Swiatek made history with her 2-0 victory in the final. She became the first tennis player in Wimbledon history to win a final match 6-0 without giving up a single game.
Previously, Steffi Graf had won the final match 2-0 at the Rolland Garos, and she also didn't give up a single game.
While it was a happiest day for Swiatek, it was also a saddest day for Anisimova. She had made it to the final well, but she can't easily forget this devastating loss. She, too, became a part of this history.

Well that can also defined Anisimova. I mean yeah, it might be a hard swallow to pill, but she should go back and continue and that devastating lost could be one of his motivation to keep on grinding hard and one day win a grand slam.

So we will see, she shouldn't take it negatively. As for Swiatek, good for her, this win will obviously give her that strength as there are a lot of detractors saying that she is just a one hit pony. But winning a GS will catapult her with that new confidence.

Definitely, I would say that she would love to replay that match because she
would play differently and not let the occasion dominate her match. She will
certainly be better prepared for the next opportunity.

Both my bets on Anisimova and Alcaraz lost, but that's just unpredictable Wimbeldon for you. Anisimova commited too many unforced errors while Alcaraz didn't nail his signature drop shots effectively.

Sinner had heavenly luck since he would have most likely lost to Dimitrov earlier if it wasn't for his sudden injury. Good to see 2 new Wimbeldon winners though.

we could argue that Dimitrov had to play so hard to try and beat Sinner that he
forced his body too much and got injured, his age played a big factor there.

But yea I think Sinner realised that he was lucky because he was likely on his
way home!
