Olga Danilović (Serbian Cyrillic: Олга Даниловић, pronounced [ôːlga danǐːloʋitɕ]; born 23 January 2001) is a Serbian tennis player.

In July 2018, Danilović won her first career WTA singles title in Moscow by beating Anastasia Potapova in the final. She has won four singles and one doubles title on the ITF circuit in her career. On 30 July 2018, she reached her best singles ranking of world No. 112. On 16 July 2018, she peaked at No. 540 in the doubles rankings.

Since 2016, her mentor is former world No. 2 Alex Corretja,[2] while her coach (since 2017) is Juan Lizariturry.[1] Danilović was coached in the past by Tatjana Ječmenica (in two stints – before late 2015[3] and in 2016)[4] and Denis Bejtulahi (in 2017).[5]

Playing for Serbia in the Fed Cup, Danilović has a win–loss record of 3–3.

Career

Juniors

Danilović has won three Junior Grand Slam doubles titles – 2016 French Open with Paula Arias Manjón, 2017 Wimbledon with Kaja Juvan and 2017 US Open with Marta Kostyuk.

2018: First WTA title, Fed Cup Heart Award

Danilović made her Fed Cup debut in February 2018 in Group I of Fed Cup Europe/Africa Zone, winning all three singles matches, including a 6–2, 6–4 win over world No. 15 Anastasija Sevastova in the promotional play-offs.[6] The courageous performances for the national team earned Danilović a Fed Cup Heart Award and a cheque of $1,000 to be donated to a charity,[7] which she chose to donate to University Children's Hospital in Belgrade.[8]

In July, she won her first career WTA singles title in Moscow, defeating Anastasia Potapova in the final, 7–5, 6–7(1–7), 6–4. Danilović became the first player born in the 3rd millennium (after 2000) to win a WTA Tour singles title. She also became the first lucky loser in the history of the WTA Tour to win the title. This was the first WTA Tour final between two players under 18 since Tatiana Golovin and Nicole Vaidišová played in the final of the 2005 AIG Japan Open Tennis Championships.

Personal

Olga's father is Serbian former basketball player Predrag Danilović, while her mother, Svetlana (née Radošević), is a sports reporter for Radio Television of Serbia.
