Career

2019-2020: WTA Tour and Grand Slam debut

Rakhimova made her WTA Tour main-draw debut at the 2019 Baltic Open, where she received a wildcard for the singles tournament.[1]

She made her Grand Slam debut as a qualifier at the 2020 French Open, and defeated Shelby Rogers in the first round.

2021: US Open debut and third round, two doubles titles and top 100 debut

Despite losing to 11th seed Kristýna Plíšková, Rakhimova entered the US Open as a lucky loser by beating Lizette Cabrera (4-6, 6-4, 6-2), then Usue Maitane Arconada (6-4, 3-6, 6-1) in the qualifying rounds. She then beat Kristina Mladenovic in the first round (2-6, 6-2, 6-3), swept 32nd seed Ekaterina Alexandrova aside (6-4, 6-1), before falling to eighth seed Barbora Krejčíková (4-6, 2-6). This was her first third-round showing at a Grand Slam championship in her career.

She won her second doubles title at the 2021 Upper Austria Ladies Linz partnering Natela Dzalamidze. As a result, she moved 26 positions up into the top 70 in doubles.

Notes
  1. The first Premier 5 event of the year has switched back and forth between the Dubai Tennis Championships and the Qatar Open since 2009. Dubai was classified as a Premier 5 event from 2009–2011 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.
