Amanda Anisimova is currently spending time in Los Angeles, California, sharing photos from her vacation. The tennis star recently posted images of herself and her friend, Francesca, relaxing in a turquoise pool surrounded by greenery.
This downtime follows a difficult 2026 season for the 25-year-old, who officially ended her competition year on September 28, 2026. Her season was hampered by a recurring injury that first surfaced during the Miami Open in March. The physical setback forced her to withdraw from major events, including tournaments in Charleston, Madrid, and Rome, before she managed a return for the French Open in late May. She returned to compete in the prestigious clay-court tournament at the French Open in late May 2026. On September 28, 2026, she announced that she was cutting her year short in order to fully heal, reset, and make her return in the 2027 season.
After competing at the 2026 US Open—where she reached the third round before eventually withdrawing from the Singapore and China Opens—Anisimova decided to cut her year short. She stated that the goal is to focus on healing and resetting for a return in the 2027 season. Her final match of the year was a contest against Anastasia Potapova at the US Open.

Reflecting on her career, Anisimova shared that she still experiences flashes of her 2025 US Open performance against Aryna Sabalenka, which remains the closest she has come to a Grand Slam title. While she tries to move past those memories, the contrast between her 2025 form and her 2026 performance is stark; after a year of career-best tennis, she has seen her ranking shift from World No. 4 to World No. 18 amid struggles with consistency.
