Iga Swiatek and Amanda Anisimova, both prominent young tennis stars, first faced each other in the Junior Fed Cup, where Swiatek emerged victorious. Despite Anisimova's early success, which included a junior US Open title and a notable run at the 2019 French Open, her career faced challenges, including a mental health break. Swiatek, having her own breakthrough, also advanced but in a different trajectory. Their first professional match will occur at Wimbledon, underscoring the long-awaited clash of their talents developed since their junior days.
Anisimova remarked on her early career saying, "I remember a lot of coaches were saying that she's going to be a big deal one day. They were right."
