American tennis star Amanda Anisimova (25) directly refuted rumors regarding body-shaming and the use of diet drugs.
The UK's "The Sun" reported on the 5th (Korean time), "Anisimova strongly denied suspicions that she used Ozempic (a weight-loss treatment) amid her dramatic physical transformation, delivering a sharp rebuke to cyberbullies."
According to the outlet, Anisimova, who has over 520,000 followers, recently posted photos on Instagram showcasing her significantly changed appearance. When some netizens raised suspicions that she had received diet injections, Anisimova expressed her displeasure in an Instagram Story, stating, "To all the health experts and body critics residing in my comment section: I do not use Ozempic," and adding, "Please leave me alone and remove my story from your weird posts." The post has since been deleted.


This is not the first time Anisimova has expressed fatigue with public scrutiny. In the past, she received an excessive cyberbullying comment from a netizen stating, "You have the worst-looking physique in history for someone with declining athletic ability. Your shoulders are narrow and your breasts are too big."
Ultimately, following the 2023 Madrid Open, she appealed, saying, "I simply cannot understand people who evaluate my body every day. I don't know why they obsess so excessively over other people's bodies," and temporarily suspended her tour.
After returning to the court following a break, she shared her feelings, stating, "The few days spent at home with family and friends were truly very helpful."
Anisimova first gained prominence by winning the 2017 US Open Junior Singles title. She claimed her first WTA title at the 2019 Bogota Open and reached the semifinals of the French Open that same year. After successfully returning to the court following her break, she swept the titles at the 2025 Doha and Beijing WTA 1000 tournaments and is enjoying a second prime by reaching the finals of Wimbledon and the US Open last year. She currently holds the No. 11 world ranking, with her career-high ranking being No. 3, achieved in January this year.
