Anisimova looks as if she's pretty much given up already.
Hard to believe she beat Sabalenka with the way she is playing right now!

It’s a shame this wasn’t against Sabalenka, would have been a more competitive match. Swiatek is just too powerful here.

Crazy when you think how mentally strong she was in the last match.

Looks like she’s about to cry.
I hope you put some money on this
I had Swiatek to win the first set 6-3 or better, that never happens to me
Honestly wouldn't be surprised. I play quite a lot and somehow there are very few worse feelings in the world than playing tennis badly. It makes you feel like nothing in your life is going right, it's quite bizarre
Edit: and this is just playing at club level. God knows how the same thing feels in a Wimbledon final!

She definitely had a very sullen and stroppy expression on her face.

Oh dear. I think she was actually crying unless it's sweat.
I wish I had put money down on Swiatek although knowing my luck, Anisimova would all of a sudden be bossing it.

I think it's a bit embarrassing but maybe coz I'm female I'm judging harsher.
She's in a Wimbledon final at 23. Not sure how thats embarrassing tbh
Didn't Novak break down into tears in the 2021 US Open final? It happens to the best of both genders. It's a really high pressure, individual sport.
