Career
Siniaková who was born in Hradec Králové to a Czech mother and a Russian father, Dmitry, a former boxer and her coach,[1] began playing on the ITF Women's Circuit in June 2012. It was then, she won her first ITF title in a doubles competition in the Czech Republic.
2012–2016
She was ranked the No. 2 junior tennis player in the world in December 2012.[2] In 2013, she won the French Open girls' doubles, the Wimbledon girls' doubles and the US Open girls' doubles titles with fellow Czech Barbora Krejčíková.
In March 2013, Siniaková made her WTA tour debut in the qualifying draw of the Sony Open Tennis. She defeated Mandy Minella and Alexa Glatch to qualify for the main draw, but lost a three-set encounter with Garbiñe Muguruza in the first round.
2017: First WTA titles
Kateřina Siniaková won her first WTA singles title at Shenzhen Open. The tournament began by defeating Peng Shuai in the first round in two sets.

Her run continued by beating qualifier Nina Stojanovic and world No. 9 Johanna Konta in three sets. In the final she defeated Alison Riske 6–3, 6–4 and won first WTA title.
From Shenzhen she moved to Melbourne but lost to Julia Görges in the first round. Then she moved to Taiwan Open. In the first round she edged Galina Voskoboeva 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 Plíšková and Barbora Strýcová. Anyway, the captain announced eventually that Siniaková will first of all collect experience.[3]
