Switch was thrown off from US Open. Polka was given for public humiliation of the opponent

The American repayed the debt.

One of the best tennis players of the present yoke of the shelter with a rink was held by rivals on US Open and dreamed of the title. The American Amanda Anisimova was supposed to be easy prey for Polka, because a couple of months ago the yoke humiliated her in the final of Wimbledon – 6: 0, 6: 0.

However, this time everything did not go according to the plan of the Polish tennis player, who served the punishment for violation of anti -doping rules. For swords, this defeat has become one of the most painful in the season, but with disgrace will have to come to terms. The WTA tours still be able to repulse fraudsters.

The path of shitsuits up to the quarterfinals

Swucks have traditionally approached the US Open in the status of a favorite. The triumph on Wimbledon and the victory on the “thousand -up” in Cincinnati allowed her fans with optimism to look at the near future. The first matches left no doubt that Iga was set up to compete for the title. At first, she defeated the Colombian Emilian Arango (6: 1, 6: 2), and then encountered difficulties in the match with Suzan Lamens from the Netherlands. After the confident first set (6: 1), she gave the second (4: 6), but gathered and in the decisive party brought the case to victory – 6: 4. In the third round, her rival was Russian Anna Kalinskaya. The yoke won in two parties – 7: 6 (7: 2), 6: 4, although here the struggle was tense. Kalinskaya actively went on the attack, but at key moments the experience and composure of the sluts affected.

But in the 1/8 finals of the shcretki showed tennis, which is expected from her: the match against Ekaterina Alexandrova turned into a formal destruction of her rival. Polka completely controlled the game, destroyed the Russian woman’s presentation and completed the meeting with a confident victory – 6: 3, 6: 1. At that time, it seemed that Iga entered the peak of form and was ready for decisive meetings.

Anisimova broke the move

Prior to this, the quarterfinals of Shventyk and Anisimov crossed only once-in the final of Wimbledon-2025. Then Polka literally dared an opponent from the court, winning 6: 0, 6: 0 in 58 minutes. That meeting gave rise to the opinion that Anisimova was mentally not ready to fight Iga. However, in New York, everything has changed.

The beginning of the match went according to a familiar scenario: the ships made a break and led 1: 0. But the reaction of the American turned out to be instant – the reverse break, and this immediately set the tone of the whole batch. Amanda stopped playing carefully and began to impose her style.

Anisimova confidently took the geims on her presentation, leaving ISE, the chances of the reception. Her strokes from the foregend were especially impressive: several times she fell directly into the corner of the court without a chance for an opponent. Shevynets kept due to stability, but sometimes turned out to be in the role of catching up.

The key moment occurred with a score of 5: 4 in favor of Anisimova. The American turned on the maximum aggression, forced the yoke to make a mistake on the back line and earned setball. Polka lost the reception, and the party ended in favor of Anisimova – 6: 4.

Answer for Wimbledon

At the beginning of the second batch of Schwhentki, she tried to change the course of the match. She acted more actively, more often went forward and even led 2-0, making an early break. This segment looked like a chance at a fracture – the fans already expected the third set.

But Anisimova again showed character. In the fourth game, she imposed a protracted struggle, and when the ball from the grid changed the trajectory, she could not cope – 2: 2. From this moment, the American played more relaxed, and the moles, on the contrary, began to be nervous and more often mistaken on the first presentation.

With a score 3: 3, it was Anisimova who looked more confident. She was almost not mistaken, added relics in the draws and in the eighth game she designed a decisive break – 5: 3. Shewentks tried to catch on, but immediately allowed a few inaccuracies, and Anisimova did not flinch.

The party final came quickly: the American completed the match with a powerful presentation – 6: 3. Thus, Anisimova took a revenge for defeat at Wimbledon and first in her career went to the semifinal of US Open.

Schwalks called the reason for the failure

After the meeting, the sluts admitted that her main problem was the presentation.

– I understood that with such a game and such a presentation I could not win. Amanda accepted very aggressively, and this was the key to her success. On the back line, I felt good, but the feed failed. This played a decisive role, – quotes the words of the ships Punto de Break.

When asked about whether their match on Wimbledon influenced the perception of the opponent, the yoke replied:

“I think everyone knows what Amanda is capable of.” Yes, she did not succeed in Wimbledon, but this does not mean that she will constantly make the same mistakes or experience the same feelings. I know that she is a good player and can show excellent tennis. Therefore, I was preparing for a difficult match. She won, so, I think this really did not play a role, ”said the sludge at a press conference.

Polka also commented on the topic of fatigue and mental burnout.

– Many people ask about a break, but, frankly, I do not think that now it is needed. The matches here were not too debilitating, – quotes the words of the punto de Break shit.

