Watson made her professional tennis debut on the ITF Women's Circuit at The Jersey International in 2009. So far in her career Watson has won eight singles titles. This total includes three WTA Tour titles and five titles on the ITF Women's Circuit. She also has four doubles titles and the junior US Open. She has also won over 1.5 million US dollars in prize money.

Below is a list of career achievements and titles won by Heather Watson.

Career achievements

In 2012, Watson won her first WTA titles, both in singles and doubles. With doubles victories at the Bank of the West Classic and the Texas Tennis Open, as well as a singles victory at the HP Open, Watson became the first British woman to win a WTA title since Jo Durie in the 1990s. This also gave her career high rankings in both variations of competition.
