She’s funny, she’s confident, she can be a real tennis star!
Mirra Andreeva, just turned 16, is rocking the French Open in Paris! There she is after the 6:1, 6:2 against the French Diane Parry (20) in the 3rd round. And that at her first Grand Slam tournament ever. “Actually, I wanted to play here with the juniors, but then I managed to qualify,” she beams.
Just a few weeks ago, the Russian made her debut on the WTA tour in Madrid, where she made it straight into the round of 16, where she lost to world number two Aryna Sabalenka (25 / Belarus). Here in Paris she started the next triumphal march: Five games including qualification, without giving up a set.
