Bianca Andreescu is one of the best tennis players of the young generation, who won the US Open in 2019. In the Miami Open 2023, in the match against Ekaterina Aleksandrova, she was probably heading for the quarterfinals, when she suddenly shouted: – Oh my God! -. The tennis player left the court in a wheelchair.

Canada’s Bianca Andreescu met Ekaterina Alexandrova at the Miami Open in a match for the quarterfinals of the event. The favorite was Aleksandrowa, who is higher in the ranking. Andreescu was in the Miami Open final in 2021.

In the first set, the Russiann was more lucky. It was an even set, but the Russian was better in the tie-break, which she won to nil. In the second set, the Canadian rebounded. Andreescu took a 2-0 lead in games and gave up only two points. However, everything changed at the beginning of the third game.

At the beginning of the third game of the second set, Andreescu took a wrong step and injured her ankle. The Canadian screamed “oh my God” and couldn’t get up. Ultimately, Andreescu had to leave the court in a wheelchair and we will not see her for the next few weeks.
