Your Mutua Madrid Open runner-up, Mirra Andreeva! With this run, she is pretty much secured a Top 8 seeding at Roland Garros. (The runner-up in Madrid has gone on to reach the quarterfinals at Roland Garros for the past 4 years!) [📸: Clive Brunskill/Getty]

Controlling her emotions throughout the final with no meltdowns and no frustration shown at her team, the tears understandably flowed after match point. It's incredible growth for someone who was saying "I’m not a champion. I will lose. I choke." days ago. Very proud of Mirra!

Rough day on court for Mirra Andreeva with a couple of costly unforced errors making the difference, but so proud of the effort in the past fortnight. Despite all the difficulties faced on court today, she never once let emotions overwhelm her. [📸: Clive Brunskill/Getty]
