“We are waiting for the victories of Mirra Andreeva at the big helmet tournaments, it is possible for her” – Yanchuk

The honored coach of Russia Viktor Yanguk said that tennis player Mirra Andreev, after the victory at the WTA 1000 tournament in Indian -Wells, could compete for winning the “big helmets”.

On Sunday, 17 -year -old Andreeva beat the first racket of the world Arina Sobolenko from Belarus with a score of 2: 6, 6: 4, 6: 3 in the final of the Tournament in Indian -Wells and won the second thousand -row.

– Outstanding performance! This is the first most serious application, because in such a tournament great importance to overcome the most powerful in a row is a great thing. This confirms that Mirra and ambitions are large, and the character is stable, and a high -level game. Previously, she lacked a little development of the age, because she was superior physically and scored. She could not cope with the force of impacts of rivals. But now everything is in order, she has already grown up, became stronger, gained experience, and her ambitions increased clearly. Now she plays with everyone on equal terms, not embarrassed, showing her best qualities. She successfully combines a game understanding, making unexpected and interesting decisions on the court, because she is good as a player.

In many ways, this is from nature, not only from experience and training. She was given it. And the technique is good: in almost all techniques, she knows how to play. And since the summer it has been playing, and the SMESh is beating, and not bad. This is high skill. Now she holds the attacks of rivals and is not inferior to almost anything. This is her first big victory. We will now wait for her victories on a large helmet, because she can do it, ”the Soviet sport quotes Yanchuk.

In the WTA ranking, Andreeva moved from the 11th to the sixth line.
