Mirra Andreeva Makes History with Indian Wells Victory

The 17-year-old Russian tennis star defeats World No. 1 Aryna Sabalenka to claim her second consecutive WTA 1000 title and reach a career-high World No. 6 ranking.

Mirra Andreeva became the youngest player in 40 years to defeat both the World No. 1 and No. 2 in the same tournament, securing victory at Indian Wells.
She overcame a first-set deficit to defeat Aryna Sabalenka 2-6, 6-4, 6-3 in the final, marking her second straight WTA 1000 title after winning in Dubai.
Andreeva is now ranked World No. 6, the highest of her career, and leads the WTA Tour with a 19-3 win-loss record this season.
Her achievements place her alongside tennis legends like Serena Williams and Martina Hingis, as the third-youngest champion in Indian Wells history.
The teenager is set to compete in the Miami Open, where she has the opportunity to complete the prestigious Sunshine Double.
