Competing against her elder sister Erika Andreeva, Mirra was forced to look on as the 20-year-old had to retire from the encounter. Mirra Andreeva ended up winning 6-2 1-0 (Ret.) in just over half an hour.<\/p><p>The 2025 edition of the WTA Stuttgart Open happens to be Mirra Andreeva&rsquo;s debut at the event.

However, she sparked minor concerns very early on with her right knee being heavily bandaged. As the match started, Erika broke Mirra&rsquo;s serve in the first game but couldn&rsquo;t sustain her level. At the very first changeover, she requested for a medical timeout.<\/p><p>With her knee having multiple layers of taping now, it was more or less a lost cause for Erika. The younger Andreeva maneuvered the ball around the court and eased her way to the first set 6-2. In the second set, the Paris Olympics silver medalist in women&rsquo;s doubles won a solitary opening game before her elder sibling had to call it quits.<\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Hall of Famer Conchita Martinez on Coaching Mirra Andreeva | Second Serve\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/SRyHtp7mVA0?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure><p>Mirra won nearly 94% points on her first serve, as opposed to just over 33% for Erika.

I specialise in tennis and football writing at The Playoffs News, and I have prior experience working at EssentiallySports and Sportskeeda. Born and raised in Bengaluru, India, sport was my safe space right from my childhood. After trying my hand at multiple sports and representing my educational institutions in cricket, badminton and table tennis, I found sports media to be my calling. My message to the readers is not to be shy to express themselves - regardless of whether it is playing, talking or writing about sport. And if you\u2019re a fan of Roger Federer, Lionel Messi and\/or Stephen Curry - I\u2019m your guy. \u00a0","sameAs":["https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/sankalphk","https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/sankalp-hk-660254215"],"url":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/author\/sankalp\/"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/40717"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/34"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=40717"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/40717\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":40721,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/40717\/revisions\/40721"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/40720"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=40717"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=40717"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=40717"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
