Mirra Andreeva is a Grand Slam champion.
The 19-year-old proved too strong for qualifier Maja Chwalinska, defeating the Pole 6-3, 6-2 to claim her first major singles title on Saturday afternoon.
Andreeva received congratulatory messages from a number of iconic figures following her triumph in Paris, including from Maria Sharapova and Rod Laver.
How many Grand Slams does Mirra Andreeva win in her career? 🏆
Saturday’s triumph represented a landmark moment for the Russian teenager, who will surely go on to win many more Grand Slam titles.
However, it seems unlikely that Andreeva will add to her Grand Slam total this year.
Why Mirra Andreeva will not win another Grand Slam this year
In writing this piece, one does not intend to play down Mirra Andreeva’s achievements in Paris.
Andreeva has won a Grand Slam title – something very few tennis players achieve during their careers.
Stating that Andreeva will not win another Grand Slam title this year has little to do with the talent of Andreeva, nor her overall quality as a tennis player.
It has everything to do with her historical performances at Wimbledon and the US Open; and her performances on the event surfaces.
Simply put, Andreeva has not achieved exceptional results at Wimbledon and the US Open in the past.
The Russian has struggled particularly in New York, failing to advance past the third round in three attempts.
Andreeva has achieved slightly better results at Wimbledon. Last year, she reached the quarter-finals for the first time, beating Hailey Baptiste and Emma Navarro en route.
Mirra Andreeva’s Wimbledon record
- 2023: Fourth round [lost to Madison Keys]
- 2024: First round [lost to Brenda Fruhvirtová]
- 2025: Quarter-finals [lost to Belinda Bencic]
Prior to winning Roland Garros this year, Andreeva had already recorded quarter-final and semi-final appearances in the French capital.
Simply put, Andreeva had a history of success in Paris before winning Roland Garros.
Conversely, her record in London and New York does not lead one to believe that the Russian will triumph at Wimbledon or the US Open this year.
The opposing argument
Of course, Andreeva is a magnificently talented player and an individual who is fully capable of winning Wimbledon and the US Open this year.
The teenager will also be full of confidence after winning the Roland Garros title.
Andreeva has also proven that she is more than capable of performing well on grass and hard courts – particularly on the hard court surface.
Andreeva has won two WTA 1000 titles on hard courts: the 2025 Dubai Tennis Championships and 2025 Indian Wells.
With Andreeva’s hard-court proficiency noted, one would expect the Russian to perform better at the US Open than at Wimbledon.
Mirra Andreeva’s US Open record
- 2023: Second round [lost to Coco Gauff]
- 2024: Second round [lost to Ashlyn Krueger]
- 2025: Third round [lost to Taylor Townsend]
Andreeva’s past performances in New York are certainly concerning. However, if the Russian can re-capture her best hard-court form in the American city, she will be a leading contender for the title.
