Patricia Maria Țig

[2] Țig made her WTA Tour debut at the Bucharest Open where she received a wildcard into the singles main draw, and she won to Sílvia Soler Espinosa (retired at 6–4, 3–1) in the first round, before losing 0–6, 2–6 to Polona Hercog.

In the doubles competition, paired to co-national Andreea Mitu, Țig reached her first WTA final, but they lost.

After a period of struggling with her performances in the second half of 2017 season, she decided to focus on her health, citing back pain as the main source of discomfort.

[4][5] Țig returned to action in April 2019, after healing her injuries and giving birth to daughter Sofia in November 2018.

She retired or gave her opponent a walkover in three of the first four, as the inactivity led to injuries – including a recurrence of the knee issue.

[6] At the Baltic Open, where she used her protected ranking, she defeated Ankita Raina and Anhelina Kalinina, before losing to Anastasia Potapova.

[citation needed] Țig won the Karlsruhe Open, a WTA 125 tournament, defeating Alison Van Uytvanck and advancing back in the top 150, to No.

[1] Țig came back at the 2023 Hobart International and at the 2023 Australian Open using protected ranking after a year and a half of inactivity on the WTA tour (since Wimbledon 2021).

[citation needed] Țig received a wildcard for the doubles competition at the 2025 Transylvania Open partnering Briana Szabó.

[10] Only main-draw results in WTA Tour, Grand Slam tournaments, Fed Cup/Billie Jean King Cup and Olympic Games are included in win–loss records.

Țig met her future husband Răzvan Sabău when she began coming to his academy for training around 2015.

[12] Under his guidance, Tig made tremendous progress despite recurring injuries, which forced her out of the court once for nearly two years in the late 2010s.
