She was coached by Otto Buchholdt. She stayed initially with her godmother before finding a host family two years later. Maria Sharapova was her favourite player growing up. She is fluent in Georgian, Russian, and English.

Career

2012–2016: Juniors

As a junior Bolkvadze played in very few ITF Circuit events, instead concentrating on domestic competitions organised by the LTA and continental tournaments run by Tennis Europe. She won the 2013 Aegon Junior International in London, defeating Jodie Burrage in the final. At the European Junior Championships held in Moscow later that year she lost to Fanny Stollar in the round of 64.

She reached her only final on the ITF Junior World Tour as a qualifier at the G4 Nottingham event in April 2013, where she was runner-up to Freya Christie.

Bolkvadze was a finalist with American partner Caty McNally in the girls' doubles at the 2016 Wimbledon Championships, losing to Usue Maitane Arconada and Claire Liu in straight sets.

2019–2022: Major debut, career-high ranking

Ranked No. 202, Bolkvadze entered 2019 US Open qualifying and was drawn against eighth seed Heather Watson. After beating her in straight sets, she defeated in the second round Han Na-lae in three tight sets to set up a match against Xu Shilin. After another win she qualified for her first major main draw, and became the fourth Georgian to do so. In the first round, she defeated Bernarda Pera in three sets, before losing to third seed Karolína Plíšková. With her wins, she reached a new career-high of No. 156, on 9 September 2019.

2024: Two WTA 125 quarterfinals

Bolkvadze reached the quarterfinals at the WTA 125 Polish Open in July with wins over top seed Rebecca Šramková and wildcard entrant Gina Feistel. She lost to fifth seed Maya Joint in the last eight.

The following month Bolkvadze repeated her performance by making it through to another WTA 125 quarterfinal, this time at the Barranquilla Open in Columbia, where she defeated Maria Timofeeva and eighth seed Elsa Jacquemot, before losing to fourth seed and eventual champion, Nadia Podoroska.

2026: Wimbledon debut and first win

Ranked No. 545 and using protected ranking, following a series of injuries including two torn hamstrings and a hand problem which required surgery, Bolkvadze qualified to make her main-draw debut at Wimbledon and defeated Ajla Tomljanović, becoming the second woman representing Georgia to win a match at Wimbledon, after Anna Tatishvili. She lost to fellow qualifier Ashlyn Krueger in the second round.
