Iga Swiatek tamed the demons that were haunting her in quest of her first title on grass by capturing the Venus Rosewater Dish at Wimbledon beating American Amanda Anisimova in a one-sided duel that had the Centre Court in disbelief prevailing 6-0, 6-0 for her sixth career Grand Slam and her maiden Wimbledon title, in a fairy tale encounter that Iga Swiatek dominated right from the start. Seven diamond-encrusted cameos can be described as her seven consecutive round wins while she annexed the elusive Wimbledon crown. It may be noted that no current contestants among women has won 6 Grand Slams, which is a huge achievement now that the women's circuit produces a galaxy of Grand Slam winners who do not win more than 4 titles. In fact in the last 114 years of this tournament, the finals has not produced a result where no game has been won by the vanquished. The appreciative jam packed crowd however gave both Iga Swiatek as well as Amanda Anisimova a standing ovation. Iga became the first Polish player to win Wimbledon ever. A memorable Wimbledon!
