- Amanda Anisimova, the 2025 U.S. Open runner-up, lost to Austria’s Anastasia Potapova 6-2, 7-5 in the third round.
- Potapova, ranked 25th, converted six of eight break points and saved 13 of 16 against the 10th-ranked Anisimova.
- The defeat will drop Anisimova out of the world’s top 10, and she is the third top-10 player eliminated in New York this year.
Amanda Anisimova’s return to the U.S. Open ended in the third round when Anastasia Potapova defeated her 6-2, 7-5 in one hour and 39 minutes.
Potapova, the world No. 25, converted six of her eight break opportunities and saved 13 of the 16 break points she faced. Anisimova, ranked 10th, managed only three service breaks.
Anisimova reached the U.S. Open final in 2025, losing to Aryna Sabalenka 6-3, 7-6(3). It was her second Grand Slam final defeat that year, after Iga Swiatek beat her 6-0, 6-0 in the Wimbledon final. The latest loss will move Anisimova out of the top 10, which she entered more than a year ago after that Wimbledon final.
She is the third top-10 player eliminated in New York this year, after Karolina Muchova, ranked seventh, and Elina Svitolina, ranked ninth.
