LONDON, June 29 (Reuters) - ⁠French Open champion Mirra Andreeva ⁠was given a good grasscourt workout ‌on Monday before beating 59th-ranked Pole Magda Linette 7-5 6-4 in the first round at Wimbledon.

The ​19-year-old Russian fifth seed, who ⁠triumphed at Roland ⁠Garros this month, used her big serve ⁠to ‌great effect with eight aces but she also produced seven ⁠double faults as she tried to ​outgun the ‌experienced Linette, 15 years her senior.
