“It’s OK that sometimes something doesn’t work or go your way” – New year, new Andreeva as talented teenager enters 2026 with fresh mindset
After a quiet end to the 2025 season, the young star is reset, refocused, and ready to challenge the very best once again. Big goals, big stages, and a new chapter ahead for one of tennis’ brightest talents 💪🔥
Mirra Andreeva makes a winning debut at the Adelaide International, cruising past lucky loser Marie Bouzkova 6-3, 6-1. After a slow opening, she completely took control—winning 11 of the last 13 games to book her spot in the next round 💪✨
Mirra Andreeva admitted the dominant victory meant a lot for her, giving her belief heading into the season. She also reflected honestly on the pressure she put on herself, understanding now that maintaining the same level all year isn’t always possible. A mature mindset and a strong start in Adelaide 💪✨
After an incredible start to 2025, with two WTA 1000 titles and two Grand Slam quarter-finals, the Russian star’s form dipped as the season went on. Her Asian swing didn’t go as planned, and she narrowly missed out on qualifying for her first WTA Finals—leaving a bittersweet feeling.“We’re human, so it’s OK when things don’t go our way,” she said. “Last year was all new to me, and I was learning how to accept it and move on. But it was a great experience—to taste victory and also face setbacks. It taught me a lot.”
During the off-season, Andreeva took time to sit down with her psychologist to talk about handling pressure and elevating her game. Progress isn’t instant, but she’s focused on taking the right steps forward and growing stronger on and off the court.I can also make a short, punchy version perfect for a Facebook post with hashtags if you want it to really catch fans’ attention.
