Madison Keys came from a set down to advance to the fourth round at Wimbledon as she beat compatriot Amanda Anisimova on Centre Court. 

Keys, a two-time Wimbledon quarter-finalist, needed one hour and 40 minutes to clinch a 3-6 6-2 6-3 victory and set up a date with Linda Noskova in the next round. 

Both players missed break opportunities in the third and fourth game, but Anisimova got herself in front by reeling off the final three games with the minimum of fuss. 

However, Keys responded emphatically. She won the first three games and ensured the match would go the distance after saving three game points late in the set. 

And the 26th seed got the break she needed in the fourth game of the decider, and sealed her progression when Anisimova returned her serve wide of the left baseline. 

"I think it's kind of crazy that it's like this kind of number," Keys said of reaching the second week of a major tournament for the 25th time of her career. 

"I think if you told me when I was first starting my career it would still be happening now. I think that would probably be the thing I'm proudest of.

"Just continuing to be competitive, continuing to be a part of, just someone that could go deep into a slam consistently.

"It's always something that I had as a goal when I was younger, to just be someone who could contend consistently.

"I think the reality is also, having been in this position before, it only gets harder now. It's like this is kind of the first hurdle. Then it seems like every round from now is like its own mini tournament."

Keys winning run continues after claiming 30th Wimbledon triumph

Having struggled for consistency this season, Keys has certainly found her groove on the grass courts in 2026, and she will be looking to stand tall at the All England Club. 

Keys has claimed the most grass court wins at WTA level main draws in 2026 (10). 

The American also became the 15th player in the Open Era to claim 30+ main draw wins at all four women's singles majors and is the first to achieve the feat since Victoria Azarenka, who did so at the French Open 2025.

She has now won her last eight games, which is her longest winning streak since claiming the titles in Adelaide and at the Australian Open and reaching the semi-finals at Indian Wells last season (16 consecutive wins).
