Amanda in the final after defeating Sabalenka, top seed Aryna Sabalenka became a victim of upset

She is an inspiration for me and a lot of people. We have had many tough matches. Today, winning and reaching the Wimbledon final is very special for me. The atmosphere was unbelievable. I know she is number one, but a lot of people were cheering for me. Thank you very much to all of you.

The temperature on the Center Court had reached 30 degrees Celsius and Sabalenka gave cold water and ice packs to two sick spectators in the middle of the match to help them. But in the tenth game, she herself broke down under Amanda's pressure. 23-year-old Amanda made Sabalenka struggle for every point. She won the first set on Sabalenka's double fault.

Under pressure, Sabalenka made a great comeback in the second set. She equalized the set by taking a 4-3 lead, while Amanda made some mistakes during this. At the beginning of the final set, both players broke each other's service, but Anisimova again put pressure when one of Sabalenka's shots went long and eventually she managed to make it to the final, where she will face Iga Swiatek or Belinda Bencic.
