Andreeva hunting Gauff’s tally and AO 2025 glory
Jasmine Paolini had too much for her in the last four, but Andreeva had laid down a marker. She claimed her maiden Tour-level title at the Iasi Open in July, then won Olympic silver in the doubles alongside fellow youngster Diana Shnaider, back on the clay courts of Roland Garros.
Though she could not get going at Wimbledon or the US Open, she rounded off 2024 with deep runs in Beijing and Ningbo, reaching the final of the latter tournament but losing to compatriot Daria Kasatkina.
Andreeva finished the year with 34 main-draw wins on the Tour – the most of any teenager, eight clear of next best, Linda Noskova (26).
Going supernova?
Andreeva has maintained that momentum heading into 2025.
Sabalenka might have got her own back with a straight-sets triumph in the Brisbane International semifinals, but there were few signs of that loss shaking Andreeva when she took to the court at John Cain Arena for her AO 2025 bow on Sunday.
Bouzkova was no match as Andreeva – the youngest player ranked in the top 20 by the WTA since Nicole Vaidisova in October 2006 – shrugged off the odd wobble, as well as a storm causing a delay, to cast aside a player nine years her senior 6-3 6-3 in a little over 90 minutes.
Sunday’s victory means Andreeva has now won 16 of her 23 major matches. In the 21st century, only two players can boast a better Grand Slam win ratio while 18 or younger than Andreeva’s 69.6% – Vaidisova (72.2% – 26/36) and Maria Sharapova
(75% – 24/32).
Meanwhile, only three female players since the start of 2000 can boast more wins before turning 18 – Vaidisova (26), Sharapova (24) and Gauff (18).
Gauff’s win tally, then, is firmly in Andreeva’s sights at AO 2025.
As the Australian Open 2025 approaches, all eyes are on the rising tennis star, Andreeva, as she sets her sights on hunting down Gauff’s impressive tally of Grand Slam titles. With both players in top form and hungry for success, the stage is set for an epic showdown on the courts of Melbourne.
Andreeva, known for her powerful serves and relentless baseline game, has been making waves in the tennis world with her impressive performances in recent tournaments. With a runner-up finish at the US Open and a semifinal appearance at the French Open, Andreeva is proving herself to be a force to be reckoned with on the WTA tour.
But standing in her way is none other than the formidable Gauff, who has already made a name for herself as one of the brightest young talents in tennis. With multiple Grand Slam titles under her belt, Gauff is a force to be reckoned with on the court, and Andreeva knows that she will have to bring her A-game if she hopes to dethrone the reigning champion.
As the countdown to the Australian Open begins, tennis fans around the world are eagerly anticipating the clash between Andreeva and Gauff, with many predicting a thrilling battle for the title. Will Andreeva be able to hunt down Gauff’s tally of Grand Slam titles and claim her first Australian Open crown? Only time will tell, but one thing is for certain – the tennis world is in for an exciting ride as these two young stars go head to head for glory on the courts of Melbourne.
