She broke onto the main tour last spring and has reached at least the quarterfinals 11 times in the last 15 months, primarily at WTA 1000 and higher-level events. Her final success rate stands at 2:1. Last year, she won a smaller clay event in Romania after elina Avanesjan retired. She also defeated Tauson in Dubai this February.
