Amanda Anisimova endured Wimbledon re-run before a courageous victory over Iga Swiatek in Us Open
Amanda Anisimoa admitted that she had to endorse a reassessment of her final Wimbledon nightmare before evoking the softest victories of revenge against Iga Swiatek at the US Open.
Anisimova received a 6-0 6-0 humiliating defeat by the SW19 post in July-his game is completely broken down on the central field while the dream of reaching his first final of the Grand Slam quickly turned to the eyebrow.
The 24-year-old watched the match again the day before, before facing Swiatek in New York, then quickly delivered “the most significant victory in my life” to see the second seed 6-4 6-3 to qualify for the semi-finals.
Anisimova submits to the wicked wimbledon video
“I looked at them [highlights] Back, as painful as it was, just to see what I can avoid or what did not work, “she said.
“Then, after having to look at good strengths to remove this from my brain!”
It was a remarkable feat of mental force on the part of the American, who took a break in sport two years ago after being emptied of life on tour.
She even admitted that it had not taken long for the embarrassment of Wimbledon to disappear.
“The most I felt bad was for the people who had come to watch that day,” she added.
“I know how much people pay for these tickets and are delighted to see Wimbledon. In a way, I had this guilt on my back, instead of winning my first Grand Chelem final.
“On the ground, I was crying and maybe [for] 30 minutes later, but I went on the phone with someone and I laughed a bit.
“At the end of the day, it was only tennis. I am in a very good place in my life. I am happy every day, which I was not a few years ago. ”
Osaka Up Next in the semi-finals
The match started a bit disturbingly for Anisimova when she lost her service in the opening match, but she superbly ridiculed to set up a confrontation of the last four times with the quadruple major champion Naomi Osaka, who saw the 11th head of Karolina Muchova.
“When I couldn’t keep in this first game, I was as OK, off you go,” she said with a smile. [But] Today, I really came there with not an ounce of fear. »»
The other semi-final sees the seeded Aryna Sabalenka facing the Jessica Pegula house.
