In early 2024, she won two J300 titles: the Copa Barranquilla and the Astrid Bowl in Charleroi-Marcinelle.[10][11][12] She also reached the final of the Memorial Eduardo Ferrero Trophy in Villena.[13] Following her victory in Charleroi, she made her major debut at the French Open in both singles and doubles.[14] In singles, she reached the quarterfinals, before losing to fourth seed Tyra Caterina Grant.[15][16]

In January 2025, she won the J300 Traralgon Tennis International and reached the girls' singles quarterfinals of the Australian Open.[17][18][19] Later that year, she won the girls' singles title at the US Open. She was the first Belgian to win the title since Kirsten Flipkens in 2003.[20][21] The following month, she also won the year-ending ITF Junior Finals in Chengdu after defeating Kristina Penickova in the final.[22]

In August 2023, Vandromme reached the semifinals of the W15 event in Fleurus as a wildcard, upsetting third seed Chihiro Muramatsu and eighth seed Lian Tran in the process.[23]
