Mirra Andreeva secured a commanding 6–3, 6–1 victory over Mayar Sherif in the first round of Wimbledon 2025, marking another confident step in her grass-court evolution.
After the confident victory over Sherif, 17-year-old Andreeva once again showed why she’s rapidly becoming one of the most intriguing names in women’s tennis. Composed, spirited, and already commanding a presence well beyond her years, she brushed aside pre-match nerves to deliver yet another polished display on the grass courts of the All England Club.
Andreeva’s progression over the last year has been nothing short of magnetic. There’s a sharpness to her movement, a sense of tactical maturity in her shot selection, and an emotional control that many players take years to cultivate. When asked about her growing reputation as a future Grand Slam champion and the role of her coach, former Wimbledon champion Conchita Martínez, Andreeva offered a smile laced with wit and youthful mischief.
Thiis was the question: “You’re being called one of the contenders for Grand Slam titles these days. Your coach Conchita Martinez won this title in 1994… what advice has she given you?”
And this was the reply.
“I don’t think I’m gonna tell you guys,” she said, grinning. “I’m gonna keep it to myself because this is very elite advice she gives me. Maybe after I retire I’m gonna tell you what Conchita Martinez told me in 2025 on my first round of Wimbledon. For now I’ll keep it to myself. If it doesn’t work, maybe you’re not gonna see her in my box anymore.”
The moment landed with laughter but also offered a subtle glimpse into the bond she shares with Martínez—one built on trust, discretion, and an unmistakable desire for long-term success. There’s something electric about athletes who play with intuition but speak with deliberate restraint. She knows there’s expectation on her shoulders, yet she wears it like an accessory rather than armor.
Wimbledon 2025 may still be unfolding, but if this was the prologue, Andreeva’s story is already captivating. And whether or not we ever hear that elusive bit of advice, her on-court performance says plenty on its own.
