Mirra Andreeva has won six of the seven matches she has played at the French Open in her careerAryna Sabalenka is aiming to extend her unbeaten run in Grand Slams in 2024 with Wednesday's French Open quarter-final opponent Mirra Andreeva admitting the Belarusian is on "another level".
World number two Sabalenka, who has made the semi-finals or better in her last six Slam appearances, including titles at the past two Australian Opens," said: "I'm super happy that I was able to bring this consistency on the Grand Slams.Russian Andreeva, 17, ended French hopes for another year with a 7-5 6-2 win over Varvara Gracheva.
However, Andreeva has been comfortably beaten in her two matches with Sabalenka, losing 6-3 6-1 in the last 16 of the Madrid Open in May 2022 and then 6-1 6-4 in the quarter-finals of the same event 12 months later. Sabalenka is the second seed and the top four seeds could all move into the semi-finals, with Poland's top seed Iga Swiatek set to play American third seed Coco Gauff in their last-four tie.
Each evening session of the French Open has seen a men's match and that run will continue as German fourth seed Alexander Zverev takes on Australia's Alex de Minaur, the 11th seed. De Minaur defeated fourth seed Daniil Medvedev in round four to become the first Australian to reach the quarter-finals in Paris since Lleyton Hewitt in 2004.
