Career
2021: WTA Tour and major debuts
At 20 years of age, Jones made her Grand Slam tournament debut at the Australian Open, after coming through qualifying,[3] losing in the first round to Shelby Rogers.[4] She had made her WTA Tour debut a couple of weeks earlier, at the Yarra Valley Classic, falling in the first round to 14th seed Nadia Podoroska.[5] Given a wildcard entry, Jones made her maiden main-draw appearance at Wimbledon, losing to 14th seed Coco Gauff in the first round.[6]
2023: First WTA Tour semifinal
Using her protected ranking, Jones reached her first tour semifinal defeating third seed Nuria Parrizas-Diaz,[7] Carol Zhao,[8] and sixth seed Laura Pigossi[9] at the Copa Colsanitas in Bogotá, Colombia, before losing to second seed and eventual champion, Tatjana Maria.[10]
2024: First WTA 125 final
Wins over Yulia Starodubtseva,[11] Anna Bondár,[12] Robin Montgomery[13] and Julia Riera[14] saw Jones reach her first WTA 125 final at the San Luis Open, which she lost to Nadia Podoroska in straight sets.[15] As a result she moved more than 50 positions back up in the rankings to No. 214 on 1 April.
Ranked No. 249, she reached her second career quarterfinal and first on grass as a wildcard entrant, at the Nottingham Open defeating eighth seed Caroline Dolehide[16] and Ashlyn Krueger.[17] She withdrew, before taking the court for her quarterfinal match against Emma Raducanu due to a shoulder injury.[18]
Jones received a wildcard entry for Wimbledon,[19] losing in three sets to Petra Martić in the first round.[20]
At the WTA 125 Zavarovalnica Sava Ljubljana, she overcame top seed Chloé Paquet,[21] Petra Marčinko[22] and Victoria Jiménez Kasintseva[23] to make it through to the semifinals, where her run was ended by eventual champion Jil Teichmann.[24]
2025: First WTA 125 title, US Open debut, top 100
Jones qualified for the Transylvania Open, but lost in the first round to fifth seed Kateřina Siniaková in three sets.[25] The following week, she reached the semifinals at the WTA 125 Cancún Tennis Open, with wins over Aliona Bolsova, Sachia Vickery and Iryna Shymanovich, before losing to eventual champion Emiliana Arango.[26] Remaining in Mexico the next week, Jones qualified for the Mérida Open and overcame Mayar Sherif in the first round.[27] She retired during the third set of her next match against fellow qualifier Emiliana Arango.[28]
In March, Jones won the W75 Vacaria Open in Brazil defeating Léolia Jeanjean in the final.[29][30] At the Copa Colsanitas in Colombia in the first week of April, she collapsed while serving in the third set of her first round match against Julia Riera and was taken off court in a wheelchair.[31] Jones qualified to make her WTA 1000 main-draw debut at the Madrid Open,[32] losing to Dayana Yastremska in the first round.[33]
Wins over Lea Bošković and Mai Hontama saw her reach the final qualifying round at the French Open, where her run was ended by Anastasiia Sobolieva.[34]
Moving onto the grass-court season, Jones entered the Nottingham Open as a wildcard and defeated Harriet Dart in the first round,[35] before losing to seventh seed Linda Nosková in her next match.[36] The following week at the Eastbourne Open, she again entered the main draw thanks to a wildcard and defeated qualifier Greet Minnen to reach the second round,[37] where she lost to Dayana Yastremska.[38] She was awarded a wildcard into the main draw debut at Wimbledon,[39] but lost to Yuliia Starodubtseva in the first round.[40]
Back on clay-courts later in July, Jones won her first WTA 125 title at Contrexéville, defeating Elsa Jacquemot in the final.[41][42] As a result, she reached a new career-high ranking of world No. 104 on 14 July 2025.[43] Two weeks later, Jones claimed her second WTA 125 title at the Palermo Ladies Open, going the entire tournament without dropping a set and defeating Anouk Koevermans in the final, a result which saw her enter the world's top-100 for the first time at No. 84 on 28 July 2025.[44][45]
Entering as top seed in qualifying at the US Open, Jones recorded straight sets wins over Viktória Hrunčáková,[46] Ekaterine Gorgodze[47] and Arianne Hartono to make it into the main draw at the event for the first time.[48] She lost to Eva Lys in the first round.[49]
In September at the SP Open in Brazil, she defeated second seed Solana Sierra in the quarterfinals to reach her second WTA Tour semifinal,[50] but lost to Janice Tjen.[51] As a result of her run at the tournament, Jones achieved a new career-high ranking of world No. 73, on 15 September 2025.[52]
2026: First top-15, major and WTA 1000 wins
Jones started her 2026 season at the ASB Classic in Auckland, New Zealand, where she recorded her first win against a top-15 ranked player, defeating world No. 15 and second seed Emma Navarro in the first round.[53] She then overcame qualifier Sinja Kraus in three sets to reach the quarterfinals.[54] Jones retired due to a thigh injury having lost the first set of her last eight match against Wang Xinyu.[55]
At the Australian Open, Jones gained direct entry into the main-draw of a major for the first time thanks to her ranking.[56] However, she was eliminated in the first round when she retired due to a gluteal injury in her right leg having lost the opening set against qualifier Linda Klimovičová.[57]
In March at the Miami Open, Jones defeated Venus Williams in the opening round to record her first WTA 1000 level win,[58] before retiring because of illness while trailing by a set and a break of serve against fifth seed Jessica Pegula in her next match.[59]
Jones gained direct entry via her ranking to make her main-draw debut at the French Open[60] and defeated Beatriz Haddad Maia in three sets for her first win at a Grand Slam tournament at her seventh attempt.[61] She lost to 27th seed Marie Bouzková in the second round.[62] At Wimbledon, she once again gained direct entry into the main-draw for the third major in a row, but lost to Diane Parry in the first round.[63]
Back on clay courts in July, Jones won her third WTA 125 title at the ATV Tennis Open in Rome, defeating Lucia Bronzetti in the final.[64][65] The following week as top seed she retained her title at the Palermo Ladies Open, overcoming Fiona Ferro in the final which was decided in a third set tiebreak.[66][67]
Personal life
She was born with a thumb and three fingers on each hand, and with only seven toes, as a result of a rare genetic condition, ectrodactyly–ectodermal dysplasia–cleft syndrome (EEC).[68][69]
