Professional career[edit]

2016-2017: WTA Tour debut in doubles[edit]

Korpatsch made her WTA Tour debut at the Swiss Open in the doubles draw, partnering Ekaterina Yashina.[1]

In December 2017, she won the singles title at the National German Championships.[2]

2020: Grand Slam debut[edit]

She made her Grand Slam main-draw debut at the French Open and the US Open.

2022: Top 100 debut[edit]

In June 2022, Korpatsch made her third major main-draw debut at the Wimbledon Championships where she lost to Heather Watson. Korpatsch had also entered the doubles competition but her partner, Harmony Tan, withdrew only an hour before her match prompting her to express, in a since-deleted social media post, her anger and disappointment at not being able to participate in the event on her debut.[3][4]

She won her first WTA 125 tournament title at the Budapest Open defeating Viktoriya Tomova in the final.[5]

She finished the year ranked No. 89 in the world.

2023-2024: Maiden WTA Tour title, new career high ranking[edit]

She entered the 2023 Wimbledon Championships as a lucky loser and recorded her first win at this Major over Carol Zhao.[6]

Ranked No. 105, she won her maiden WTA title at the 2023 Transylvania Open in Cluj Napoca with a win over Romanian Elena-Gabriela Ruse.[7] As a result, she climbed close to 35 positions up and reached a new career high at No. 71 on 23 October 2023.[8]
