The American reached her first Slam final 18 months after a mental health break but struggled in London’s extreme heat.

LONDON: Amanda Anisimova said she was “frozen by nerves” as her Wimbledon dream turned into a nightmare as Iga Swiatek romped to a historic 6-0, 6-0 victory in Saturday’s final.

Anisimova had enjoyed a fairytale run to her first Grand Slam final just 18 months after returning to the game from a break to help her mental health.

However, she admitted the occasion and the draining nature of a two-week slam played in blistering conditions during a London heatwave had taken its toll in the most one-sided final for 114 years.
