She has career-high WTA rankings of No. 22 in singles and No. 56 in doubles, and as of June 2021 is the current No. 1 Slovene tennis player in singles. She has won one singles title and four doubles titles on the WTA Tour and two WTA 125 singles titles, as well as 17 singles and four doubles titles on the ITF Circuit.

Professional career

2014: Professional debut

Zidanšek made a perfect professional debut in 2014 at her home in Velenje, passing three qualifying rounds to go in the main draw and claim the first title on the pro-level still at the age of 16.[2]

2021: First Grand Slam singles semifinal, top 50 debut, first top-10 win, top 30 year-end ranking

She reached the quarterfinals and the semifinals of a Grand Slam event at the 2021 French Open for the first time in her career, after defeating Sorana Cîrstea in straight sets[3] and Paula Badosa in three sets,[4] making her the first Slovenian female player to accomplish this since the country achieved its independence in 1991. As a result, Zidanšek entered the top 50 for the first time in her career. She also scored her first top-ten win in the first round over No. 6 seed, Bianca Andreescu.[5] In the semifinal, Zidanšek was defeated in straight sets by Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova.

2022

Seeded 29th, she reached the Australian Open third round for the first time, but lost to Alizé Cornet.

Coaching

Zidanšek was coached by Zoran Krajnc until April 2021. In May 2021, her team, led by Marjan Čuk, signed with Pancho Alvariño from Spain.
