US Open 2025: Iga Swiatek has heated exchange with reporter after loss

Polish tennis sensation Iga Swiatek suffered a disappointing defeat at the hands of American Amanda Anisimova in the quarterfinals of the U.S. Open. Swiatek, who had a stellar season with a Wimbledon title and a semifinal appearance at the Australian Open, was unable to secure a second U.S. Open title.

Despite her loss, Swiatek refused to make excuses for her performance and shut down a reporter who insinuated that she needed a mental break. The tense exchange highlighted Swiatek’s competitive spirit and frustration with her early exit from the tournament.

Anisimova’s victory over Swiatek sets up a semifinal clash with Naomi Osaka, as she continues her impressive run at the U.S. Open. The young American’s powerful performance on the court proved to be too much for Swiatek to handle, leading to her elimination from the competition.
