Iga Swiatek won Saturday’s Wimbledon women’s final in such dominant fashion that it produced a feat not seen in over a century.

Swiatek beat Amanda Anisimova 6-0, 6-0 in Saturday’s final, a rare double bagel in a major championship. That had not been done in a women’s final at Wimbledon since 1911, when Dorothea Lambert Chambers defeated Dora Boothby by the same scoreline.

Iga Swiatek's win over Amanda Anisimova makes this the first time since 1911 that a Wimbledon women's singles final has ended with a 6-0, 6-0 scoreline.

Goodness gracious.

Swiatek was in total control from the start, and won 55 of the match’s 79 points. She was helped by Anisimova’s 28 unforced errors, but even without those, Swiatek had the upper hand from start to finish.

The win marked Swiatek’s sixth major title, but was her first at Wimbledon. She only needs to win an Australian Open to complete a career grand slam.

Swiatek’s season has not been smooth sailing the whole way through. She was outstanding on Saturday, though, and now has a Wimbledon title and a bit of history to show for it.
