Andreeva advances in Madrid ⏩ 16-year-old Mirra Andreeva comes back from a set down to defeat Linda Noskova 4-6, 6-3, 6-3. #MMOpen
Hidden away on Court Eight, Mirra Andreeva continued her love affair with the Madrid Open surging into the third round with a three set win over Linda Noskova.
The 16-year-old reached the Last 16 last year and despite recently having injury issues and also having to endure a coaching change, she has looked superb so far this week after disappointing in Rouen last week.
Losing the first set narrowly 6-4, she won the next two 6-3 to move through. It was locked in at 4-3 down after losing her serve and this proved vital as she went on to lose the opener. The second was a lot better and she should’ve won it a lot easier surging to 5-1 up. But she got through it with no resolve from Noskova. She had to survive some adversity in the final set going 3-1 up but it was pegged back to 3-3. But she won three games on the spin for the win. Marketa Vondrousova or Shelby Rogers await.

- A lot of top players with injuries now. Could be a coincidence. Still we have a lot of big tournaments in 4/5 months.
AceOfBase06-05-2024 - Iga never gets an easy draw in any tournament she plays. So that statement is far from the truth. Sabalenka has difficulty because all she wants to do is stand up and serve. She is not a tennis player. If she gets the opponents Iga have, she would be ousted earlier.crissy06-05-2024
