Early life
Andreescu was born in Mississauga but now lives in Toronto and is of Romanian descent.[4] Her middle name—Vanessa—was inspired by actress and singer Vanessa Williams.[1] She moved to her parents' native country of Romania as a child and started playing tennis there at age seven.[4] Andreescu and her family moved back to Canada where she trained at the Ontario Racquet Club in Mississauga.[4] When she was eleven years old, she joined Tennis Canada's National Training Program in Toronto, and that’s when she started getting more serious about her career. Her favourite players are Simona Halep and Kim Clijsters.[4] Due to the time spent on court, Andreescu is completing her high school diploma online at Bill Crothers Secondary School in Toronto.[5]
