She has won two singles titles on the WTA Tour as well as seven singles titles and four doubles titles on the ITF Women's Circuit.

Boulter was ranked the No. 10 junior tennis player in the world in March 2014.[2] She is based at the Lawn Tennis Association's National Tennis Centre in Roehampton and was coached by Jeremy Bates, Nigel Sears and Mark Taylor.[3] She is currently coached by Biljana Vesilinovic.

Early life[edit]

Boulter was born in Woodhouse Eaves, Leicestershire,[4][5] the second of two children to David and Susan (née Gartshore) and has an older brother, Alexander. Boulter's mother, Susan, played tennis at county level and represented Great Britain a few times as a junior. Boulter's maternal grandmother, Gill Gartshore (née Dran), was also a county champion tennis player. Boulter herself started playing tennis aged 5,[3] and went on to represent Great Britain three years later, aged 8.[3] She has said that when she was younger, beating her older brother was a motivating factor. "We used to practise together at this local court down the road from our house. It was the only thing I could eventually beat him in, so that felt great."[6]

Boulter played the piano before her tennis career began to take precedence. She also has an interest in fashion and made an appearance in Vogue magazine in 2018.[7]

Personal life[edit]

She is a supporter of Leicester City Football Club.[8] Boulter is currently in a relationship with Australian tennis player Alex de Minaur.[9]

Boulter claimed her first senior doubles title at a $10k event in Sharm El Sheikh in November 2013.[13]

She also won the doubles title at the same event partnering Nina Stojanović, to whom she had lost a previous final in singles.[17] A month later, Boulter was given a wild card for Wimbledon qualifying, losing in the first round to Italian Alberta Brianti in a three-set match which lasted two-and-a-half hours.[18]