For the sluts, the defeat in the quarterfinals was a serious blow, because the day before she showed an excellent form and was considered one of the main applicants for the title. Nevertheless, Polka does not intend to focus on failure: plans to prepare for the Asian series of tournaments, where she will try to return confidence. But for Anisimova, this is a historical success. In the semifinals, US Open-2025 will play with Japanese Naomi Osaka, and New York is already preparing for a bright confrontation.

The tennis player who refused Russia was forced to pay. The decision has already been made

The tennis player who refused Russia was forced to pay. The decision has already been made

Elina Avanesyan received Armenian citizenship, but she still has to repay her debt to her native country.

Recently, changes of citizenship in Russian women’s tennis have been happening surprisingly often. This is despite the fact that in this sport athletes can easily compete at international competitions. However, tennis players, and to a greater extent female tennis players, still continue to abandon Russia, guided by different goals.

The case with Elina Avanesyan received a rather unexpected continuation. The athlete who left for Armenia must now pay the Russian Tennis Federation (RFF) for failure to fulfill the contract, and this could become an extremely interesting precedent.

Showed promise while representing Russia

This year, five of our tennis players changed their citizenship. The country’s former first racket Daria Kasatkina now represents Australia, and the athlete left with a scandal, forgetting to thank her homeland. In addition to her, Maria Timofeeva, Polina Kudermetova and Kamilla Rakhimova decided to compete for Uzbekistan, and Anastasia Potapova for Austria. The last transition was quite unexpected, because Potapova always declared her love for Russia and often visited the country.

Most of these transitions happened literally in recent weeks and months, so it is too early to draw conclusions about the productivity of the change of citizenship. But Kasatkina hardly won in sports terms. Now she occupies 37th place in the world rankings and, according to the feelings, has lost a lot not only in results, but also in the quality of the game itself.

The situation with Elina Avanesyan burst into the public sphere in August last year. First, she changed the flag in her profile on the WTA website to Armenian, and then the native of Pyatigorsk herself confirmed the fact of the transition. At that time, she was in 58th place in the world rankings and generally showed some promise. She made her debut in senior Grand Slam competitions in 2022, qualifying.

In 2023 and 2024, Elina performed well at Roland Garros, both times making it to the fourth round of the tournament. This was a bid for a breakthrough, or at least gradual progress. Avanesyan also won the ITF W100 series tournament in Wiesbaden in 2023, which is currently her main success in her career.

Will such compensation become a trend?

After moving to Armenia, her results dropped sharply. A year and a half later, Avanesyan is only 118th in the world rankings. This was partly due to health problems, but even without them, the girl’s career was clearly not going uphill. And now Elina has another problem. The Armenian representative was ordered to compensate the losses of the Russian Tennis Federation (RFF) in connection with the failure to fulfill the sports training agreement.

— The FTR received a decision from the National Center for Sports Arbitration (NCSA), which on December 9, 2025 considered the case between the FTR and Avanesyan regarding the FTR’s compensation for losses in connection with Avanesyan’s failure to fulfill the sports training agreement. The NCCA considered the dispute for several months and ruled in favor of the FTR. The tennis player will be obliged to reimburse the FTR for the amounts of losses established by the NCSA, compensation from tennis income provided for in the sports training agreement, and other costs of the FTR, the FTR statement says.

The size of the payments is not disclosed, but it is hardly an insignificant amount. However, it’s not just about finances. Avanesyan’s story may become a precedent when athletes fleeing the country will be required to pay money for changing citizenship.

Now, following the example of the FTR, our other federations can follow the example of the FTR, which will necessarily prescribe the conditions for its termination in the agreement. And this, of course, has its own logic. Of course, no one will prohibit athletes from leaving the country, but such a step will become more responsible. So paying compensation seems like a reasonable option and fair to both parties.

ATP number ten initially confirmed participation in Aus Open, then withdrew

24-year-old British tennis player Jack DraperThe national team, which ranks 10th in the ATP rankings, will not be able to play in the 2025 Australian Open.

This became known on December 26. Jack recorded a video message in which he stated that he will miss the Australian series completely:

“Unfortunately, my team and I have decided not to travel to Australia this year. This is a really difficult decision because the Australian Open is a Grand Slam event, one of the biggest tournaments in our sport.”

However, I had been suffering from a hand injury for a long time. I am in the final stages of my recovery and returning to the court so early for five-set matches does not seem like a wise decision for me and my tennis.

Of course, I have already experienced many failures. But this was the hardest and hardest I have ever experienced. I expect to be back racing and competing on the field in 2026. Thank you everyone for your support in 2025; This really means a lot to me. I hope to return to tour soon and compete at the highest level again,” Draper said.

Interestingly, Draper only announced that he would play at a major in Melbourne on the 24th of the same month.

Jack has been away from the Tour since late August, when he withdrew from his match against Zizou Bergs in the second round of the US Open, ending his season early.
