All she does is win.

That’s the story of Bianca Andreescu in a nutshell and the 19-year-old Canadian kept up her winning ways on Tuesday in New York by notching her maiden US Open main draw win, 6-2 6-4 over 17-year-old Katie Volynets.

Andreescu, who ended 2018 at 178 in the world, has stormed onto the scene and claimed titles at Indian Wells and Toronto, while compiling a mind-blowing 7-0 record against the Top 10.

She improved to 28-4 on the season and will move on to face Belgium’s Kirsten Flipkens in the second round.



Winning breeds confidence, and Andreescu is racking up the victories. She is clearly a player with no confidence issues.

“I think it skyrocketed,” she said of her belief. “I have been doing really well this year, and I think if you believe in yourself then I think you can do big things. I think that's where I'm at right now.”

Not only is she confident—she doesn’t shy away from the expectations. Instead she takes the fact that many believe she has a shot to win this year’s US Open as a compliment.

It’s one day at a time, one title at a time, for Andreescu.

Think people are interested in Bianca Andreescu? This is the sight at a capacity Court 10, and people are standing on the adjacent bleachers over on Court 9, too.
