Roland-Garros: Andreeva books spot in second round

Semi-finalist in 2024, Mirra Andreeva had a few shaky moments this Tuesday during her opening match at Roland-Garros.

The Russian, seeded No. 6, ultimately won in straight sets (6-4, 6-3) against Spain’s Cristina Bucsa, securing her spot in the second round of Roland-Garros.

Trailing 3-0 in the first set, Mirra Andreeva managed to stay composed and gradually worked her way back into the match, eventually taking control over her opponent, ranked 37th in the WTA rankings.

“She played really well at the start of the match. I just had to keep playing my game because I felt I was playing well despite the score being against me. Little by little I found my rhythm and it became easier for me to be aggressive during rallies,” the Russian explained to Alex Corretja.

Mirra Andreeva (18 years and 26 days) is now the youngest player to win a Women’s Singles match at Roland Garros as a WTA top 10 player since Serena Williams (17 years and 240 days) in 1999

Andreeva, ranked No 6, will face the winner of the match between Dutchwoman Suzan Lamens and American Ashlyn Krueger next.
