She began to play in local tennis groups in Southampton\u2019s David Lloyd until coaches saw her potential to take her on with individual lessons. She moved to Marbella, Spain at the age of 13 to further her tennis career and to Barcelona at 19. She turned pro at the age of 16.In 2020, Taylor opened up about her struggles with her mental health issues such as anxiety and depression. As of 2022, she is taking an indefinite break from tennis, working as a freelance artist and pursuing a degree at the University of the Arts London.Juniors[edit]At the 2012 ‘British Junior National Championships’ Taylor became Under-14 girls’ singles winner beating Katie Swan in the final 7\u20136(7), 6\u20133.[4] Later in the year she was runner-up at the world’s most prestigious junior tournament Junior Orange Bowl losing to Maia Lumsden 6\u20133, 7\u20135,[5] both players having been semifinalists in that year’s European equivalent the Petits As.

She reached the quarterfinals[10] but had to retire in the following match against Kayla Day.[11] Taylor contracted a bacterial infection called leptospirosis, which would keep her from playing tennis for a month. Initially, she was thought to have been poisoned while her bag was left unoccupied, however, medical experts declared this to be highly unlikely.[12][13][14][15][16][17] Police later concluded that there was no evidence of deliberate poisoning.[18]Taylor recovered sufficiently to reach three consecutive ITF finals at Heraklion, Greece in October and November although failing to win any.2017[edit]In May, as the sixth seed, she won her first 25k tournament, beating third seed Danielle Lao in the final in straight sets.[19] Wimbledon granted wild card entries to her[20] in both the singles and the doubles (partnering Freya Christie) qualifying draws, losing both in the first round.[21] In November she began working with coaches Xavier Budo and David Sunyer, which she credits with changing her mindset, leading to her most successful period to date.[22]2018[edit]After three ITF title wins in February[23] and March, Taylor broke into the top 200 rankings for the first time.[24] She was subsequently chosen to represent Great Britain in the Fed Cup team alongside Johanna Konta, Heather Watson and Anna Smith for the World Group II play-off tie in Japan,[22] however she did not play in any of the matches.[25]Taylor made her WTA Tour main-draw debut at the 2018 Nottingham Open. As a wild-card entry, she lost in the first round to the defending champion Donna Veki\u0107, in three sets.[26] In her first appearance in the main draw at Wimbledon, she lost to Eugenie Bouchard in three sets.Performance timelines[edit]KeyW\u00a0F\u00a0SFQF#RRRQ#P#DNQAZ#POGSBNMSNTIPNH(W) winner; (F) finalist; (SF) semifinalist; (QF) quarterfinalist; (#R) rounds 4, 3, 2, 1; (RR) round-robin stage; (Q#) qualification round; (P#) preliminary round; (DNQ) did not qualify; (A) absent; (Z#) Davis\/Fed Cup Zonal Group (with number indication) or (PO) play-off; (G) gold, (S) silver or (B) bronze Olympic\/Paralympic medal; (NMS) not a Masters tournament; (NTI) not a Tier I tournament; (P) postponed; (NH) not held; (SR) strike rate (events won \/ competed); (W\u2013L) win\u2013loss record.To avoid confusion and double counting, these charts are updated at the conclusion of a tournament or when the player’s participation has ended.Only main-draw results in WTA Tour, Grand Slam tournaments, Fed Cup\/Billie Jean King Cup and Olympic Games are included in win\u2013loss records.[27]Singles[edit]Current after the 2021 Italian Open.ITF Finals[edit]Singles: 12 (6 titles, 6 runner\u2013ups)[edit]Legend$100,000 tournaments$80,000 tournaments$60,000 tournaments$25,000 tournaments$15,000\/$10,000 tournamentsFinals by surfaceHard (4\u20135)Clay (1\u20130)Grass (1\u20130)Carpet (0\u20130)ResultW\u2013L\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Date\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0TournamentTierSurfaceOpponentScoreWin1\u20130Nov 2015ITF Stellenbosch, South Africa10,000Clay Naomi Totka4\u20136, 6\u20132, 6\u20131Loss1\u20131Oct 2016ITF Heraklion, Greece10,000Hard Valeria Savinykh2\u20136, 1\u20134 ret.Loss1\u20132Nov 2016ITF Heraklion, Greece10,000Hard Ioana Pietroiu3\u20136, 6\u20132, 2\u20136Loss1\u20133Nov 2016ITF Heraklion, Greece10,000Hard Raluca \u0218erban4\u20136, 5\u20137Win2\u20133May 2017ITF Changwon, South Korea25,000Hard Danielle Lao6\u20132, 6\u20132Win3\u20133Dec 2017ITF Navi Mumbai, India25,000Hard Di\u0101na Marcink\u0113vi\u010da4\u20136, 7\u20136(9\u20137), 6\u20133Win4\u20133Feb 2018ITF Launceston, Australia25,000Hard Asia Muhammad6\u20133, 6\u20134Win5\u20133Feb 2018ITF Perth, Australia25,000Hard Myrtille Georges6\u20132, 7\u20135Win6\u20133Mar 2018ITF Mildura, Australia25,000Grass Sh\u00e9razad Reix6\u20130, 6\u20133Loss6\u20134Mar 2019W15 Nishi-Tama, Japan25,000Hard Daria Lopatetska6\u20137  (4\u20137) , 6\u20132, 3\u20136Loss6\u20135Oct 2019W15 Antalya, Turkey15,000Hard Magdalena Pantuckova3\u20136, 1\u20136Loss6\u20136Oct 2019W15 Antalya, Turkey15,000Hard Daria Kruzhkova0\u20136, 0\u20133 ret.Doubles: 5 (3 titles, 2 runner\u2013ups)[edit]Legend$100,000 tournaments$80,000 tournaments$60,000 tournaments$25,000 tournaments$15,000\/$10,000 tournamentsFinals by surfaceHard (2\u20130)Clay (0\u20131)Grass (1\u20130)Carpet (0\u20131)ResultW\u2013L\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Date\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0TournamentTierSurfacePartnerOpponentsScoreWin1\u20130May 2016ITF Monz\u00f3n, Spain10,000Hard Alice Bacqui\u00e9 Estrella Cabeza Candela  Cristina S\u00e1nchez-Quintanar6\u20131, 6\u20131Loss1\u20131Jul 2017ITF Don Benito, Spain15,000Carpet Mia Eklund Maria Masini  Olga Parres Azcoitia3\u20136, 3\u20136Win2\u20131Mar 2018ITF Mildura, Australia25,000Grass Katy Dunne Alexandra Bozovic Olivia Tjandramulia5\u20137, 7\u20136(7\u20134), [10\u20135]Loss2\u20132Sep 2019W25 Marbella, Spain25,000Clay Arantxa Rus Andrea L\u00e1zaro Garc\u00eda Irene Burillo Escorihuela7\u20135, 4\u20136, [4\u201310]Win3\u20132Oct 2019W15 Antalya, Turkey15,000Hard Mira Antonitsch Viktoriia Dema  Noa Liauw A Fong6\u20134, 6\u20137  (5\u20137) , [10\u20133]References[edit]^ “ITF Player Profile: Gabriella Taylor”. itftennis.com.
