“I hope Erika and Mirra will rattle the whole tennis world” – the first coach of the Andreev sisters

Marina Pavlova, the first coach of the sisters Erica and Mirra Andreev, hopes that tennis players will become known all over the world, and their progress is already noticeable.

– They should not be compared with other tennis families. Yes, there were the great Williams sisters, Safina’s brother and sister. Erica and Mirra write their own story, go their own way. I hope the Andreeva sisters will also thunder throughout the tennis world.

Erica is now in the shadow of her sister, but she is also a talented tennis player with great potential. She just lacks self-confidence. She needs to do everything perfectly, and if there are any failures, she gets upset. Erica should be given time to adapt in the adult tour – and everything will be fine.

The Andreevs train in France, at the same academy where Daniil Medvedev works. Everything is set up there, there are two coaches who travel with them to tournaments. Their progress is already noticeable,” Pavlova told Metaratings.ru.

16-year-old Mirra Andreeva reached the Roland Garros until the third round, where she lost to the sixth racket of the world, American Corey Gauff. She became the first tennis player under 17 since 2009 to reach the third round of the French Open.
