Good to see Bianca taking care of herself and taking her breaks when needed. Glad she fell back in love with tennis. May she continue to figure out what works best for her mentally, physically and spiritually.
Your greatest strength is your mind set, i see a natural born fighter, with high mental stamina, thats something that you can't really teach. I love watching your game, especially when you begin to study your opponent and star mixing up your game. Your a natural, hurry back, heal and know you have alot of support.
One of my favorite tennis players.
Bianca is such a sweetheart, she will always have my support. Seeing that she's practicing Yoga gives me hope 🥰
Hopefully that helps her recover and enable her to enjoy a injury-free career. It would be a huge loss for tennis if she suffers the same fate that Juan Martin Del Potro did. He too won the US Open at a young age and was projected to win many more, but endless strings of injuries derailed his once promising career.
@@jcpenny3606 Often people don't realise just how much of a mental game tennis is. Hatha Yoga does not only heal and tone the body, it also affects the mind tremendously if it is practiced correctly. So we hope Bianca's injury will heal completely and then we can start again.
Delpo was indeed a sad case. One of the nicest guys on tour but as you mentioned, injuries put a stop to his career.
According to studies that have been made, there are bodies in tennis that are more suitable than others. Sampras and Federer had the ideal measurements and weight because basically they were not too tall, not too short, not too heavy and not too light. It makes sense.
So Del Potro, Isner and Karlovic are certainly not ideal. Del Potro was the only one out of these three who won a slam. Isner had a lot of problems with minor injuries and Karlovic had figured out how to not get himself into danger by playing it save. He relied entirely on his serve which was the most feared in men's tennis most of the time.
i really love how her mother responds to bianca saying she used to be skinny by saying she didn't have a lot of muscles and that now she looks like an athlete. this is the correct and healthy perspective to instil in your child and its so important as a mother to not feed the negative self-talk their daughters have (altho i cannot be certain bianca was saying it to be negative). all mothers should be like this
What Bianca said at 0:17 is the reason many athletes experience burn-out.
you inspire each and every one of us from day to day bibi. we are with you every step of the way never forget that ❤
Life is tough. Take care of yourself always. You are courageously on the rise!
I wonder what it is about tennis today that sees so many young players decide to take a 'mental break' and move away from the tour. Osaka, Andreescu and now Anisimova have all done that over the the last few years. I grew up watching Serena, Venus, Hingis, Henin, Capriati, Clijsters and Davenport, and it just was unheard of back then.
Henin had problem, she quit multiple times, also stayed a very cold person to handle the media pressure bcz of issues created by her father and her divorce. How did Capriati handle it??? Her life has been a disaster after her ex filed complaint for domestic abuse, then her constant drug problem. Kim never achieved much and became mom at 23 and retired , hingis misbehaved and was called a trouble maker, she had cocaine problems too, then cleaned up and dominated the doubles game. Venus and Serena were very clear abt how much they played and they controlled the narrative, they had warning after the indian wells and knew they had to be careful. Also great close family were a blessing. So all of them struggled.
The mental health stuff usually starts when they stopped winning after some initial success. They don't have the mental resilience to cope with losing. Too much ego, self-doubt creeps in, negative thoughts take over. They start convincing themselves with things like "I'm not having fun anymore". It's why they say it's easier to get to the top than to stay there.
Really good... thanks for creating this 🙏. And the photography is oh just good
So proud of her!
Thank you for sharing your story.
Sweet, Bianca❤️! My fellow Gemini, you are strong, smart and kind❤.You have a bright future!
Very very complicité with her Mother and Father and Coco yes Coco beautiful dog 😊😅
Love her❤
Ditto!!!
It's not easy being a fan of Bibi but I can't help myself 😂🇨🇦❤️
its very easy
@@gregsj1 hey bro😅😅
@@azeezat8774 good to see you 💪
Andreescu isn't my favorite player but I know that she is one of the most empathetic and nicest players on tour.
Every Tennis Fan has a Favorite. You either Love Bianca or you don't. She won the US Open , Indian well which is considered a Premier event and Rogers cup , That was very special to her. She could easily Represent Romania but Tennis Canada stuck with her and supported her and she is a Humble person. She has always taken the time out to show her love and thank the Romanian people for their support. There are many players who ditched Canada to Represent other Countries. The word ditched sounds harsh but in Reality the Country you play for means a lot now , probably more than ever. Pride , Patriotism , Bianca supported her team when she was recovering from injury. Bianca Elevated the Sport of Tennis in Canada. Canada has The Worlds best up and comming Female Surfer Reppin Canada and she is only 15🤟Tennis Courts are springing up all over Canada. Canada is no longer just a Hockey nation. Bibi is Young and has a Bright Future in Front of her. Canada is Going to the BJK Finals I Hope to see GB there as well.
