Caroline Garcia has seven WTA Tour singles and six doubles championships, one WTA 125K series singles and doubles trophy, and one ITF Circuit singles and four doubles titles. She attained her best singles position of world No. 4 on September 10, 2018, and she peaked at No. 2 in the WTA doubles rankings on October 24, 2016, together with fellow Frenchwoman Kristina Mladenovic.

Why did Caroline Garcia retire?

Garcia confirmed during the off-season that she will not compete in the 2017 Fed Cup, stating that she wanted to focus on her singles career.

Garcia, representing France in the Fed Cup semifinals, lost her first match in straight sets against Kiki Bertens, then overcame Arantxa Rus.

France finally won the tie after the doubles match, in which Garcia teamed up with Mladenovic once more. Her next tournament was the Porsche Tennis Grand Prix, where she won another championship in doubles with Mladenovic after defeating top seeds Martina Hingis and Sania Mirza in the final, despite another first-round loss in singles against Monica Niculescu.
