She made her Grand Slam main draw debut at Wimbledon as a wildcard entrant, losing in the first match against former world No. 1 Karolina Plíšková in three sets.[5][6] At an ITF event in Norway, she won another title; Paula Badosa retired in the final.
2019: Wimbledon third round, Australian and US Open debuts
At the US Open, she secured her first top-10 win, beating Daria Kasatkina in the first round in three sets.[29][30] She exited the tournament in the second round, losing to Dalma Gálfi in straight sets.[31] In November, Dart defeated world No. 13, Paula Badosa, to help Great Britain reach the semifinals of the Billie Jean King Cup.[32] Despite Dart overcoming Ajla Tomljanović, Great Britain lost in the last four to Australia 2–1.[33]
2023: Back-to-back quarterfinals and national team success
In June, Dart reached successive WTA Tour quarterfinals, with runs to the last eight at the grass court events in Nottingham, where she lost to eventual champion Katie Boulter,[34] and Birmingham, when it was Anastasia Potapova who ended her challenge.[35] However, she could not continue her good form on the lawns of Wimbledon later that month as she went out in the first round of her home Grand Slam losing 7–6, 0–6, 4–6 to Diane Parry.[36]
In November, Dart secured the winning point for Great Britain in their 3–1 Billie Jean King Cup play-off victory against Sweden at the Copper Box Arena in London with a 7–5, 6–2 win over Caijsa Hennemann, after being brought into the team as a late replacement for Jodie Burrage.[37]
2024: First WTA Tour semifinal, second Wimbledon third round
In April, Dart was selected to play for Great Britain against France in 2024 Billie Jean King Cup qualifying round,[40] but was not required to play as Emma Raducanu and Katie Boulter won the three matches required to qualify for the finals.[41] Dart then won two rounds in qualifying for the Madrid Open to reach the main draw.[42]
Dart retired due to cramp in her final qualifying match at the Canadian Open but was given a place in the main draw as a lucky loser only to be defeated in the first round by Diana Shnaider, in three sets.[48]
She made it through qualifying at the Cincinnati Open but lost in the first round to Yulia Putintseva.[49] Playing with Ellen Perez, Dart reached the semifinals of the doubles recording a win over second seeds Hsieh Su-wei and Elise Mertens on the way to the last four where they lost to third seeds Asia Muhammad and Erin Routliffe. This was her first appearance in a WTA 1000 doubles semifinal.[50]
Having gained automatic qualification into the main draw through her ranking, Dart defeated Chloé Paquet in the first round at the US Open[51] before losing to 19th seed Marta Kostyuk in round two.[52] Despite the defeat, Dart moved into the top 70 in the singles rankings.[53] Playing with Diane Parry in the doubles, she reached the round of 16 after a three-set win over Olympic champions and sixth seeds, Sara Errani and Jasmine Paolini, in the second round.[54] They lost to tenth seeds Chan Hao-ching and Veronika Kudermetova.[55]
