    On the ITF Junior Circuit, Zavatska had a career-high ranking of No. 13, achieved on 18 July 2016. She reached the quarterfinals of the 2016 French Open girls' singles, losing to eventual champion Rebeka Masarova.[citation needed]

    Professional

    Zavatska made her WTA Tour main-draw debut at the 2017 Malaysian Open, where she was given a wildcard but lost in the first round to Magda Linette.[2]

    She won her first WTA Tour match at the 2018 Morocco Open, where she beat wildcard Diae El Jardi in straight sets.[3] She went on to win her second-round match in three sets against Alexandra Dulgheru.[4]

    Zavatska made her Grand Slam tournament main-draw debut at the 2020 US Open,[5] losing to 11th seed Elena Rybakina in straight sets.[6]

    At the 2020 French Open, which had been moved to September due to the COVID-19 pandemic, she lost in the first round to fifth seed Kiki Bertens in a match that went to a deciding set, during which she ran out of rackets due to broken strings and had to borrow one from her coach.[7][8]

    Zavatska qualified for the 2021 French Open, but went out in the opening round to 17th seed Maria Sakkari.[9]

    At the 2024 Swedish Open, Zavatska reached the quarterfinals with wins over Yuliia Starodubtseva[10] and fourth seed Anna Karolína Schmiedlová,[11] before losing to Louisa Chirico.[12]

    Partnering with Tara Würth, she was runner-up in the doubles at the 2024 WTA 125 Cali Open, losing to top seeds Veronika Erjavec and Kristina Mladenovic in the final.[13]

    In Ukraine's 2024 Billie Jean King Cup play-offs tie against Austria, Zavatska defeated Julia Grabher to square the contest at 2–2, before partnering with Nadiia Kichenok to overcome Sinja Kraus and Tamira Paszek in the deciding doubles match.[14][15]

    Notes

    1. ^ The first Premier 5 event of the year has switched back and forth between the Dubai Tennis Championships and the Qatar Ladies Open since 2009. Dubai was classified as a Premier 5 event from 2009 to 2011 before being succeeded by Doha for the 2012–2014 period. In 2015, Dubai regained its Premier 5 status while Doha was demoted to Premier status. The Premier 5 tournaments were reclassified as WTA 1000 tournaments in 2021.
