In a rollercoaster semifinal at London’s WTA Queen’s Club, American Amanda Anisimova pulled off a major upset, defeating China’s Zheng Qinwen 6-2, 4-6, 6-4 on Saturday. The match had fans on the edge of their seats as both players traded powerful groundstrokes and dramatic momentum shifts. 🎢
Anisimova, seeded eighth, dominated the first set with aggressive play, but world No. 8 Zheng fought back fiercely in the second. The 22-year-old Chinese star saved break points and delivered clutch serves to force a decider. 💥
The final set saw Anisimova regain control, securing her spot in Sunday’s final against German qualifier Tatjana Maria. At 37, Maria becomes the oldest WTA finalist since Serena Williams in 2020 after defeating Madison Keys. Will youth or experience prevail? 👀