Well said. 😊
I had a feeling that after she won all those top level events, then disappeared, that it overwhelmed her, and she needed to draw back and gather herself, bc she had become scattered, mentally.
You articulated succinctly what I have felt so strongly about the current generation. I feel that this scattered state of mind has taken hold of most of civilization at the moment. I hope we rise above it soon. We will. Thank you for your comment.
@@miguelcunanan9855 thnx. but what is happening to civilization currently unfortunately will not get better; its actually the bk of revelation unfolding in front of our eyes. with evil pervading, seeping at an accelerated rate, into all venues of society, looks whats happening even in our elementary schools, the drag qeens and sxl grooming of kids, rampant political evil doings; the mass foisted poke on society that now turns out is totally ineffective and definitely not for the health of the masses, quite the opposite...
Better than the Netflix one
Bianca Andreescu...I like her style if play... And I don't think she has ever argued with umpire .2019 to 2023.should have been her rising years but unfortunately she is getting injuries. She need not go for difficult shots by which she brings upon her injuries. Steffi Graf should be her ideal .
This is cool!!! I'd say that this is the good consumerism of videos. These are the "Organic" type of videos 😂 It's the healthier gossip 😂 or the healthier procrastination 🤭 I love to see what these super-athletes are made of, their roots. So interesting and inspiring.
I never considered Andrescu as a person who lacked love for herself.
I have anxiety I was away from sports for two years I feel like that was my mental break
Nice mini docu clip.
❤❤❤
Ai gente que emoção, como ela eh linda, minha neném. 🥰🥰
😱
Ali the best Bianca ❤
she is a great actress, Kerber was right she is a drama queen, I like her though, her game is mazing when she is inspired
@@lanceb. She is definitely one of the most exiting players to watch, as I said, I like her and she plays amazing
@@lanceb. I have been heartbroken many times by Bibi, I’m also a fan, maybe my first comment could be interpreted like I’m a hater but sometimes I just feel disappointed 😀, I think she is a genius and watching her play is a joy
@@lanceb. I was just about to write this, she was another person today, really disappointing performance for no apparent reason, I also like Elena a lot so it was a sad day for me
@@lanceb. It is very strange because in both her previous matches she looked super motivated and pumped up with the wins and today she made it easy for Lesia, yes Lesia is in very good shape but 6-1, 6-1 ? damn Bibi, she gets us exited with one or 2 amazing matches and then this ☹
You’re right
Yea
I enjoy Bianca's crafty game but she's just too much of a drama queen for me. This vlog is a perfect example, too much "me me me I need to love myself it's not all about results". Unfortunately if you are a professional athlete, it IS all about the results. Fun and happiness comes from winning. Without that competitive fire, you won't go far. Ask Sabalenka what's most important to her, I'm pretty sure she'll say "winning". Same with Serena and Sharapova, who said in her book that she just wanted to beat everybody, even after winning 5 slams. Without that single minded focus and hunger, you won't be a multi slam champion. I pray Emma will never start talking about "mental health"🙏.
If the drama queen is having problems in her prime, then I wish her all the luck in the world in the future.

It has began with the books by Allan Kardec and continued in the books by Francisco C. Xavier, the greatest and more important medium/prophet of spirits of the last centuries...
her game is finished doesn't train right, conditioning is lacking..today u need to commit 10x more than just hitting the ball hard..She will be a ONE HIT WONDER and that was lucky too
omg she is still young and doing plastic surgery
what a soft generation!!
No,I don't believe you'll ever win another slam.Your focus is blurred,your ability to finish has left you. Your latest match at the Rome open, that is the real you.
You haven't been on the pro circuit for very long. But you have inherited the nickname" drama queen" for quite some time already
I know this isn't gonna go down very well with your fans but hey everyone has their opinion and I really don't think I'm that far off, if at all.And I'll go one step further. I used to be a fan but I haven't been in quite some time because I saw where this was heading. Your cherished win at the u s open was only because williams got sick and had to leave. But don't feel bad you've made more money than you need. So you can actually quit tennis now and feel the love for yourself and go write another book.
Please Bianca smile. You look absolutely beautiful when you smile. Try smiling on the court, have some fun.
Unfortunately you look absolutely miserable on court these days…….I pray for you….
OH POOR BABY ! YOGA AND YOGURT ! DALAI LAMA AND BUDA .
SHE IS LOST !
❤❤❤❤❤
