Andreeva is still struggling to regain her form after her coronation in Paris

Mirra Andreeva has not managed to regain the momentum that led her to conquer Roland Garros a few months ago. The Russian fell this Friday in the third round of the WTA 1000 in Toronto against Leylah Fernandez (6-1, 6-4) and left the tournament earlier than expected.

Since lifting the trophy in Paris, Andreeva has only played five matches, and the record is starting to become significant: two wins and three losses. This sequence contrasts with the spectacular progression she had during the first half of the season, leaving Mirra searching for sensations once again.

Against Fernandez, just a few minutes ago, Andreeva was far from her best version. The Canadian took control from the outset and claimed the first set with a resounding 6-1. The Russian attempted to respond in the second set, but she couldn't find the necessary consistency to challenge a particularly motivated opponent in front of her home crowd. It seems obvious that she needs to change the dynamic as soon as possible, although we know that the circuit waits for no one.

The result prolongs a small slump for Andreeva following the biggest success of her still short career. Her triumph at Roland Garros made her one of the major figures on the circuit and confirmed all the potential attributed to her, but since then the results have not followed with the same strength. The loss to Fernandez again highlights the difficulty of maintaining a level of performance after reaching such a significant peak. Andreeva must now take advantage of the upcoming segment of the season to regain confidence and rediscover the consistency that allowed her to prevail in Paris.

Toronto thus ends prematurely for a player who arrived at the tournament intending to continue her growth. Three losses in five matches since Roland Garros are not yet a reason to speak of a crisis, but they are a signal that Andreeva is going through a different moment compared to just a few weeks ago.
