Mirra Andreeva has every faith her sister Erika can achieve big things in professional tennis<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The 17-year-old has taken her game to the next level in 2025 and she shocked the world by claiming successive WTA 1000 titles.<\/p>\n

Her Dubai<\/a> and Indian Wells <\/a>championship titles propelled her into the top 10 and Andreeva is now one of the most feared players on the WTA Tour<\/a>.<\/p>\n

But she is not the only member of the Andreeva household on the circuit, as Mirra\u2019s elder sister Erika is also trying to carve out a successful tennis career.<\/p>\n

The tennis world became accustomed to seeing siblings play on the WTA Tour courtesy of Serena and Venus Williams<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The duo achieved unbridled amounts of success during their careers and they hold a combined 30 Grand Slam singles titles between them and 14 doubles titles.<\/p>\n

But Serena retired and Venus having not played since March 2024, a new sibling duo are making waves on the WTA Tour in Mirra and Erika Andreeva<\/a>.<\/p>\n

While Mirra has proven she can win top titles and the sky is the limit for her career, the World number seven believes her elder sister is also capable of succeeding at the top level.<\/p>\n

\u201cWell, I\u2019m saying not because I\u2019m her sister, but also I watch her from the outside, and I think that maybe she needs a little bit more time,\u201d the 2024 French Open semi-finalist<\/a> told reporters.<\/p>\n

\u201cMaybe she\u2019s gonna do it sooner, but I\u2019m sure that if she keeps believing in herself, she\u2019s gonna achieve great things.<\/p>\n

\u201cI see her lifting big and important trophies, and I see her beating great and top players, so that\u2019s what I wish for her. I think that she\u2019s gonna do it soon enough.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Andreeva sisters have grown up playing together and now they have achieved their dream by becoming professional tennis players.<\/p>\n

They faced one another on tour for the first time at the 2024 Wuhan Open<\/a>, which Erika, 20, won 6-3, 6-1.<\/p>\n

Following their Stuttgart Open match which Mirra won after her sister retired<\/a> while trailing 2-6, 0-1, the 17-year-old opened up on what their practice sessions are like.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe played a couple of times on the practices when we were younger, and actually, until Wuhan last year, we never ever played an official match,\u201d Andreeva added. \u201cSo we were always playing a couple of games on the practices or a couple of tiebreaks.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut most of the time of course she has, like, I don\u2019t know, 90% win against me, and this is actually the first time I really won the set against her.<\/p>\n

\u201cI just know that of course if she would feel her 100%, the score would be completely different and the match would be different, as well. But I\u2019m sure that we have a lot of time to play and to show the great level of tennis.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Mirra Andreeva has every faith her sister Erika can achieve big things in professional tennis.
