Mirra Andreeva defeated Maja Chwalinska in two sets (6-3 and 6-2) in the Roland Garros final this Saturday and was crowned a Grand Slam champion at just 19 years old. They are playing the second set of the Roland Garros final this Saturday. The first set began with four breaks of serve, two for each player. With the score at 2-2, both improved their serves to make it 3-3, but that’s when Andreeva stepped up a gear to control the match. She got another break, defended her serve, and then broke Chwalinska’s serve again to win the first set of the match.
The Russian tennis player gained confidence after winning the first set and started the second set overwhelmingly. The world number eight gave her opponent no breathing room. She went up 5-0 after defending her three serves and breaking the Polish player’s two serves. It was then that Chwalinska slightly improved the score. She made it 5-1 and broke her opponent’s serve to make it 5-2. But with the possibility of putting the Russian tennis player in trouble at 5-3, Andreeva finished the final with a great break.
We say goodbye for today, but tomorrow we will bring you the men’s final, a duel between Germany’s Sasha Zverev and Italy’s Fabio Cobolli.
Maja Chwalinska hoped to continue the Polish legacy established by Iga Swiatek in the tournament, winning four of the previous six editions, but she will still have to wait to lift her first Grand Slam trophy. She is not as young as her opponent today, but at 24, she can still dream of achieving something great in the future.
Andreeva is the first Russian player to win Roland Garros since the iconic Maria Sharapova did so in 2014. She is the fourth player from that country to achieve it in the 21st century after Myskina (2004), Kuznetsova (2009) and Sharapova herself, who won it in 2012 in addition to the aforementioned 2014.
Conchita Martínez’s protégé, who was very attentive to the Russian throughout the match, managed to curb the power and quality of the Polish player Maja Chwalinska’s hitting, who, after a very even start to the match, collapsed and could never contain Andreeva’s steamroller.
FINAL!! Victory for teenager Mirra Andreeva, who wins her first Grand Slam at just 19 years old. She does so with brilliance in a final decided by 6-3 and 6-2.
