Nikola Bartůňková (born 25 February 2006) is a Czech tennis player.[1] Bartůňková has a career-high singles ranking by the Women's Tennis Association (WTA) of 226, achieved on 8 April 2024, and a career-high WTA doubles ranking of 320, achieved on 14 August 2023.

Professional career

[edit]

In April 2021, at the 2021 İstanbul Cup, Bartůňková attempted her WTA Tour debut. She defeated world No. 152, Leonie Küng,[2] in the first round of qualifying, before losing to Anastasia Gasanova.[citation needed] She made her WTA Tour debut at the same tournament one year later, after having been handed a wildcard for the main draw, losing to Anastasia Potapova.[3] On 16 October 2023, Bartůňková won her first tour-level match when she defeated Dayana Yastremska in the first round of the 2023 Transylvania Open,[4][5] before losing in three hours to Ana Bogdan in the second round.[6][7]

In November 2024, Bartůňková was issued with a six month competition ban backdated to April 2024 for an anti-doping rule violation after testing positive for unintentional use of trimetazidine (TMZ) at two events in early 2024.[8] She had been provisionally suspended from May 2024 until the conclusion of the investigation.[9][10] The International Tennis Integrity Agency (ITIA) accepted that the source of the TMZ was a contaminated supplement for which she bore "no significant fault or negligence" for having ingested.[11]
