Mirra
Andreeva will participate in the upcoming season of Break Point.
The
16-year-old tennis player has had an explosive 2023, starting at the Australian
Open Junior where she reached the final but lost to her compatriot Alina
Korneeva. Both players also teamed up in the doubles draw, reaching the
semifinals.
In April,
Andreeva claimed the title at the ITF Switzerland 01A and ITF Switzerland 02A.
Her outstanding performance earned her a wild card entry into the Madrid Open,
where she showed she was ready to compete on the WTA tour. She reached the
round of 16, defeating Leylah Fernandez, Beatriz Haddad Maia (13th seed), and
Magda Linette (17th seed) along the way, before falling in the round of 16 to
Aryna Sabalenka, who went on to win the tournament.
She also
had a great showing at the 2023 French Open, overcoming the qualifying rounds
(including a victory against the top seed Maria Camila Osorio) and advancing to
the third round with wins over Alison Riske and Diane Parry. Andreeva lost to
Coco Gauff in the third round in a three-set match.
The young
star has been confirmed as one of the featured players for the second season of
the Netflix documentary Break Point, where they will follow the tennis players
during the major tournaments of the tour in 2023.
“We started
to work together in Paris. I like the attention they're giving me. They just
follow me, they don't ask me any questions. I just do my thing and they're just
around. They're nice people. So far!"
Andreeva is
currently competing in the Wimbledon qualifying rounds, where she has already
advanced past the first round with a victory over Spanish player Rosa Vicens
Mas. She will now face Chloe Paquet in the second round of qualifying. If she
wins, she will proceed to the final match against the winner of the match
between Carole Monnet and Tamara Korpatsch (19th seed).
