She made her Grand Slam debut at the 2020 US Open as a wildcard.

She made her WTA 1000 debut at the 2021 Miami Open after reaching the main draw having received a wildcard for the qualifying competition.[2]

On her debut at the 2021 French Open, she qualified for the main draw and recorded her first win at a major over Anna Blinkova.

2023-2024: First WTA 500 & 1000 wins, top 100

[edit]

She received a wildcard for the main draw at the 2023 Miami Open.[3]

At the WTA 1000 2023 Guadalajara Open, she defeated wildcard player Lya Isabel Fernández Olivares and 16th seed Karolína Plíšková for the second time in the season having prevailed also earlier at the 2023 Washington Open, [4] to reach the third round of a WTA 1000 for the first time.

Following her first round main-draw win as a qualifier at the 2024 Indian Wells Open over fellow American qualifier Robin Montgomery, she reached the top 100 in the rankings on 18 March 2024. She received a wildcard for the main draw at the Miami Open.

At the 2024 French Open, she entered the main draw as a lucky loser[5] and defeated Kayla Day for her second win at this major.

Notes

[edit]
  1. ^ a b c d The first Premier 5 event of the year has switched back and forth between the Dubai Tennis Championships and the Qatar Ladies Open since 2009 until 2024. Dubai was classified as a Premier 5 event from 2009 to 2011 before being succeeded by Doha for the 2012–2014 period. In 2015, Dubai regained its Premier 5 status while Doha was demoted to Premier status. The Premier 5 tournaments were reclassified as WTA 1000 tournaments in 2021.
