Russian tennis player Mirra Andreeva has reached the 1/8 finals of Wimbledon 2023. The results are available on the tournament website.

In the fourth round, the 16-year-old athlete, ranked 102nd in the Women’s Tennis Association (WTA) ranking, played against American Madison Keys. The meeting ended with the score 3:6, 7:6 (7:4), 6:2 in favor of the 18th racket of the world. Tennis players spent 2 hours and 4 minutes on the court.

On July 9, Russian tennis player Daniil Medvedev called Andreeva’s results exceptional. “It’s one thing to play good tennis, it’s another thing to consistently win matches,” he said.

In May, Andreeva reached the third round of her debut Roland Garros. Then the Russian woman played for the first time in the main draw of the Grand Slam tournament.

On March 31, the UK Lawn Tennis Association, which organizes Wimbledon, allowed Russian and Belarusian tennis players who signed a “declaration of neutrality” to participate in the 2023 tournament. Later, information appeared that the athletes agreed to this condition.
