Behind the Scenes: 16-Year-Old Andreeva Reveals She's Followed By Netflix
16-year-old Mirra Andreeva won her first-ever Wimbledon match and dropped bombshell news regarding Netflix's Break Point.
The show proved to be a must-watch that gave fans new insight into how the ATP & WTA Tours look from the inside. Those close to the players like reporters weren't really enchanted with what they saw because they didn't see anything new however the average fan saw plenty of new things.
The show proved successful enough to bring it back for another season and one of the players that we'll see in next year's edition is tennis phenom Mirra Andreeva. The Russian amazed everybody by earning her first Top 20 win at 15 in Madrid recently.
She then made a decent run at Roland Garros and now, she proved to be great on grass too. She won her first match in the Wimbledon qualifiers coming one step closer to booking a spot at the most prestigious event in the world. After the match, Andreeva revealed that she was being followed by Netflix.
We started to work together since Paris. I like the attention they're giving me. They just follow me, they don't ask me any questions, so it's OK. I just do my thing and they're just around. They're nice people. So far!
The win was a pretty solid one as she beat a player that's not that familiar with grass. She isn't either and she talked about some of the difficulties she has on the surface like the bounce and the grass being quite slippery.
On the first practice I fell three times. It's pretty tough for me to get used to the grass -- the moving is different, the ball bounces differently, the grass is slippery. I feel a bit slow, but I think it's OK. I try to do small steps and I still feel dangerous on court. As we can see, it goes pretty well for now.
