Mirra Andreeva is making great strides in her progression during this Mutua Madrid Open 2026 and emerges as the main opposition to the established power embodied by Sabalenka. The Russian, already in the semifinals, went through the press conference to address various issues that highlight her interesting personality.

The growth of Mirra Andreeva in the Mutua Madrid Open 2026 continues to solidify. Qualified for the semifinals for the first time in the Spanish capital, the Russian analyzed her performance, her mental evolution, and a very special personal moment, just on the eve of turning 19.

This is what Mirra Andreeva said after reaching the semifinals of the Mutua Madrid Open 2026

A match of maturity and emotional control

"I am very excited about the result, super happy with the way I played today. I am also happy to have kept my composure. I saved many break points and also set points, so I am very happy with the victory and very excited for tomorrow. Today I tried to turn things around and not let what happened yesterday repeat itself."

"I felt that I did a better job. Still, at times I was quite emotional, but I feel that it is a tennis match, and sometimes things happen. The most important thing is how you handle it and how you reset for the next point, and today was much better than yesterday."

Learning from the past without dwelling on it

"Last year, I thought a lot about that winning streak, and also this year, but it's not easy. When you have a lot of confidence, you don't feel as much pressure and you just play your aggressive tennis throughout the match. That's what happened to me when I won those tournaments. Then some pressure and expectations come, and you don't feel as secure anymore. It takes time to regain that confidence. I try not to think too much about it, because they were incredible results, but they are in the past. I try to improve other aspects and not bring that back but create something new."

Between excitement and nostalgia for growing up

"I am very excited about tomorrow, but at the same time, I felt a little sad. I don't want to grow up; I want to stay at 18 and be a girl all the time. I feel that time passes very quickly, and I am already turning 19. I don't know, I am excited but also a little sad. I don't feel like I am changing much as a person; maybe I have become calmer off the court. Before, I wanted to spend more time talking to my family after matches, and now I just want to go back to the room, be alone, read, watch a series, or be on my phone without talking to anyone. But overall, I am still the same Mirra."

A tennis adapting to sensations

"When facing break points, it is important to look for the first serve to try to win the point quickly. If it doesn't happen, I try to build the point from the baseline. Today I felt that I could do a lot of damage with my forehand, for some reason it was more dangerous, so I tried to use it more, and it worked very well after a few games in the first set. I try to use all my shots, but there are days when one works better than another, and then I try to adapt to that."

The importance of connections on the circuit

"I think everything is very individual. Some players don't have many friends and prefer to be alone with their team, but I have always wanted to have some friends on the circuit. Now I feel that I have people I can share my feelings with and talk about anything. For me, it is important to have someone who is also going through the same thing because family can understand you, but they haven't played and don't know exactly what it feels like on the court. Other players understand it better. I think it depends on each person, but I find it helpful to have some good friends."

At the Mutua Madrid Open 2026, we are witnessing a Mirra Andreeva who battles with herself but also surpasses tennis and emotional limits. She not only continues to progress in the draw but also in her maturity as a player. Between competitive demands and the naturalness of her age, the Russian shows an evolution that combines talent, self-criticism, and a growing ability to understand the game and herself.
