‘He Forgot About Me Already’- 16-Year-Old ‘Super Shy’ Russian WTA Star Reveals Awkward Chickening Out Moment Involving Idol Andy Murray at Wimbledon

Mirra Andreeva, a self-proclaimed huge fan of British tennis star Andy Murray, recently shared her experience of feeling shy and seemingly invisible around her idol when they happened to be in the same facility. Andreeva’s candid revelation highlights the vulnerability and excitement that fans often experience when encountering their favorite athletes, as well as the emotional impact these interactions, or lack thereof, can have on them.

Mirra Andreeva talks about feeling ignored by her crush Andy Murray

Mirra and Andy have had a few interactions before. Andreeva has expressed having a crush on Andy Murray several times. She even wished him congratulations after one of his matches and he replied back by thanking her. In fact, in one of her interviewers, she also called Andy one of the most beautiful players in tennis.

So owing to the same, she was expecting that Andy might remember her and try to talk to her at least. But as of now, there have been zero interactions. In a recent interview, she said, “When I see him, I’m just trying to leave the facility super-fast because I’m super shy to talk to him. For now, thank god he doesn’t talk to me. Maybe he forgot about me already, I don’t know.”

Besides not having Andy talk to her, she also mentioned that she is unable to be around him as well because she feels really shy and of course invisible to him too.

Mirra Andreeva makes her way to the third round at Wimbledon

After qualifying for Wimbledon, Andreeva had her first round yesterday against Wang Xiyu which she won 6-4, 3-6, 7-5. Then she had a match with Barbora today and she won that as well in straight sets.

A 16-year-old progressing to the third round of the Wimbledon is not too bad an achievement. The last time she played so well was because Andy Murray wished her the best for Roland Garros, and we are hoping if she gets a hint of lucky charm from Murray during Wimbledon as well, maybe, she will qualify for the fourth round as well.
