Andreeva’s first coach: “The third round of Roland Garros for a 16-year-old girl is very cool”
Marina Pavlova, the first coach of the Russian tennis player Mirra Andreeva, believes that after a successful performance at Roland Garros, the athlete should focus on the adult tour.
On Saturday, 16-year-old Andreeva lost to the sixth racket of the world American Cory Gauff in the third round match of the French Open – 7:6 (7:5), 1:6, 1:6.
— Mirra had a good tournament, beat two rivals from the top 100 and played almost on an equal footing with the sixth racket of the world. Yes, Gauff lost, but it seems to me that she simply did not have enough experience in such matches. The third round of Roland Garros for a 16-year-old girl is very cool.
It seems to me that Mirra should now concentrate on the adult tour. Of course, because of her age, she has a limitation, she will have to play junior tournaments. But her level of play already allows her to play on an equal footing with tennis players from the top 100. She wants to go to Wimbledon now. Mirra has never played on grass yet, but her aggressive play should be effective on fast courts as well.
Its potential is already visible. She is a versatile player, capable of becoming a big star. Now for her everything is happening for the first time. She has nothing to prove, no titles. It’s probably not worth talking about pressure in such a situation. She boldly goes forward, gets new emotions,” Pavlova told Metaratings.ru.
Mirra Andreeva became the first tennis player under 17 since 2009 to reach the third round of the French Open.

The world’s first racket Arina Sabalenko He responded to Ukraine’s accusations at the press conference Alexandra Oleynikova In support of Belarusian dictator Alexander Lukoshenko:
– Ukrainian tennis player Alexandra Oleynikova mentioned you and several Russian players, saying that you support their governments, and called for a ban on the participation of Russian and top Russian players. I just wanted to give you a chance to answer this.
– Actually, I’ve talked about this a lot before. Of course I want peace and if I could change something I would definitely do it. Other than that, I don’t have anything else to say.
– As a follow-up to the previous question, I respect your wish not to comment on politics, but do you consider Oleynikova’s comments yesterday, in which she personally mentioned you, as unfair? Do you want politics to stay out of tennis?
– Look, I’m here for tennis. This is a tennis event and I’ve said enough in the past and I don’t want to talk politics here.

“Andreeva walked through Sakkari very confidently, almost didn’t notice her at all” – Vesnina
Olympic champion Elena Vesnina assessed the form of Russian Mirra Andreeva at the Australian Open.
World number seven Mirra Andreeva beat Greek Maria Sakkari in the second round of the Australian Open with a score of 6:0, 6:4.
“Mirra walked through Sakkari very confidently and almost didn’t notice her at all. She had some of her best form last year when she won Indian Wells and Dubai.
Now we see Mirra, who has grown up and continues to study. But it’s too early to say that this is her best form. She needs to build her game, improve and set herself the goal of going as far as possible in the Grand Slam tournament, and maybe even winning it,” Vesnina was quoted as saying by Soviet Sport.
In the third round, the Russian will play with the 77th racket of the world, Elena Gabriela Ruze from Romania.
