Mirra Andreeva thanks her parents and team after winning Roland Garros
βThanks to my team. I can be a tough cookie sometimes. π Itβs pretty hard to put up with me certain days. Thank you very much for pushing me to my limits. Thank you for making me work even when I donβt want to work. You always push me. Thanks to Conchita especially for sharing her experience. Giving me so much advice. Iβm not gonna thank every one of you because I think thatβs too much π But thanks to every single one of you on my team who supports me.β
βI will say a special thanks to my parents for always supporting me and always believing in me. My dad is currently watching on tv. Thanks so much for always being there for me and supporting me no matter what.β β€οΈ
Well deserved, I am glad she also got to change her life in the process. I remember the GOAT talking about how it doesn't sit well with him that players in lower rankings struggle financially. He always has the players' interests at heartπ€π€ππΌ
Conchita MartΓnez in her post-match interview:
βMirra is the hardest-working and most talented tennis player Iβve ever coached. One player I worked with before used to go on vacation 12 times a year.β
Trayvon Bromell πΊπΈ beats a strong field in the men's 100m at the Lone Star Grand Prix in 9.85s (+3.8)!
He beat Andre de Grasse π¨π¦ and World Champion Oblique Seville π―π² who were 2nd and 3rd respectively in 9.91s, separated by 0.003s.
I can't remember which tournament but Mirra had just won a match and she was already organizing after the match a session to fine tune some things, ngathi yah kuyasebenzwa laππππππππΌππΌππΌππΌππΌππΌ and look now they have won a grandslam.
Iβve started appreciating days where nothing dramatic happens. no bad news, no stressful interactions, no overwhelming thoughts. just a normal, quiet day where everything is calm. those are the days that actually feel like rest.
Stop glorifying urgency. Not every dream needs to be chased in panic. Some of what is meant for you will require patience, rhythm, and a nervous system that finally feels safe enough to receive it.
