A flawless Wimbledon final, a record-breaking win, and a multi-million-pound payday.
Iga Swiatek’s historic Wimbledon victory on Saturday marked a defining moment in her career. The 24-year-old Polish star, currently ranked No. 4 in the world, achieved her grass-court dreams by demolishing Amanda Anisimova 6-0, 6-0 to claim her first Wimbledon at the All England Club and her sixth Grand Slam title overall.
The dominant scoreline etched her name into the history books as the first woman in the Open Era to win a Wimbledon final without dropping a single game. She delivered a double bagel in a major final, something last seen in any Slam final in 1988, in the then French Open.

Iga Swiatek has beaten Amanda Anisimova 6-0, 6-0 to win Wimbledon – it's just the second time in the Open Era that a Grand Slam singles final has finished in a 'double bagel'.

Swiatek’s Centre Court masterclass came with a fitting reward. For her victory at Wimbledon 2025, she earns a champion’s check of £3 million, approximately $4.09 million. It’s the highest payday of her career on grass and part of a record-breaking total prize pool of £38.83 million set by the All England Club this year.
Despite the brutal scoreline, Amanda Anisimova’s runner-up finish is a milestone achievement in her comeback journey, and it doesn’t come empty-handed. The American will receive £1.52 million, or about $2.07 million, for reaching her first Wimbledon final. It’s her biggest career payout to date.

mma I’m an academic turned sports writer from Raipur, India, specializing in the NFL, MMA, and tennis at The Playoffs. I previously wrote for Sportskeeda and hold a B.A. and M.A. in History. My journey into sports media began far from the field, rooted in the arts and sciences. Funny enough, I didn’t grow up a sports fan; I used to see it all as just noise. But a fateful writing job introduced me to the world of sports, and what began as a gig quickly became a passion. I understood those voices aren’t noise; they’re emotions of true sports fans, and now I am one of them, writing with the same energy I once questioned.
