The Canadian was in Boston earlier in the week, returning from her trip to Jamaica for a few charity events. She attended the Massachusetts Conference for Women on behalf of the WTA and Hologic, the principal sponsor of the WTA Tour.
A thrilled Andreescu took to social media to reveal that she met the "amazing" Viola Davis.
"Also met this amazing woman," Bianca Andreescu wrote on Twitter, posting a picture with Davis.

After ending her 2022 season at the Billie Jean King Cup Finals in early November, Andreescu had a few days off after an intense few months on tour. During her trip to Jamaica with Canadian Open Toronto tournament director Karl Hale, Andreescu took part in a youth tennis clinic and also did a reading of her children's book 'Bibi's Got Game' with some kids at the event. The 22-year-old also enjoyed some vacation days in Jamaica.
Her last match of the season was against Viktorija Golubic in Canada's Billie Jean King Cup tie against Switzerland, which she lost. Andreescu's last WTA points event in 2022 was the Guadalajara Open in mid-October.
Bianca Andreescu has golden opportunity to climb the rankings at the start of 2023 season
While the pre-season mode is still on for Bianca Andreescu, the Canadian will look to prepare well for the start of the 2023 season. The World No. 45 has the opportunity to win a lot of points and climb back up the rankings in the first few months of 2023 as she has no points to defend until April.
The former World No. 4 kickstarted her 2022 season at the Porsche Tennis Grand Prix in April after a six-month layoff that began after the 2021 Indian Wells Open in October.
Bianca Andreescu has set a top-10 goal for herself in 2023 and will look to capitalize on the availability of points, starting with the Australian tennis summer, with the main goal of peaking at the Australian Open.
