Career

edit

2020–2021: ITF Circuit titles

edit

In December 2020, Bouzas Maneiro reached her first professional singles final at the $15k Torneo Internacional de Tenis Ciudad Raqueta in Madrid, but was defeated by Conny Perrin.[6][7] The following month, in January 2021, she won her maiden singles title at the $15k event in Cairo, defeating Chantal Škamlová in the final.[8] In March 2021, she reached the final of the $15k Internationaux de Tennis Féminin in Gonesse, but lost to Marine Partaud.[9] At the $15k Open du Havre in Le Havre, she reached the quarterfinals, eventually losing to Léolia Jeanjean.[10] In June 2021, she won another title at the $15k event in Heraklion and reached the final of the $25k Ciudad Raqueta event in Madrid.

2022–2023: Major and United Cup debuts

edit

In February 2022, she won the $15k event in Villena, defeating Ashley Lahey in the final.[11] A month later, she won her second title of the year at the $15k Vilas Academy Calvià Open in Palma Nova.[12] In May, she reached the final of the $25k event in Platja d'Aro, but lost to compatriot Guiomar Maristany.[13] At the end of June, she won the bronze medal in singles and a gold medal in doubles at the Mediterranean Games. Partnering Maristany, they defeated the Maltese pair of Francesca Curmi and Elaine Genovese to clinch the medal.[14]

In 2023, she competed for Spain as a substitute at the United Cup, and was victorious on her debut over Olivia Gadecki.[15] She made her major debut at the Wimbledon Championships by qualifying for the main draw.[16]

2024: WTA 125 title and 1000 debut, top 10 win, two major third rounds

edit

In March, she won her maiden WTA 125 title at the Antalya Challenger.[17] The following month, she reached the final of the Zaragoza Open, but lost to Moyuka Uchijima. She subsequently made her WTA top 100 debut on 15 April 2024, reaching a new career-high ranking of world No. 90.[18] She made her WTA 1000 main-draw debut, after qualifying for the Madrid Open where she defeated compatriot Paula Badosa in the first round for her first win at this level.[19][20]

At Wimbledon, Bouzas Maneiro reached the third round of a major for the first time in her career, after upsetting defending champion Markéta Vondroušová in straight sets,[21][22] her first top 10 win, and defeating compatriot Cristina Bucșa.[5][23] Her victory over Vondroušová marked the first time since 1994 that the defending women's Wimbledon champion was eliminated in the first round.[24] She exited the tournament after retiring due to a back injury while trailing in her round three match against eventual champion Barbora Krejčíková.[25]

She also made her debut at the Cincinnati Open when she defeated fellow lucky loser Lucia Bronzetti [26] before losing to Elina Svitolina.[27]

Bouzas Maneiro reached another major third round at the US Open with wins over Petra Martić[28] and 31st seed Katie Boulter.[29] Her run was ended by sixth seed Jessica Pegula.[30]
