History

2022: WTA Tour debut

Andreeva made her WTA Tour main-draw debut at the 2022 Jasmin Open, after receiving a wildcard for the singles event. However, she lost in the first round against sixth seed Anastasia Potapova, in a 2 hours and 35 minutes three-setter.

2023: French Open fourth round, top 50

In January 2023, Andreeva reached the final of the girls' singles at the Australian Open, eventually losing to doubles partner Alina Korneeva, in three sets.

At 15 years of age, ranked No. 194, Andreeva received a wildcard into the main draw of the WTA 1000 Madrid Open and won her first WTA Tour match against Leylah Fernandez. With this victory, she became the third youngest player to win a main-draw match at a WTA 1000 tournament, behind only Coco Gauff and CiCi Bellis. Moreover, Andreeva was the second 15-year-old to defeat a top-50 opponent at a WTA 1000 tournament, with Bellis being the first in 2015. Next, she defeated 13th seed Beatriz Haddad Maia for her first top-20 win to reach the third round, becoming the seventh player to defeat a top-20 opponent before the age of 16 in the 21st century. On her 16th birthday, she recorded her 16th professional win against another top-20 player, 17th seed Magda Linette, to reach the round of 16. Next, she lost to eventual champion, Aryna Sabalenka. As a result, Andreeva moved more than 50 positions up into the top 150 of the rankings on 8 May 2023, at world No. 146.

Andreeva made her Grand Slam tournament debut at the French Open, qualifying for the main draw and then defeating Alison Riske-Amritraj in the first round to record her first major win. Next, she defeated wildcard player Diane Parry to reach the third round for the first time at a major. As a result, she became the youngest player to reach this milestone since 15-year-old Sesil Karatantcheva in 2005 and the seventh player in the past 30 years to reach this stage at Roland Garros before turning 17. Despite winning the first set, Andreeva lost to sixth seed and eventual quarterfinalist, Coco Gauff, in the third round. She moved more than 40 positions up in the WTA rankings, one spot shy of the top 100, on 12 June 2023.

Andreeva at the 2023 US Open

Andreeva made her main-draw debut at Wimbledon after qualifying. She had reached the third round, defeating Wang Xiyu and tenth seed Barbora Krejčíková by retirement for the biggest win of her career. Next, she defeated 22nd seed and fellow Russian, Anastasia Potapova, to play in the fourth round, becoming the youngest player since Coco Gauff in 2019 to reach this milestone at the All England Club. As a result, she rose in the rankings into the top 70. At the US Open, Andreeva won her first-round match, before falling in the second round to the eventual champion Coco Gauff. She reached a new career-high of No. 57, on 11 September 2023. At the China Open, she advanced to the third round as a qualifier losing to Elena Rybakina, and rose in the rankings into the top 50.

2024: First career title, Olympic doubles silver, top 20

At the Brisbane International, Andreeva won her first three matches to reach her first WTA Tour quarterfinal, taking out the fourth seed and top-20 player Liudmila Samsonova and wildcard player Arina Rodionova along the way. At the 2024 Australian Open, she defeated Bernarda Pera and next sixth seed Ons Jabeur, her first top-10 win, to reach the third round on her debut at this major. At age 16 and 263 days, Andreeva was the youngest player in the Open Era to hand a top-10 seed a first-set bagel at a major tournament. She was also the second-youngest player in the Open Era to lose fewer than three games against a top-10 seed at a major. The youngest was Jelena Dokic when she defeated world No. 1, Martina Hingis, in the first round of 1999 Wimbledon. In the third round of the Australian Open, Andreeva defeated Diane Parry, after trailing 1–5 in the final set and saving a match point on her own serve at 2–5. She was the fourth player in the last 30 years to reach the fourth round in singles, before turning 17 at both Wimbledon and the Australian Open after Martina Hingis, Tatiana Golovin and Coco Gauff. She subsequently lost to No. 9 seed Barbora Krejčíková in the fourth round in another three-set match.

At the French Open, Andreeva reached her first major semifinal with wins over Emina Bektas, 19th seed Victoria Azarenka, Peyton Stearns, Varvara Gracheva, and second seed Aryna Sabalenka. This made her the youngest player to reach the fourth round of a major on all three surfaces since Anna Kournikova in 1998, and youngest player to reach the semifinals of the French Open since Martina Hingis in 1997. As a result she reached the top 25 on 10 June 2024 at world No. 23. In doubles at the same tournament, she reached the quarterfinals partnering Vera Zvonareva.

Seeded 24th, Andreeva went out of the Wimbledon Championships in the first round losing to Brenda Fruhvirtová, 6–1, 3–6, 2–6.

In July at the Iași Open, she won her maiden career title by defeating Elina Avanesyan in the final when her opponent retired injured during the third set.

At the Paris Olympics, Andreeva partnered with Diana Shnaider to win silver in the women's doubles, losing in the final to Sara Errani and Jasmine Paolini.

Following reaching the quarterfinals of the WTA 1000 China Open, Andreeva reached the top 20 on 7 October 2024, making her the youngest player to reach the milestone since the 17-year-old Nicole Vaidišová in October 2006. Later that month she made the final at the Ningbo Open but lost in three sets to Daria Kasatkina.
