Career

Kulichkova made her main-draw debut on the WTA Tour at the 2014 İstanbul Cup as a qualifier. Having defeated Nadiia Kichenok and Melinda Czink in the preliminary rounds, she lost to Shahar Pe'er in round one. Further first-round exits followed in Hong Kong and Seoul before once again coming through qualifying in Tianjin, where she defeated Sílvia Soler Espinosa, before losing to Peng Shuai in the second round.

Kulichkova made her major debut at the 2015 Wimbledon Championships by defeating Yanina Wickmayer (3–6, 7–6, 10–8) before losing to further quarterfinalist Madison Keys in the second round (4–6, 6–7). Then she reached semifinals in Bursa, and in Baku she was close to defeat, in the first round, seed No. 1 Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova, but she lost the final tie-breaker (6–3, 2–6, 6–7).

For the first time Kulichkova was nominated for the Russia Fed Cup team in 2016 in the World Group play-offs against Belarus, where she should have played the last dead rubber with Elena Vesnina, but she was replaced by Daria Kasatkina.

gollark: If you can get decent-looking stuff with a few iterations of prompt tweaking you're probably not going to pay another person to do it for you.
gollark: If they want art because it looks nice or they need to advertise something, say, then they'll care less about it being "real art" by humans.
gollark: If people care about art as a status signal or art for some philosophical reason they might want it to be human-made.
gollark: It does seem plausible that AI art might kill off much of commissioned art/graphic design.
gollark: We can assume that the AI runs faster than humans because people will only run training for a few months at most before they get bored and stop.
