Świątek has a pretty simple blueprint here: make Anisimova move side to side. It’s particularly noticeable that she is hitting to Anisimova’s strength — her wondrous two-handed backhand — a lot. It’s kind of an alpha move to go to an opponent’s best shot that frequently, and Świątek isn’t just hitting back and forth.
She’s breaking the sideline with her backhands, while Anisimova’s tend to come in more straight. The angle Świątek creates pulls Anisimova wide, taking her off-balance and opening the deuce court, where Świątek can then unleash her forehand or her formidable inside-out backhand.
Anisimova is nervous, her serve is shot and it’s not going well. But Świątek is still visibly executing a plan and it’s working perfectly.
