Mirra Andreeva's Grand Slam win: Where is sister Erika?
8 Jun
Summary
- Mirra Andreeva won the 2026 French Open, her biggest career victory.
- Her older sister, Erika Andreeva, a professional tennis player, was not mentioned.
- Erika Andreeva, ranked World No. 230, has faced injuries recently.
Mirra Andreeva achieved a significant milestone in her tennis career by winning the 2026 French Open. This victory marks the biggest achievement of her young career.
During the post-win celebrations, attention turned to the absence of her older sister, Erika Andreeva. Erika, a 21-year-old professional tennis player, was previously credited by Mirra for guiding her path in the sport.
Erika Andreeva, who reached a career-high ranking of World No. 65 in October 2024, most recently competed in a WTA 125 event in Makarska, Croatia, exiting on June 4. She currently holds a World No. 230 ranking, having contended with injuries in recent years.
The lack of mention of Erika at Mirra's maiden Grand Slam win has raised eyebrows, given the often-supportive sisterly dynamics seen in tennis, exemplified by pairs like Serena and Venus Williams. The media has also largely overlooked Erika's career in light of Mirra's rise.
Following her win, Mirra indicated plans for a dinner celebration with her team. She was also seen in the stands supporting Alexander Zverev at the French Open.
