Amazing Anisimova 👏 Emotional scenes on Centre Court as @AnisimovaAmanda beats Coco Gauff 6-7(4), 6-2, 6-1 #Wimbledon | #CentreCourt100
Amanda Anisimova played a fabulous match to down Coco Gauff in three sets and move on to the 4th round of Wimbledon 6-7(4) 6-2 6-1.
It was her first-ever time playing on the centre court and she did not disappoint. It was a slow start for her, nothing unusual for her as she plays quite aggressively and it takes time to find a good rhythm. Gauff jumped out to a 3-0 lead but then lost four games in a row to give Anisimova a 4-3 lead. A couple of bad misses made it 4-4 and in the tiebreak, it was Anisimova who took the early 4-1 lead.
She then lost six points in a row to lose the tiebreak 7-4 missing a couple of really easy shots. She finished the opening set with 26 unforced errors which was way too much but she still lost a fairly close set. That was trouble for Gauff especially if Anisimova found more control of her shots and she did.
She outplayed her opponent easily 6-2 in the 3rd set to force a decider and in the decider, she outplayed Gauff a bit more. Overall she committed only 15 more unforced errors in those two sets winning them 6-2 6-1. It was a fabulous performance from her and one where she proved she can go all the way if things fall into place. She celebrate the win notably showing just how much it meant to her.

- Must be okay to do this because WTA apparently could care less. They seem to be even more distant since the Saudi's filled their personal bank accounts. This particular smashing was extreme... and in front of so many little children who (unfortunately in some cases) look up to these players.
mandoist02-05-2024 - Unfortunately the WTA & ITF Fat-Cats are comfortable lounging in their elite surroundings and do not hear anything they do not wish to hear. Not to mention how any compassion, concerns, or sensibility toward the general overall health of players likely went away with their filthy Saudi pocket money.mandoist02-05-2024
