Iga Swiatek dished out the first 6-0 6-0 in a Wimbledon women’s singles final history since 1911 as the Pole clinched her maiden title at the All England Club.
Swiatek ended a year-long trophy drought in incredible fashion, beating American Amanda Anisimova with a ‘double bagel’ [6-0 6-0 scoreline] to become a Wimbledon champion.
It is only the second time in Wimbledon’s history that a women’s final has ended with the same scoreline when Dorothea Lambert Chambers beat Dora Boothby in 1911.

Julian Cash and Lloyd Glasspool have become the first all-British pair to win the Wimbledon men’s doubles title since 1936.
Queen’s Club and Eastbourne champions Cash and Glasspool became the first all-British pairing to win the All England Club trophy since 1936, when Pat Hughes and Raymond Tuckey defeated their compatriots Charles Hare and Frank Wilde in the final.
“When you say that it sounds incredible,” said Glasspool. “It’s been one Brit (winner) the last couple of years, now we’ve given you two Brits.”
The pair downed Rinky Hijikata and David Pel 6-2 7-6 (7-3).
