After turning pro in 2003, the Serbian won her first WTA title at Canberra by beating Hungarian Melinda Czink. Ana also was the losing finalist at the Junior Wimbledon tournament in 2004. However, her major breakthrough would come in 2006. She beat players like Jelena Jankovic and Dinara Safina to end 2006 as world number 14.
Later on, Ana’s advance to the Roland Garros final in 2008, made her reach the peak of the WTA rankings. She would go on to win her first and only Grand Slam title too defeating Dinara Safina 6-4, 6-3. Her career nose-dived soon after and even though she made commendable comebacks in 2012 and 2014, she wasn’t the player she once was.
