For tennis world No. 1 Iga Swiatek, winning Wimbledon wasn’t just about the trophy — it was also about the towels.

After delivering a ruthless 6-0, 6-0 demolition of Amanda Anisimova in the women’s singles final, Swiatek completed her post-match press duties with the same poise that defined her fortnight run. But she couldn’t hide her joy as she held up a now-iconic white towel emblazoned with green letters: “Property of Iga Swiatek, Wimbledon Champion.”

“This one’s for keeps,” Wimbledon posted on X (formerly Twitter), capturing the smiling Polish champion.

While most champions leave with silverware, Swiatek also leaves with a laundry list of souvenirs. Throughout the tournament, fans online joked about Swiatek’s apparent obsession with official Wimbledon towels, often catching her on broadcast footage stuffing handfuls into her bag after every match.

“It’s a topic no one ever talks about, but tennis players love their towels,” Swiatek quipped earlier in the tournament, after her opening-round win.

That love turned into a running joke, as clips of Swiatek's towel hauls circulated online with captions dubbing her the “Wimbledon towel thief.” The All England Club, in turn, embraced the humor, cheekily handing her a personalized keepsake after her historic win.

But humor aside, Swiatek's dominant performance was no joke. Her final scoreline — a rare "double bagel" — marked one of the most emphatic victories in Wimbledon finals history. It underscored her status as the current queen of the court and perhaps, unofficially, queen of the towels too.
