Davis Cup Winner Dmitry Tursunov answered the question whether the Russian tennis player is capable Mirra Andreeva become the world’s first racket.
The 17-year-old Russian is ranked 24th in the WTA rankings.
— Listen, to take the first place in the ranking, sometimes it is enough to have a good season. However, it seems to me that from a physical point of view, it will be very difficult for Mirra to achieve the results of Iga Swiatek. Of course, one should never neglect the moment of motivation. Maybe she will stay awake at night, train and push her limits. Let’s say that girls like Coco Gauff, Paola Badosa, Lena Rybakina still have room for growth, they have not used their full potential.
It’s just that it will be difficult for Mirra at first from a purely physiological point of view, but if she can squeeze the most out of herself and the other girls get 80%, then it is clear that she will surpass them. By the way, Jessica Pegula is a good example of a player who does not have outstanding data, but has a stable game and a well-balanced psyche. Yes, she does not win Grand Slams, but she regularly reaches the quarterfinals and is ranked third in the world. I would consider Andreeva to be a tennis player of the same type. Perhaps she will be an improved version of Pegula, and the degree of improvement depends solely on Mirra herself, “Tursunov said according to RT.
