Tennis career
She started playing tennis at the age of eight.[4]

Thandi has won four doubles titles and one singles title on the ITF Women's Circuit- the maiden singles title in $25,000 Hong Kong tournament on 23 June 2018, and the doubles titles in 2017 in Heraklion, and two in 2015 in Gulbarga. On the junior tour, Thandi had a career-high ranking of No. 32, achieved in January 2016.[6] Additionally, she also made it to the semi-finals in two other tournaments in China.[7]
Since 2017 she has represented India in the Fed Cup, where she has a singles win-loss record of 3–6, and a doubles record of 2–1[8]
She is backed by the Virat Kohli Foundation[9] and by Mahesh Bhupathi.[10]
Thandi is participated in the 2018 Asian Games, with Divij Sharan in mixed doubles event. She defeated Filipino pairing of Marian Jane Capadocia and Alberto Lim jr in their first match in the Games. But the pair was ousted in third round.[11]
Thandi became the first Indian player to win a WTA main draw match (defeating Lu Jia-Jing at the 2018 Jiangxi International Women's Tennis Open) since Sania Mirza's victory over Kristina Barrois in the 2012 BNP Paribas Open.
