Andreeva Roland Garros

Over time, Mirra Andreeva has gained maturity and sharpened her physical condition. The Russian player is becoming increasingly consistent and frequently advances deep into tournaments.

During a press conference after her victory against Daria Kasatkina, she discussed her progress: "It gives me a lot of confidence because I see that I’m capable of winning these matches, keeping the ball in play, starting from scratch, and even after running for so long, I regain my power and energy.

If I need to attack, I know I can do it. I know how to place and hit the ball well, not just keep it in play. I have to thank my fitness coach, who has helped me a lot in this regard.

I’ve improved physically—I’m much stronger than I was two years ago. In my opinion, I think differently now. I’m much more positive on the court, and that’s also one of my strengths.

I always try to fight for every point, no matter what. I think the two main changes are my physical and mental improvements.
