Taylor Townsend’s career

After experiencing a slump in her singles rankings, she again returned to the top-hundred rankings in 2017. The same year she reached her career-high ranking of World Number 64.

In 2016, she reached the US Open quarterfinals in the doubles domain.

In 2019, Townsend achieved her first-ever top-ten win. She defeated World Number four, Simona Halep, a two-time Grand Slam champion in the second round of the US Open 2019. Townsend saved match points against Halep to attain that victory. She then lost in the 4th round to eventual champion Bianca Andreescu, and the Round of 16 run is her best Grand Slam performance to date.

She has won numerous ITF titles in singles and doubles. Townsend won the Indian Wells 2018 doubles title, where she partnered with Yanina Wickmayer.

During the US Open juniors event in 2012, Townsend's request for a wildcard for the US Open main draw or the qualifying tournament was denied, about her body weight. During that time, Townsend was the top-ranked girl on the juniors circuit and she was surprised by USTA's decision.

The former tennis players Lindsay Davenport and Martina Navratilova criticized USTA's decision. Back then, USTA refused to take care of Townsend's expenses and she came to the tournament with her own expenses.

She reached the quarterfinals of the tournament. Then USTA agreed to fund Townsend's expenses as Patrick McEnroe spoke of a miscommunication.

With that controversy, Townsend split with her USTA coaches and began training under 1990 Wimbledon finalist, Zina Garrison.

Townsend's form dipped since the 2019 season, and she could not make her mark on the WTA Tour in 2020.
