CNN —Russian teenager Mirra Andreeva has continued her meteoric rise by reaching the third round of the French Open with an emphatic 6-1 6-2 win over France’s Diane Parry. The 16-year-old, who celebrated her birthday in April, is now the youngest player to reach the third round at Roland Garros since 2005, according to the WTA. Andreeva, the youngest player in this year’s main draw, took only 77 minutes to defeat wild card Parry and secure her sixth top 100 win of the season. Andreeva had already become the seventh youngest player this century to beat a top 20 player, according to the WTA, when she beat world No. Andreeva, who was unranked 14 months ago, entered her first Grand Slam at Roland Garros this year.

☆ Can These Russians Become Tennis’s Next Great Sister Act?

First came an early rise to get Mirra, a 16-year-old Russian, ready for her 11 a.m. French Open debut against Alison Riske-Amritraj of the United States. Then came a long wait for Mirra’s older sister, 18-year-old Erika, who was last up on Court No. So it goes for tennis’s newest sister act. Sister acts are not exactly new in women’s tennis, which was headlined for more than two decades by the American duo of Serena and Venus Williams. Venus Williams, 42, still has not retired, though another major title seems unlikely.
