Amanda Anisimova's journey at the 2025 US Open has been a major highlight after securing a place in the quarterfinals.

This is her best finish at the tournament, surpassing her previous record of reaching the third round in 2020.

In her fourth-round match, Anisimova delivered a dominant performance, crushing Beatriz Haddad Maia 6-0, 6-3.

Haddad Maia scored just 10 points in the opening set, where she was broken twice and Anisimova hit 77% of her first serves. Combine all of that and the result was a New York Bagel.

The second set was even more competitive, as Anisimova was challenged to build on her career-best US Open performance.

In this fantastic match, she won 15 of the first 17 points and closed out the first set unanswered.

Statistics show she won 81% of her service points and 68% of her return points.

“It’s the Round of 16, and there are going to be nerves, especially against Bia who is such a tough opponent,’’ said Anisimova, who converted six of her 18 break-point chances.

“You have to stay really mentally strong.”

Following this victory, Amanda Anisimova will face a formidable opponent, Iga Swiatek, for a place in the semifinals.

This match is predicted to be a repeat of the 2025 Wimbledon final, heightening the tension and anticipation among fans.

The victory in this round also added $260,000 to her prize money, bringing her total prize pool at the 2025 US Open to $660,000.

Anisimova herself stated that the US Open is her favorite tournament to play, as she stated after her second-round victory over Maya Joint.

She hopes to continue her "deep run" in this tournament.

“Who would have thought we would be meeting again so soon,’’ Anisimova said.

“I’m just very excited and it’s going to be a great match, I hope, this time. But I’m feeling good and she is playing some great tennis. So I really hope that we put on a great performance.”
