Everything about Amanda Anisimova’s family, including her parents and sister

Amanda Anisimova was a star at the Wimbledon 2025 championships, and her parents made important sacrifices to take him there.

In 1998, Konstantin Anisimov and Olga Anisimova moved to the United States of Russia with their 10-year-old daughter, the older sister of Amanda, Maria Egee, to give her more opportunities. After the birth of Amanda in 2001, the family of four again moved from New Jersey to Florida to support the growing tennis ambitions of Maria.

They quickly realized that Amanda had her own talent.

“Certainly the pressure is large and above all the pressure increases when it goes unexpectedly,” said Konstantin The New York Times In May 2017. “Because then it is very difficult to stay in the course and to be realistic and not to be delusional. I saw a lot of parents who were immediately delusional, and these stories find themselves in a very bad way. You cannot express too much. You cannot push too much.”

Although Maria left tennis after university and entered finance, Amanda became a pro at 15. She won three female titles and reached the quarter -finals at the Wimbledon 2022 championships. Three years later, she is now participating in the Wimbledon final after defeating Aryna Sabalenka.

Unfortunately, Konstantin could not see his daughter’s hard work paying. He unexpectedly died of a heart attack a few days before the United States Open in August 2019. Amanda, only 17 years at the time, withdrew from the tournament and took some time before returning in January the following year.

“As soon as I came back to tennis, that’s what made me happy,” she said New York Post In January 2020. “And I know that is what my father would like me to do. This is what would make him proud.”

Here is all that to know about the parents and sister of Anisimova d’Amanda.

Olga and Konstantin emigrated from Russia in 1998

Konstantin said The New York Times In 2017, he and Olga moved from their home to Moscow in the United States in 1998, in the hope of obtaining more opportunities for Maria, who was 10 years old at the time. When they lived in Moscow, Konstantin worked in finance and in bank, and Olga was an accountant.

“My wife had parents who had lived in the United States for a long time,” he said. “They sent us an invitation to come and visit this country. We visited it, and we liked it more and more, and we start to think and take it seriously. ”

Three years later, Amanda was born in the canton of Freehold, NJ

Maria inspired Amanda to play tennis

Amanda was not the only tennis player in the family. Maria began to practice sport when the family lived in Moscow and finally succeeded on the list of the female team of the University of Pennsylvania.

Inspired by the talent of her older sister, Amanda started playing tennis with her mother when she was only 2 years old. Olga said The New York Times In 2017, “nobody touched” his daughter’s technique until the age of 7, which allowed him to develop his skills.

“If I played a tournament, Amanda would be held outside the fence of the courtyard and would imitate what I was doing,” said Maria later The New York Times In December 2019. “She had a little baby racket, and my parents said:” Okay, we’re going to get there a chance. “”

The family has moved to Florida to help their daughters train

A year after the birth of Amanda, Maria convinced her parents to visit the IMG Academy (sports training and a boarding school) in Bradenton, Florida The New York TimesThe family moved to Miami two years later, in 2004, to help Maria train more seriously and get a place in a university team.

Konstantin began to train tennis to make a living, despite never playing the game.

Konstantin was Amanda’s principal coach until he separated from Olga

Although she worked with other coaches and practiced with tennis large people like Lindsay Davenport, Konstantin was Amanda principal coach during most of his career. Olga taught him the fundamentals.

Just before his death in 2019, he separated from Olga, and a new team of coaches was created, according to The New York Times.

“The two parents have so much set up Amanda tennis,” said Nick Saviano, Amanda coach and longtime advisor The New York Times. “It’s really exciting to see it all starts to emerge and so sad to know that Konstantin will not be there to appreciate all his dreams materialize.”

Maria did the Forbes 30 sous 30 list in 2018

All this hard work has borne fruit when Maria won a place in the women’s tennis team at the University of Pennsylvania. In 2010, she obtained a baccalaureate in economics and followed her traces of her parents with a career in finance, according to her LinkedIn profile.

Maria has taken another important step in 2018 when she was appointed Forbes’30 List of under 30 for influential finance figures. At the time, she worked as director of Bank of America and had previously held a position as vice-president at Goldman Sachs.

She started working as a portfolio manager for Loop Capital in 2025.

His father died of a heart attack in 2019

On August 19, 2019, Konstantin died of a heart attack at his home in Florida. He was 52 years old and Amanda was only 17 years old. She said The New York Times In December 2019, it was “really difficult” to leave his house after the death of his father.

“It is obviously the most difficult thing I had to go through and the most difficult thing that has ever happened to me, and I don’t really talk about it with anyone,” said Amanda. “I just don’t really feel comfortable talking about it.

She continued: “I guess the terrain and knock it out of tennis bullets are how I realize my feelings, and that’s where I spent most of my time with my father.”

She has a nephew

Maria’s son Jaxon made some appearances on Amanda Instagram and in the stands. After reaching the semi-finals at the Wimbledon 2025 championships, he joined it for his post-match interview, by CNN.

“He stole this morning, and it’s his birthday on Thursday,” Amanda told journalists, noting that he was 4 years old and that his match was the first he ever saw. “I am simply grateful that they took the plane and were able to experience it with me. It doesn’t happen often. It’s super special. ”

Amanda said that she continued to play tennis because it would make her father happy

Even if she said The New York Times That sorrow “never disappears”, Amanda has found comfort to do what she – and her father – loved the most.

“The only thing that helped me is to play tennis and be on the ground,” she said. “This is what makes me happy, and I know that it would make him happy, so it’s like that.”
