That same year, she won her first WTA title at the Copa Colsanitas in Bogotá. She continued to build her resume with titles at the Melbourne Summer Set 2 in 2022 and the Qatar TotalEnergies Open in 2024, her first WTA 1000 title. She has consistently worked to refine her game and believes improvement is ongoing. “There’s always room to improve every part of my game,” Amanda said. “We’re always working on things like my serve and movement, and trying to get better even at my strengths.” The conditions in Miami present a different kind of test, especially with the heat and humidity. Anisimova approaches those challenges with small adjustments that often go unnoticed. “Putting ice in my drinks and pouring water over my towels helps on really hot days,” she said.
