Born in Krasnoyarsk, Russia, on 29 April 2007, Andreeva became the world's top-ranked junior in May 2023, weeks before qualifying for her first Wimbledon. In April 2024 she began working with Conchita Martínez, a former Wimbledon champion, and that summer she won Olympic doubles silver in Paris with Diana Shnaider. In 2025, at 17, she won Dubai and then Indian Wells, beating the world No. 1, Aryna Sabalenka, 2-6, 6-4, 6-3 in the final. In 2026 she won Adelaide and Linz, reached the Madrid final and won Roland Garros, beating Maja Chwalińska 6-3, 6-2 to become the youngest champion there since Monica Seles in 1992. Her 2026 grass season was brief: seeded 5th at Wimbledon, she lost in the second round to Barbora Krejčíková, whom she had beaten there in 2023, after saving six match points.

Wimbledon 2023 · Fourth round
"I slid"
At 16, a qualifier, she won the first set against Madison Keys. She flung her racquet in the second-set tie-break and was warned; at 2-5 in the third, as she slid, the racquet left her hand again, and the umpire, Louise Azemar Engzell, gave a point penalty that handed Keys match point. "I didn't throw the racket. I slid," Andreeva protested. She walked past the umpire's chair at the end.
Fined for unsporting behaviour, she pointed to the player she most admired. "I knew that Roger Federer was struggling with emotions when he was teenager," she said. "I'm not the only one who also struggles. You just have to work on yourself." Two years later, Federer was in the Centre Court crowd for one of her best grass wins.
In April 2024, after an injury break, she began a trial partnership with Conchita Martínez, a former Wimbledon champion, after her agent put them in touch. "So far, so good," she said. "I like it, I hope she likes it too." The first thing they worked on was her slice, "because she was a good slicer."
Her first match on Centre Court was a fourth round against Emma Navarro, and she admitted she had been very nervous. She won 6-2, 6-3, at first not realising the match was over, while Roger Federer and his wife Mirka stood to applaud. "Seeing Roger in person was my big dream," she said, and thanked Conchita Martínez for advice that had worked.
Seeded 7th and ranked No. 7 at 18, she met Belinda Bencic for a place in the semi-finals and lost 7-6, 7-6. Bencic said she had a lot of respect for her, had studied her the night before to prepare a plan, and was the calmer of the two in the second tie-break.
Weeks after winning Roland Garros she played her only grass warm-up and lost her first match there to Ekaterina Alexandrova 6-3, 6-4. The defeat had one bright moment: in the second set she hit a table-tennis-style shot with so much backspin that it landed on Alexandrova's side and bounced back over the net to win the point.
