    This isn’t nice viewing. The American having an absolute nightmare.

    Feel so sorry for the lass, but one positive is that Taco Don won't be able to crow about it. Mind you, he'll probably claim it was stolen and get his brain-dead supporters to storm the AELTC

    Totally one-sided. Could be only the 2nd (in open era) grand slam final double bagel.

    It's excruciating. First love/love final in the open era. As a spectacle, worse final ever. All done in less than an hour.

    Well that was weird and really hard to watch. Also feel for Swiatek who isn’t really getting the crowd reaction, as they’re all probably in total shock.

    Why would you feel sorry for her? She's utterly embarrassed herself. She was either very lucky to get this far or played some absolute ***** along the way.

    It just went wrong on the day, she performed well over the fortnight, knocked the No1 seed and favourite out in semi.

    It's not a BBC interview. Done by the club for all broadcasters to show

    She beat Sabalenka, the world number one.

    Crumbled today. It happens. And Swiatek’s game is horrendous for her. The speed and movement of Iga is too much for Amanda. Clare Balding called it at the start, and was shut down by McEnroe.

    The interview there, I nearly started crying myself.

    The men’s final should be a classic tomorrow though.

    I think they were referring to Wimbledon. They just said it's the first 6-0, 6-0 since 1911.

    Amanda played some cracking stuff the last 2 weeks , looks like the occasion got to her today . Tbf swiatek has been incredible and her semi final the other day, she was outstanding
