Turned professional in 2006

She took up tennis at age six in Liepaja, Latvia. She moved to Germany at age 14 to train at Nikola Pilic's tennis academy in Munich. (wtatennis.com, 2021; nytimes.com, 05 Sep 2018)

Her grandmother signed her up for tennis as she wanted her to get involved in a sport and had some friends who played tennis. Her first coach Edgars Ernestsons was also influential in her developing a love for the sport. "A great coach. It's so important to show the kids this love of tennis, and that's what we had, and so I loved it. Until age 14, I practised in the school gyms on the wood. Riga [Latvia] has some good facilities with indoor clay and hard courts, but I was always in Liepaja. Indoors on wood is a different style of play because it was so fast, and there were lots of bad bounces." (wtatennis.com, 2021; nytimes.com, 05 Sep 2018)

BREAK FROM SPORT
In 2013 she took more than 18 months away from competitive tennis due to injuries. During her hiatus she lived in Vienna, Austria, coaching at the Better Tennis Academy during the week and taking university classes on the weekends, before returning to competition in early 2015. "I didn't miss much. Of course you miss the competition. You miss getting on the court, playing matches, feeling the adrenaline when you play big points. But I think I needed time off. At that time I was done with tennis. I also felt like I wanted to study and to lead more of a normal life." (nytimes.com, 05 Sep 2018; tennishead.net, 26 Jul 2019)
