Mirra Andreeva Loses to Barbora Krejčíková at Wimbledon

Mirra Andreeva lost to Barbora Krejčíková on 2 Jul 2026. The French Open champion was defeated 4-6, 7-5, 6-4 in a thrilling match at Wimbledon.

Andreeva faced six match points when Krejčíková served for the match at 5-3. She saved them all before finally converting her fourth break point in a marathon game.

The 19-year-old Russian handed her opponent a seventh match point when she sliced a backhand wide in the next game. Krejčíková converted with a bit of luck as her shot hit the net cord and bounced in, with Andreeva returning it long.

Andreeva was coming off her first grand slam title at Roland Garros less than a month ago. Her loss to Krejčíková is a significant upset in the women's tournament.

The fifth seed threw her racket away in disgust and later smashed it into her bag before leaving centre court. Krejčíková said, 'What a match,' trying to sum it all up.

Andreeva's loss means she will not advance to the next round of Wimbledon. Krejčíková, on the other hand, will face her next opponent in the third round.

Daria Kasatkina, who won her match against Janice Tjen, will face Naomi Osaka in the next round. Osaka beat Anastasia Gasanova 6-3, 6-2, and is a four-time grand slam champion.

Kasatkina said, 'It's obviously a very tough draw and a very tough match, especially on grass.' She has never beaten Osaka before, but is feeling more confident after her win against Tjen.

Osaka showed off a new look before her match, wearing an all-white outfit with a wide belt and a long, trailing train. She took it off as she began warming up for her match against Gasanova.

The match between Kasatkina and Osaka promises to be an exciting one, with both players looking to advance to the next round. Kasatkina has not gone beyond the third round at Wimbledon before, but is feeling more confident after her recent win.

Andreeva's loss is a significant upset, but she will look to bounce back in her next tournament. Her win at Roland Garros less than a month ago shows that she has the potential to win big matches.

Krejčíková's win over Andreeva is a big one for her, and she will look to keep her momentum going in the next round. She has a tough road ahead of her, but is feeling confident after her win over the French Open champion.
