Andreeva seeks to overcome her own barriers at the US Open

The Roland Garros champion has never managed to show her best tennis on the North American hard court tour while the New York tournament is the only one where she has not yet reached the second week.

Mirra Andreeva is already looking towards the US Open 2026 after her stumble at Wimbledon and following her title at Roland Garros. A European summer full of emotions and ups and downs, but the pupil of Conchita Martínez has one last important challenge at the final Grand Slam of the year and on the North American hard court tour.

The 19-year-old Russian has already proven to be one of the best players in the world, entering the privileged list of Grand Slam champions and gradually trying to tame her on-court temperament. But in sporting terms, the objective is crystal clear - to fight for the US Open.

However, the young tennis player won't have it easy considering that her performance in this tour and in the last Grand Slam of the year has never been the best, especially compared to the successes and results Andreeva has achieved in the other Grand Slams and tours.

Despite her career being at its beginning stages, the US Open is the only one of the four Grand Slams where she has never at least reached the round of 16. In the Australian Open, she made the round of 16 in the last three editions, captured the title at Roland Garros a month ago, and reached the quarterfinals at Wimbledon in 2025.

Mirra Andreeva's results at the US Open and the rest of the North American hard court tour

Andreeva made her debut in New York in 2023 with a second-round defeat against Coco Gauff, who would go on to win that edition. In 2024, she was also defeated in the second round by Ashlyn Krueger, while in her last participation, hindered by an ankle sprain suffered in Canada, she bid farewell in the third round against Taylor Townsend.

Her performances in the WTA 1000 in Canada and in Cincinnati also leave much to be desired. In the former, her only participation ended in the second round, and in the Ohio tournament, she reached the quarterfinals, though last year she couldn't compete due to her ankle injury.

On the bright side, Mirra Andreeva has a great opportunity to accumulate a substantial amount of points in the WTA ranking to approach the rankings' top spots. While her success at Roland Garros and the experience of winning a Grand Slam could provide the necessary boost not only to reach her first round of 16 at the US Open but also to contend for the title.
