Mirra Andreeva Wins First Grand Slam Title at French Open, Defeats Maja Chwalinska in Straight Sets

Mirra Andreeva won her first Grand Slam title on Saturday, June 6, 2026, by defeating Poland’s Maja Chwalinska 6-3, 6-2 in the French Open women’s singles final at Roland Garros. The 19-year-old Russian star completed a breakthrough run in Paris and became the youngest French Open women’s champion since the mid-2000s.

Andreeva entered the tournament as World No. 8 and lived up to her growing reputation as one of tennis’s brightest young talents. She lost just one set during the event and remained in control throughout the final, preventing Chwalinska’s surprise run from extending to a fairy-tale ending.

Chwalinska, who came through qualifying to reach her first Grand Slam final, was one of the standout stories of the 2026 French Open. Her path to the championship match drew attention, but Andreeva’s power, consistency, and composure proved too much on the biggest stage.

The title is a major milestone in Andreeva’s career and adds to her rapid rise in the sport. She is coached by former Wimbledon champion Conchita Martínez and reached the final after an impressive semifinal victory over Ukraine’s Marta Kostyuk earlier in the week.

With the French Open victory, Andreeva has now secured her first major championship and firmly established herself among the elite players in women’s tennis.
