Andreeva continues impressive Grand Slam form at Roland-Garros
Mirra Andreeva edged out Victoria Azarenka 6-3, 3-6, 7-5 on Thursday evening. She’ll play American Peyton Stearns in the next round
Russian Mirra Andreeva reached the third round of Roland-Garros by edging out Belarusian Victoria Azarenka, the No 19 seed, 6-3, 3-6, 7-5 at Roland-Garros in Paris on Thursday evening.
The 17-year-old has barely been on the WTA Tour for a year, and yet has some impressive results at the Grand Slam level. This is her second time making the Roland-Garros third round, having made the round of 16 last year at Wimbledon, and earlier this year at the Australian Open.
Andreeva, ranked No 38, will face American Peyton Stearns next.
Ahead of her victory, the 17-year-old Russian won against American Emina Bektas (6-2, 6-3).
Azarenka, ranked No 21, defeated Argentinian Nadia Podoroska (6-1, 6-0) in the previous round.
