The former World No. 7, Danielle Collins, has recently revealed the winning formula of the Italian duo, Sara Errani and Andrea Vavassori, while hilariously highlighting their training session. At the 2025 US Open mixed doubles championships, Collins reached the semi-final round with Christian Harrison.
The St. Petersburg, Florida, native has clinched four singles titles and one doubles title throughout her career. Her Cincinnati Open tournament run concluded with a round of 128 loss to the current No.1 in doubles, Taylor Townsend. At the US Open mixed doubles event, Danielle Collins and Christian Harrison faced defeat from Sara Errani and Andrea Vavassori, who later defended their mixed doubles title after beating Iga Swiatek and Casper Ruud with a set score of 6-3, 5-7, 10-6.
Through her recent Instagram story, Collins humorously shared her thoughts on the training session of the Italian team while emphasizing their impressive reflexes.
“If anyone wants to know @andrevavassori and @saraerrani87 secret to having the best reflexes on tour it’s this. Their coach packs a table tennis paddle and 85 ping balls and fires them all over the place before they go on. Epic 🤣”
At the 2025 Canadian Open, Danielle Collins faced defeat from the current No. 3, Coco Gauff, in the round of 64. Her season’s notable result came in the Strasbourg Open, where she reached the semi-final; however, her run came to an end after a defeat from former World No. 12, Russian player Liudmila Samsonova.
At the 2025 Wimbledon Championships, she reached the third round, losing to the eventual champion, Iga Swiatek.
Danielle Collins will conclude her 2025 season after the US Open tournament
Danielle Collins has been dealing with a back injury, which has affected her current season. Through her recent Instagram post, the talented player expressed her thoughts on the conclusion of her 2025 season.
“On the mend 💚 New York soon for my last event of the year🎾🗽”
​
According to Tennis World USA, Collins also shed light on her injury via her Instagram story, due to which she won’t be able to compete beyond the 2025 US Open.
“Anyone who has a herniated disc knows my pain. It’s no surprise the keyboard warriors can’t understand or relate, as they’ve been too busy sitting on a**es judging people who show up and and try to give it their best even on days that suck. Thank you to everyone who has been praying for my injury.”
In the first round of her US Open run, Collins will lock horns with former World No. 49, Romanian player, Jaqueline Cristian.
