With Mirra Andreeva, it seems that we have normalized something as impressive as a 17-year-old girl being settled among the top 20 in the world. The potential of the young Russian player is infinite, and everything indicates that she is destined for very important things. Her evolution since hiring Conchita Martínez is evident, and she openly spoke about it at the WTA 500 Brisbane 2025.

Tender and sweet off the court, wild within it. That's Mirra Andreeva, a girl who feels comfortable in a world of competitive beasts. Established as one of the great precocious talents of recent times, the Russian has been playing professionally on a regular basis for just a year and a half, a period that has helped her reach the top 15, become a Grand Slam semifinalist, hold a WTA title, and win a silver Olympic medal in doubles.

However, Andreeva's great move may have been hiring Conchita Martínez. The Spanish coach immediately connected with her and has found the keys to make her progress much more pronounced, consistent, and faster than one might expect. This is confirmed by Mirra herself in the press conference of the WTA 500 Brisbane 2025, where she is already in the semifinals and will now challenge Sabalenka, knowing what it takes to defeat the Belarusian, something she did last year at Roland Garros.

"I would say that I have improved a lot in all aspects of my game. I feel I hit my shots with more strength and have greater physical power. I am very satisfied with the way I am playing, and I believe it is because we did a great job in the preseason," said Andreeva, who feels ready to achieve significant success. "For months now, I have seen myself ready to win important matches, and now even more so. I think it is all due to a great improvement in the mental aspect," she asserts.

It would be logical for a girl her age to experience some vertigo, but she seems to have freed herself from such feelings after having experienced them, in small doses, the past year. "I remember some matches where I felt the pressure, got nervous, and negative thoughts inundated my mind. Against Iga in Cincinnati, in the Roland Garros semifinals, the Australian Open round of 16, and the Ningbo tournament final," declares a young woman who won the junior tournament in Melbourne two years ago.

"I would say that, sometimes, I am still very much a child, and I can get angry if someone tells me something I don't like. My reaction is to do something that annoys that person. That's why I would say it is difficult to work with me, but we have learned to laugh at myself and those reactions. Conchita is doing very well with me," she states before delving into how much the Spanish coach is contributing to both her game and her personality, being vital for this growth.

An experienced woman like Conchita Martínez is the ideal catalyst to shape a raw diamond like Mirra Andreeva. "She brought a lot of optimism to my game, made me realize that I couldn't have such a negative mindset on the court. I think I accept defeats much better since I have been with her and try to learn from all of them. She has also diversified my tennis, so she is helping me a lot to become better," she affirmed.
