Former world number two among juniors Anastasia Pivovarova believes that many tennis players are afraid of the Russian Mirra Andreeva because of his brilliant performance.
On Wednesday, 16-year-old Andreeva defeated world number six Ons Jabeur in straight sets in the second round of the Australian Open – 6:0, 6:2.
— Many tennis players are afraid of Mirra Andreeva because they know what she is capable of, how brilliant her tennis is, what a fearless girl she is and how she achieves her goal. When you play against such opponents, you cannot play your best tennis out of fear.
I’m delighted to see how wise and experienced Mirra is, despite her age: how she gives interviews, what a bright personality she is. Tennis really needs such athletes. They attract attention and make the sport interesting.
Mirra deserves all the accolades. She’s a great girl and she’s achieving fantastic results at just 16 years old. For now, such attention does not discourage her, but only motivates her to do more. We will support him and wait for new records. I am sure that Mirra will not stop at such results, but will always go further to conquer the top of the ranking,” Pivovarova said, as quoted by Gazeta.Ru.
In the third round of the Australian Open, the Russian tennis player will meet with the representative of France, Diane Parry.
