Anisimova’s quick rise to fame

Anisimova enjoyed a stunning junior career before debuting on a much bigger stage, the 2019 French Open.

She reached her first Grand Slam semi-final at Roland Garros, securing a career-high ranking of No. 21 when she was just 18.

But tragedy has struck months earlier when Anisimova’s father and former coach Konstantin died suddenly of a heart attack, aged just 52.

His death occurred just days before the US Open, causing Anisimova to pull out of the competition.

“It was the worst thing that ever happened to me,” Anisimova told The New York Post of her dad’s death at the time.
