Bianca Andreescu, the Canadian tennis star, hit the headlines when she outclassed the 23 times Grand Slam champion, Serena Williams, in the 2019 US Open. Following that, she made it to the finals of the Miami Open 2021 by thrashing high-caliber players such as Sakkari. Although the Canadian didn’t win the masters 1000 title at Miami, she made it into the list of promising players.
However, her game went down a steep slope, and she made an initial round exit in multiple tournaments after Miami. Thereafter, she incurred an injury that fueled her falling self-belief and later made her take a mental health break. Bianca took a five-month break to heal herself and spoke about her experience in a recent interview.
