Career
Kate?ina Siniaková
Siniaková was born to a Czech mother and Russian father Dmitry, a former boxer and her coach.[1] She began playing on the ITF Women's Circuit in the Czech Republic in June 2012. There in a doubles competition, she won her first ITF title.
2012-2016
She was ranked the world No. 2 junior tennis player in December 2012.[2] With fellow Czech Barbora Krej?íková, she won the girls' doubles titles at the French Open, at Wimbledon and the US Open in 2013.
Kate?ina Siniaková won her first WTA singles title at Shenzhen Open. The tournament began by defeating Peng Shuai in the first round in two sets. In the second, she edged world No. 4, Simona Halep, in three sets (7-5 in the third) and claimed first win over a top-10 player. Her run continued by beating qualifier Nina Stojanovic and world No. 9, Johanna Konta, in three sets. In the final, she defeated Alison Riske and won first WTA title.
At Melbourne, she lost to Julia Görges in the first round. Then she moved to Taiwan Open where she edged Galina Voskoboeva in the first round in three sets, but then lost easily to Peng Shuai. In February, she was nominated to the Fed Cup team for the first time by the captain Petr Pála as she was the third best ranked woman Czech tennis player (considering Petra Kvitová's injury) after Karolína Plí?ková and Barbora Strýcová. Anyway, the captain announced eventually that Siniaková will first of all collect experience.[3]
After a little bit of struggling in tournaments not being able to win more than two matches in a row, she got back to Båstad for Swedish Open, where she reached her first career final in previous year. She eventually clinched her second career WTA title here, beating three top-20 players, including a huge upset of top-seed and former world No. 1, Caroline Wozniacki, in straight sets in the final.[4] She faced some struggles the rest of the year, only recording four wins in thirteen matches. She finished the year ranked No. 49, the exact same ranking as the previous year.
2018: World No. 1 in doubles
In Shenzhen, Siniaková lost to Simona Halep in the final,[5] after defeating Maria Sharapova in the semifinals.[6] She also played in the doubles final alongside Barbora Krej?íková, they lost to Halep and Begu.
