With her opponent standing away, the US 2025 Women’s Champion told Anisimova: “Congratulations Amanda on Cefn Slam Cefn Back back (Wimbledon and the open United States). I know how much it hurts, losing in the final. But trust me, the moment you win the first one – and you’re going to win it.

Anisimova, 24, has come back remarkably after stepping away from the sport to focus on her mental health. Amanda initially continued to play following the death of her father and coach, Konstantin AnisimovIn 2019 but announced it was taking time away from Denis in 2023.
“I’ve really been struggling with my mental health and burning out since the summer of 2022,” explained Anisimova via Instagram in May 2023. “It has become intolerable to be in tennis tournaments.”

While Anisimova and Sabalenka showed their respect in the US Open Final on Saturday, they had an experienced exchange earlier in the year. The Native of New Jersey was excited Sabalenka at Semifinal Wimbledon 2025 in July, although there were arguments during a game in the third set where he touched a front volley of Anisimova to the top of the net string before falling over.
Sabalenka suggested at a press conference after the game that Anisimova did not apologize to her for the error.
“I just looked at it and I didn’t hear me, but I was just like, ‘You don’t want to say sorry?’ But she probably wanted to win this fight.

Following her semifinal loss 6-4, 4-6, 6-4 in Wimbledon, Sabalenka also complained that Anisimova celebrated a point prematurely and should have been docked by the referee.
“I was just trying to chase the ball. She was already celebrating her. I mean, that’s a bit too early,” insisted on Sabalenka. “Then she kind of pissed me away, saying, ‘Oh, that’s what she does all the time.’ … I came back because I was very angry at that moment, probably in the third set (which lost) I should have remembered that.
At its own press conference, Anisimova tried to downgrade the dispute by explaining that it was not “celebrating” the point prematurely.
“It was just like a long grunt,” he said in July. “I don’t really know what the deal was there to be honest because I didn’t feel like it was intervening. I tried not to do it again.”
Meanwhile, Sabalenka secured her fourth Grand Slam Championship with her victory over Anisimova during the US Open Final on Saturday.
“It’s just crazy,” she said in her interview after the game. “All those tough lessons (was) were worth this one. I’m nowhere right now. I love it. I love the support. I like throughout the years (the fans and I) have built a kind of relationship, and you give me so much support … Thanks guys for bringing the best atmosphere.”
