Day 5 Diary: Mirra dreams of winning 25 Slams – Roland-Garros

Two goals became apparent following the teenage qualifier’s 6-1, 6-2 win over Parry.

First, her dream opponent.

“I would like to play Ons Jabeur because I like the way she plays, and I think our game is quite, let’s say, similar,” Andreeva said. “So I would like to play her.”

That match-up could not play out at Roland-Garros until the semi-finals this fortnight but if both continue on their winning ways, it is not beyond the realms of possibility.

Second, her longer-term ambitions.

“I know that Djokovic, he did 22 Grand Slams or 23, so I want to go until 25, if it will be possible. I don’t know,” she said.

“But I will just play. For now my goal is to win match by match, to win next match.”
