Respected Russian coach Viktor Yanchuk now considers Mirra Andreeva a contender for victory at Grand Slam tournaments.
“She has adapted to the pace of top players. This is what she lacked before, and now she competes on equal terms. Mirra is not inferior in any aspect and is a real candidate to win any tournament, including Grand Slams. The next tournament in France will be at the end of May,” – said Yanchuk, as quoted by LiveResult.
Last year, the 17-year-old Russian player reached the semi-finals of the major tournament in Paris. This is currently her best result at this level of competition.
