French Open: Mirra Andreeva Turns Tables On Ashlyn Krueger With Gritty Second-round Win
Mirra Andreeva: Ten months after Ashlyn Krueger had knocked her out of the US Open in straight sets, the 18-year-old Russian, Mirra Andreeva, found her moment of redemption on the clay courts of Roland Garros. Andreeva overcame a slow start to outplay Krueger 6-3, 6-4 in the second round on Thursday, advancing to the third round in Paris for the third consecutive year.
Andreeva once again showcased her resilience in a match that mirrored her gritty opening-round comeback. Down 3-1 in the opening set, she turned the tide against the hard-hitting Krueger with smart shot selection and unshakable nerves. From 3-1 down, Andreeva reeled off six consecutive games to take the set and the momentum.
“This match wasn’t easy,” Andreeva said in her post-match interview. “I lost to her at the US Open, so I knew it would be tough. She’s powerful and aggressive, so I had to stay calm and find a way.”
