US Open Final Showdown: Sabalenka Faces Anisimova in Highly Anticipated Clash – How to Watch Live

The 2025 US Open women’s final is set for a thrilling clash between World No. 1 and defending champion Aryna Sabalenka and American star Amanda Anisimova. Both are powerful baseline hitters, bringing intensity to Arthur Ashe Stadium.

Sabalenka, already a three-time Grand Slam winner, is aiming to become the first woman since Serena Williams to win back-to-back US Open titles. She stormed through the draw without losing a set until her tough semifinal against Jessica Pegula.

Anisimova, however, has history on her side. She leads their head-to-head 6–3, including a key Wimbledon semifinal victory this year. Although she suffered a painful 6-0, 6-0 defeat in the Wimbledon final, the 23-year-old American has bounced back with resilience.

Her numbers in New York back that up. Anisimova has won 43.3 per cent of her return games—18 per cent more than Sabalenka—while converting 38.6 per cent of first returns and a dominant 60.8 per cent of second returns. She has struck 156 winners and kept errors low with just 2.3 double faults per match.

For Sabalenka, this final is about proving her mental strength after earlier setbacks in 2025. For Anisimova, it’s about completing her comeback and showing she can thrive on the biggest stage.

The match promises a high-stakes battle between two fearless contenders determined to lift the trophy in Queens.
