Honored Russian tennis coach Viktor Yanchuk believes that Mirra Andreeva could become Russia’s top racket in a year, taking the title from Daria Kasatkina.
Kasatkina is ranked 13th in the world, while 17-year-old Andreeva is ranked 23rd.
— Kasatkina’s leadership among Russian tennis players is temporary. It is clear that among Russian women, Andreeva has the best prospects. Time is on her side. She is more interesting and diverse than others. In a year, she can become the first among Russians. I have no doubt that in the coming years, Diana Schneider and Mirra will be able to enter the top 10. Schneider will improve thanks to her powerful game and character. They will replace the generation led by Kasatkina, “Yanchuk told Soviet Sport.
Andreeva has won one trophy at WTA tournaments during her career, and together with Schneider, she became a silver medalist at the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris in doubles.
