Teenage phenom Andreeva has won the 2026 Adelaide International all-teens clash for the fourth time in a row.
Andreeva defeated Victoria Mboko 6–3, 6–1 in the final to win her first WTA 500 title.
It was Andreeva’s 12th win from the last 13 matches to capture the 2026 Adelaide title.
After the win, Andreeva said during the trophy presentation: “Hi everyone, First of course I want to say congratulations to Vicky and her team. You’ve been playing great since last year and I just want to congratulate you on a great week.
Laughing with her own team, she said, “I don’t know, I think my team will come next. But I feel like it was all me. I don’t know what I can do. I’ve been working, sweating, and I don’t know why you’re here, honestly.”
The world No.8 showed the world at the Adelaide final that it’s not about how you start, but how you finish.
As evidenced by her spectacular display of play after dropping the first three games but winning nine straight between the first and second sets to go on to a straight sets victory over Victoria Mboko, she won her fourth career crown.
The teenage phenom was buzzing with triumph and shared a montage post after the match.
In a lyrical two-line couplet, she was seen saying: “Mirra, Mirra on the wall, I’m Adelaide’s champion after all.”
