Andreeva extends deepest US Open run into quarters

  • On Monday, fifth-seeded French Open champion Mirra Andreeva defeated Austrian Anastasia Potapova 5-7, 6-4, 6-3 in New York, securing her first U.S. Open quarterfinal appearance.
  • Andreeva struggled early, committing twice as many unforced errors as Potapova in the opening set; the 19-year-old Grand Slam champion then cleaned up her form in the final two sets to overcome the deficit.
  • During the final set, Potapova collapsed, clutching her left knee after chasing a baseline ball. Andreeva, who called her opponent "a pretty good friend," rushed to assist her to the bench before clinching with a backhand winner.
  • Reflecting on the difficult conclusion, Andreeva said, "It's not the way obviously you want to finish the match," and added, "I'm sure she's going to come back stronger."
  • The French Open winner will face the winner of an all-American quarterfinal clash between Iva Jovic and Coco Gauff, extending her deepest run at the U.S. Open.
