Mirra Andreeva finally has her first win at the Rome Open easing past Emiliana Arango 6-2, 6-4 and will now face Linda Noskova in the third round at the Foro Italico.
Andreeva now is the second youngest player to register 18 wins in WTA 1000 events in a single season older only than Martina Hingis as she emulates her once more.
Arango though broke Andreeva twice in the second set but Andreeva managed to figure it out. She finally got over the line in 89 minutes but it was Andreeva's first main draw win in Rome.
She'll play Linda Noskova in a third round match on Sunday. Noskova was a 6-4, 6-4 winner over Sonay Kartal. Andreeva's flat backhand was the true measure as she was able to dominate with that. She converted 6/10 break points while Arango was on 3/9.
Only Aryna Sabalenka has more wins in WTA 1000's than Andreeva this year. Elsewhere Zheng Qinwen figured out the Olga Danilovic puzzle sealing a 6-1, 6-4 win. Magdalena Frech saw off Victoria Azarenka 7-5, 6-4. While Clara Tausen eased past Katie Volynets who retired in the second set.
Emma Raducanu is a set up on Jil Teichmann too while Amanda Anisimova is clawing to stay in her clash with Veronika Kudermetova. But the now 18-year-old Andreeva is through successfully.

- One step by another step -- WTA continues to 'lose the plot'. Too many hi-tech microphones being installed at most venues!!! Remove them (especially those along the hallways, sidewalks, and pathways throughout the venues. Not to mention (most of all) remove the mic's from the Players/Coaches Box.

- Don't you just love this young lady!? We fans often expect athletes to be supermen and superwomen, often forgetting that they WILL GET TIRED! I love Alex's perspective. Tiredness for an athlete should never be viewed as a negative, especially if you are healthy, taking care of your body and mental health and putting in the work. What a mature perspective. Good for you, Alex!Rapunzel05-11-2026
- Jess is absolutely correct! But the disrespect is a trait I have noticed in most of the Russian players. Mirra is good but very immature and lacks humility. Conceivable needs to get a handle on that!Rapunzel05-11-2026
- Having spent weeks and weeks through the years on tour, I can say with confidence that Conchita was (is) one of the very few who realize the surprising level of maturity (and sometimes lack of) which Mirra seems to have developed in such a demanding adult world of Pro-Tennis. While at the same time reminding herself (Conchita, that is) that Mirra is still young and developing mentally and physically. The general public may forget at times, or not at all realize, these modern era young athletes do not have a 'normal' Youth. It's a major sacrifice, among countless sacrifices, these athletes must make. People who blow-off that fact are ignorant and unfair when they blurt out, "They choose fame so they have to put up with the intrusions on their lives". No, they do not.mandoist05-11-2026
- Okay... someone with a camera was EAVESDROPPING on a private conversation. Shouldn't that be the point of discussion here? Regardless of the sensationalist crap by media, Pegula (and anyone) has a right to an opinion. There used to be an expectation that private conversations were respected, regardless of 'stardom' and whatever other defensive excuses media tries to shove in our faces. Boo-hoo if feelings are hurt. BTW: Having been employed at various tourney venues, etc., I can't tell you how nasty and offensive players can be when discussing their opponents and colleagues... in "private". Well, I could, but won't. I also challenge anyone to deny what Jessica said is false.mandoist05-11-2026
