Mirra Andreeva’s 25 Grand Slam Dream
The 16 years old Mirra told the secret of achieving her dream of ’25 Grand Slams’ is to not be a ‘diva’ at a press conference after Ronald Garros’ game against Coco Gauff.
The player has also mentioned that she currently wants to win match by match without losing or missing any games.
She faced world No. 6 and 2016 runner-up Gauff at Roland Garros, and if she keeps playing like this, she has no reason to stop winning.
‘The dream… well I know Novak Djokovic won 22 Grand Slams, so I want to go until 25!
Additionally, it’s hard to avoid comparisons with her opponent. However, Mirra says that she isn’t successful yet; she hasn’t won tournaments, but she will play Ronald Garros with all her might.
Furthermore, Gauff and Andreeva have trained with each other before. The player also mentioned that she has a school and has been neglecting schoolwork due to tennis.
