Her 7-6 (8-6) 6-3 win over Haddad Maia made her the seventh-youngest player since 2000 to beat a top-20 ranked opponent. "But of course, I didn't expect to be here and playing Sabalenka in the last 16."Īndreeva's triumph over 2023 Australian Open semi-finalist Linette comes after she beat Brazil's world number 14 Beatriz Haddad Maia in round two, just 24 hours after overcoming 2021 US Open finalist Leylah Fernandez.

"I'm not really surprised with my level, because I know the way I can play on the court. "I didn't expect to be here and go this far," Andreeva said.

The world number 194 will face second seed Aryna Sabalenka in the next round.
