Amanda Anisimova has been one of the undisputed protagonists of the year 2025. Until the beginning of this season, there was a feeling in the air of "unfulfilled promise," of generational talent unable to reach the heights that were expected of her tennis: the prolonged hiatus she experienced months ago, stemming from a significant mental health crisis, reinforced the feeling for many that Amanda would never fully display her talent.

But in this 2025, a new figure has emerged firmly established in the elite WTA, an Amanda Anisimova who rules from the baseline with a spectacular array of shots, who dominates and subdues her opponents and surprises them masterfully with pieces of craftsmanship like her backhand down the line... and who bounces back from the toughest falls with the conviction and resilience of a veteran. The best part? It seems that her stay on the circuit is long, but she is only 24 years old, which outlines a horizon of more than a decade of contending for major titles.

The rapid rise of the American lacked only, perhaps, a Grand Slam. She came very close, reaching two finals and falling to the recent mainstays (Swiatek at Wimbledon, Sabalenka at the US Open), which reinforces the feeling that this Major is forthcoming. Will 2026 be the season of her definitive breakthrough? Has she broken down all the mental barriers necessary to even vie for the throne of the women's circuit? Betting against it, at least, does not seem advisable.

Anisimova is very satisfied with her season and gives special value to her 'vendetta' against Swiatek after her tough loss in the Wimbledon final

Entering the next season having shown an unprecedented mental strength is the key point Anisimova emphasizes. That mental strength was evident, for example, in her victory over Iga Swiatek in New York. She had just lost by a double 6-0 in a Grand Slam final, receiving, consequently, all kinds of articles and press... and the ghosts, instead of reappearing, vanished quickly. It was a confirmation, therefore, that the new Amanda Anisimova has already arrived on the circuit, and she herself, in a conversation with Sports Illustrated, values the story behind that encounter.

"It is a victory that I am very proud of. I told myself before the match that it was a new day, a new match, a new... everything. A different experience, different. I kept telling myself that over and over, and then I got to the gym to warm up before the match, and on TV they were showing the Wimbledon final. I didn't pay attention to the TV. I just saw out of the corner of my eye that it said ESPN, that it was Wimbledon... and I think that fueled me. It motivated me. I told myself: 'I've got this'. That match tells a story: the story that you can come back from such an experience, which was all over the front pages. That it's okay, that it can happen, and after that, you have the option to rewrite the script. I am very happy with how I handled the situation."

It was a very successful season for Anisimova, who, when pinpointing an aspect she is most proud of, is very clear: consistency. "I started the year well, winning Doha in February, my first WTA 1000; then I did well mid-year, winning another WTA 1000, and also at the end of the season. In the past, I struggled a lot to follow up my good results weeks later, I suffered when I had to compete week after week, and that's where I believe I have grown the most as a player."

The end of the conversation is revealing: Amanda, after admitting that she has been competing since she was 16 and is in a strange phase of her career (neither overly seasoned, nor as young as her ID may suggest), faces her relationship with time, without fear. With a conviction: she is in a professional and personal moment where the future is tinted with hope. "I don't think too much about the future. I have my goals, but life is unpredictable. Right now, I am enjoying myself, looking forward to 2026, and I feel like my career restarted not long ago, that there are many things that still have to come." Will 2026 be Amanda Anisimova's year? There is a whirlwind eager to answer affirmatively to this question... and Australia will witness the first responses.
