BEIJING. Andreescu explains how she analyzes her matches with coach Sylvain Bruneau

At 19 years of age, Bianca Andreescu is already close to the very top of the rankings. The world no.6 has won 3 top events in 2019 after triumphing in Indian Wells, Toronto and at the US Open. Bianca achieved all of this by being a perfectionist and with the big help of a great coaching team.

Andreescu and her coach Sylvain Bruneau

Bianca confessed to being worried about playing Elise Mertens in Beijing because she had a tight 3-sets win against her during the recent US Open. Eventually, everything went well in China and Andreescu won the contest in straight sets after a tense tiebreak.

During the press conference that followed her victory against the Belgian, Bianca was asked if she made any significant adjustments comparing to her game-play in New York.

Bianca commented:

“I went over the match with my coach the other night. We actually watched the match together, some parts of it. That’s the first time I did that with my coach actually. I think I’m going to continue doing that. It’s nice to get both of our perspectives on the match, not just right after playing, but a couple of weeks after. I think it’s very refreshing.”

Then Bianca added:

“I always watch it on my own. He usually does his own thing as well. The next morning we’ll talk about it.

Last night we sat together and watched it. I think that’s a really effective tool because we can both talk about the match like I said, not only after playing but a couple of weeks after. I think you see different things.”
