Iga Swiatek finally ended her wait for a maiden Wimbledon title on Saturday and she did it in some style. The Pole demolished her American opponent Amanda Anisimova in the women's singles final and won the match in straight sets. What was even more fascinating, was the fact that she didn't lose a single game and wrapped the finale with a 6-0, 6-0 scoreline, making it a rare double bagel.

This was the first time since 1911 that the women's title at Wimbledon was won without losing a game. Prior to this only Dorothea Lambert Chambers, a British, had managed to record the scoreline. She had defeated Dora Boothby, also an English, over a century ago.

Meanwhile, the victory also saw Swiatek become the first Polish to win a Wimbledon title in singles competition. “I’d never won this title, I was anxious about that [in previous years], but this year I really really enjoyed it and felt so comfortable," Swiatek noted after her win.

The title took her Grand Slam tally to six (4 French Open, 1 US Open, and 1 Wimbledon title). Swiatek had displayed clinical form throughout the campaign and dropped just one set en route to the final. The feat saw 24-year-old Swiatek win majors on all three surfaces and the youngest woman to do so since Serena Williams.

This was for the ninth successive time that the Wimbledon women’s title was won by a different winner.

Meanwhile, it was a heartbreak for Anisimova, who had defeated world no. 1 Aryna Sabalenka in the semifinals. She failed to control her emotions, which was understandable.

“Congratulations Iga. Thank you to everyone who’s supported me. It’s been an incredible fortnight for me and even though I ran out of gas today (in the final) and I wish I could have put in a better performance for you today, you guys still lifted me up, so thank you so much,” noted Anisimova with tears in her eyes. She also thanked her mother, who was in the stands for the show. “She’s (her mother) put in more work than I have, honestly,” Anisimova noted.
