Mirra Andreeva confirmed on social media that she will participate in the WTA 500 tournament in Adelaide at the beginning of 2026. The tournament will be held from January 12 to 17, a week before the Australian Open, and it will be a great prelude for the 18-year-old tennis player before one of the biggest challenges at the beginning of the season.
This tournament will gather quality tennis players like Jessica Pegula, Madison Keys, Emma Navarro and many others.
Madison Keys is the current champion of the tournament, and there is no doubt that she will have the same ambitions this year.
As for Mirra Andreeva’s season, she really had a successful year, making serious progress week after week.
As the current 9th player in the world, she showed that she can handle the greats of this sport, and the victory at the BNP Paribas Open against Aryna Sabalenka was the moment that marked her season. At the Dubai Tennis Championship, she had an equal chance to triumph by winning against the Danish tennis player Clara Tauson, further progressed and entered the Top 10 WTA rankings.
Before the start of this season, the young tennis player revealed that her ambition is to enter the Top 10. Having fulfilled her goal, she can certainly be satisfied with what she has achieved.
“My number one goal for 2025 is to crack the top 10… I’m just gonna do my best and see if we can achieve this goal.”
Andreeva’s goals
She will not stop there, aiming to progress further.
Considering that she was only 18 years old in 2025, there is no doubt that she can further advance in the WTA rankings and try to spoil the plans of even tennis players like Aryna Sabalenka and Iga Swiatek.
Andreeva had a few bad moments this season, like losing in the quarterfinals of Roland Garros, but all in all, she can be really satisfied with her rise. This is a great prelude to the next season.
