Belarusian angry at Anisimova for ‘early’ celebration of point
Aryna Sabalenka has said she currently has “a hate relationship” with Wimbledon, and hit out at opponent Amanda Amisinova, after the world No 1 lost her third consecutive semi-final at the Championships on Thursday.
The top seed took time to compose herself after her 6-4, 4-6, 6-4 defeat, saying she wanted to avoid being the “crazy person” of Roland Garros, where Sabalenka criticised Coco Gauff following defeat to the American in the French Open final in June. Despite the delay, however, the Belarusian was still outspoken in her assessment of the match.
