It's been a few days since she lost that final at Indian Wells 2025, but Aryna Sabalenka continues to dedicate some beautiful and impressive words to Mirra Andreeva. The world number one, already focused on the Miami Open 2025, spoke at the Media Day about the importance of the team behind a tennis player, as well as making a bold prediction about the Russian rival.

Andreeva, a rival with great potential

"Without a doubt, she has improved her game, as the result shows. She moves well on the court, serves well, hits very well. She has touch and has matured a lot. She is very quick to get results and with the improvements in her game, and she is very young. I can't predict when she will win a Grand Slam or be number 1 in the world, but she definitely will," Sabalenka said to the media, as reported by Tennis Majors.

"I have been facing her since she was 15, 16, or 17 years old, but I am already looking forward to our next match and I want to take my revenge. It's impressive to see her success, honestly, and yes, she can definitely be a great player," admitted Aryna, who faces Viktoriya Tomova in the first round of the Miami Open.

The importance of having a good team

"Regarding young players, we are all different and each goes through different challenges. If you want the transition to professionalism to be smoother, you really have to surround yourself with a good team and the right people to have a healthy environment around you, things become easier. It's very difficult to succeed in sports when there is a lot of stress off the court. Basically, that's the main reason why some young players are going through it easily while others struggle more."
