after beating Gauff in the third round. She has also reached the fourth round of the Australian Open on three occasions, including 2019, 2022 and 2024. Anisimova holds a singles record of 184–109 and a 4-8 doubles record. She is facing Świątek after wins over Renata Zarazúa, Dalma Gálfi, Linda Nosková, Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova and Sabalenka so far in the tournament. Anisimova's impressive run makes her the first American to compete in the Wimbledon ladies' singles final since Serena Williams in 2019, and the youngest American to accomplish the feat since ... you guessed it — Serena Williams — in 2004.
