American Amanda Anisimova upsets Iga Swiatek to advance to U.S. Open semis

Less than two months ago, Amanda Anisimova couldn’t claim a single game against Iga Swiatek in the Wimbledon final.

On Wednesday, the American enacted the ultimate revenge.

In a U.S. Open upset, No. 8 Anisimova defeated No. 2 Swiatek, 6-4, 6-3, at Arthur Ashe Stadium to advance to the semifinals.

Anisimova is the second American woman to reach the semis, joining No. 4 Jessica Pegula, who is set to face No. 1 Aryna Sabalenka on Thursday night.
