Early life

Rajecki was raised in Nottingham.[2] She won the British Tour Masters in 2022.[3]

College years

Rajecki began playing for the Wolfpack at North Carolina State University in 2020–21.[4] In her junior year in 2022–23, she set the program record of singles wins in a season with 40 wins and 11 losses.[4] She contributed to NC State winning their first ACC conference title in 2023, defeating Carson Tanguilig of North Carolina in the final.[5] At the 2023 NCAA Championships, where NC State lost to North Carolina in the team final, Rajecki beat No. 1 seed, Fiona Crawley of North Carolina, in the singles bracket, with her run to the semifinals enough to secure All-American honours for herself.[6] She was ranked No. 2 nationally in singles at the end of her senior year in 2024, being named the ITA National Senior Player of the Year, and again reached the semifinals of the NCAA singles tournament.[4]

Professional

Ranked No. 884, Rajecki reached her first WTA Tour main draw at the grass-court 2024 Birmingham Classic defeating Wang Yafan and Katie Volynets in the qualifying rounds.[7] She lost her first-round match to former NC State teammate, Diana Shnaider.[8][9][10] Partnering with Mimi Xu, Rajecki won the doubles title at the W100 Shrewsbury event in October 2024, defeating fellow Britons Hannah Klugman and Ranah Stoiber in the final.[11]

Teaming with Kayla Cross, she won her first WTA 125 doubles title at the 2025 Abierto Tampico, defeating Weronika Falkowska and Kristina Novak in the final.[12][13]
