Russian tennis player and Olympic silver medalist.

Last updated

Mirra Aleksandrovna Andreeva is a Russian professional tennis player born on 29 April 2007. She has been ranked as high as world No. 5 in singles and No. 12 in doubles. Andreeva has won six WTA Tour singles titles, including the 2026 French Open, and earned a silver medal in women's doubles at the 2024 Paris Olympics.

Early life

Mirra Andreeva came into the world in 2007 in the Russian city of Krasnoyarsk, born to Raisa and Alexander Andreev. Her older sister, Erika, was the first to take up tennis after their parents weighed it against volleyball.

Mirra herself started playing at six, learning at the Krasnoyarsk Tennis Hall club under Marina Pavlova. Seeking stronger training, the family relocated to Sochi, where Kirill Kryukov coached both sisters. They later honed their skills at Moscow's J-Pro Tennis Academy.

Career

Andreeva reached world No. 1 in the junior rankings on 29 May 2023. She was a finalist at the 2023 Australian Open girls' singles, losing to Alina Korneeva in a three-set match lasting 3 hours and 18 minutes. In April 2023, she became the only player in ITF World Tennis Tour history to win multiple W60-level or above titles before turning 16. Her WTA Tour main-draw debut came at the Jasmin Open via wildcard, where she lost to Anastasia Potapova in three sets.

At age 15 and ranked No. 194, she received a wildcard into the WTA 1000 Madrid Open, defeating Leylah Fernandez to become the third youngest player to win a main-draw match at that level. She then beat No. 14 Beatriz Haddad Maia for her first top-20 win, and on her 16th birthday defeated No. 19 Magda Linette, before losing to Aryna Sabalenka in the last 16; her ranking rose to No. 146. At the French Open, she qualified for her first Grand Slam main draw, recorded her first major win over Alison Riske-Amritraj, then defeated Diane Parry to reach the third round, becoming the seventh player in 30 years to do so before turning 17.

She lost to Coco Gauff in three sets, and her ranking rose to No. 101. At Wimbledon, she qualified and beat Wang Xiyu in the first round, advanced when Barbora Krejčíková retired injured, then defeated Anastasia Potapova to become the youngest player to reach the fourth round since Coco Gauff in 2019. She lost to Madison Keys in three sets, and her ranking rose to No. 64.
