Wimbledon Women's Singles Final: Iga Świątek vs Amanda Anisimova Live Updates

Either Amanda Anisimova or Iga Świątek will leave the All England Club's grass courts as Wimbledon's eighth consecutive first-time women's champion. The revolving door of champions can be attributed to several factors according to Chris Evert, a former Wimbledon champion. Evert mentioned the deep talent pool in the game, the short turnaround time after the French Open, the unique challenges of playing on grass, and the absence of a dominant figure like Serena Williams.

Since Serena Williams' last Wimbledon win in 2016, every female champion has been a first-time winner. The recent champions include Garbiñe Muguruza, Angelique Kerber, Simona Halep, Ash Barty, Elena Rybakina, Marketa Vondrousova, and Barbora Krejcikova. In contrast, the men's Wimbledon champions have been dominated by a smaller group of players such as Roger Federer, Novak Djokovic, Rafael Nadal, Andy Murray, and Carlos Alcaraz.
