Vesninas Insights on Mirra Andreyevas Prospects at Roland Garros 2025

The Olympic champion in women’s doubles from 2016, Russian tennis player **[Elena Vesnina](https://www.5sports.ru/tags/176-elena-vesnina/)**, shared her expectations for **Mirra Andreyeva’s** performance at the 2025 French Open.

“Mirra Andreyeva will likely be under the closest scrutiny. The girl has already claimed two WTA 1000 titles this year, winning in both Dubai and Indian Wells, so naturally, all eyes will be on her. Plus, last year she reached the semifinals here. This time, Mirra will need to defend a significant number of points at Roland Garros, which is a delicate psychological factor. However, she’s really smart and I hope she’ll be in great physical shape and ready to perform well.

I believe we can already consider Mirra a favorite—she definitely deserves that recognition. She has made such great strides in her game, and her progress is like watching a graph where the dollar drops and the ruble rises; everything is going up for her right now, improving with each tournament. She also has a formidable competitor in Coco Gauff, who has beaten her four times already. But, you know, that’s part of the sport, part of developing and growing. You have to learn how to compete against those rivals. Sooner or later, she will undoubtedly find a way to beat her. Yet, this process requires time, as sometimes you find yourself uncomfortable playing against certain opponents,” Vesnina told Artem Taimanov from «Championat.»
