Biography

Donna Vekic is a Croatian professional tennis player.

Vekic is an aggressive baseliner. She possesses a powerful first serve that is capable of producing aces, but is somewhat inaccurate, meaning that she has first serve percentages between 50 and 60 percent. She makes up for this with a reliable second serve, so that double faults are uncommon. Her groundstrokes are powerful, allowing her to dictate play from the baseline, and her forehand, which is hit flat and with lots of pace, is her greatest asset. She is a quick mover, with impressive speed and footwork. Vekic's fast and quick style of play is suited to fast hard and grass courts, where the vast majority of her success has taken place.

She has won four singles titles on the WTA Tour: the 2014 Malaysian Open, the 2017 Nottingham Open, Courmayeur in 2021, and the 2023 Monterrey Open . She has won five singles titles and one doubles title on the ITF Women's Circuit. Her best performance in a Grand Slam singles event was reaching the quarterfinals at the 2019 US Open and at the Australian Open 2023. On 4 November 2019, she achieved No. 19 in the WTA rankings.

Vekic is a member of the Croatia Fed Cup team. In February 2012, she played three rubbers at the tournament, including helping her country to a 2-0 win over Bosnia and Herzegovina.
