Andreeva won her second successive WTA 1,000 title with a performance of poise, authority and resilience against the world No.1.

Aryna Sabalenka funnily warned Mirra Andreeva that she will be out for revenge when they meet next time after falling short in the Indian Wells final. In early 2025, the world No. 1 ousted the Russian 6-3 6-2 en route to winning the Brisbane International and she also registered a dominant 6-1 6-2 victory in their round-of-16 matchup at the Australian Open.

Russian teenager Mirra Andreeva has come back to beat No. 1-ranked Aryna Sabalenka 2-6, 6-4, 6-3 in the BNP Paribas Open.
