Playing Style & Strengths

Burrage is a classic baseline power hitter — a right-hander whose forehand and flat two-handed backhand are her primary weapons. Her serve is a solid first-strike tool, generating reliable pace and allowing her to open up patterns on the forehand. She plays aggressively from the baseline and is most comfortable dictating rallies rather than grinding defensively.

Hard courts have historically been her best surface. Her flat ball flight and willingness to drive the ball translate well to faster courts, and her run to a career-high ranking in 2023 marked her out as a top-100 talent before injuries intervened. Her comeback from surgery has added a layer of composure to her game, evident in the way she closed out the W100 Dubai title and her doubles performances under pressure in the Billie Jean King Cup.

Career Highlights

Burrage’s career highlight to date is the 2023 run that took her to a career-high WTA No. 85. Her most famous single-match win came at Eastbourne in 2022, where she beat Paula Badosa — then ranked world No. 4 — in the first round. She has one WTA doubles title, won at the 2023 Transylvania Open, and her biggest title since returning from injury is the W100 Dubai singles trophy. She is a core member of the Great Britain Billie Jean King Cup team.
