Bellis achieved her career-high ranking of world No. 35 in August 2017, a testament to her hard work and dedication. One of her most notable accomplishments came at the 2014 US Open, where, at just fifteen years old, she won a match against a top-20 opponent, making her the youngest match-winner at the tournament since 1996.

In her junior career, Bellis had an outstanding season in 2014, finishing as the ITF Junior World Champion with the year-end world No. 1 junior ranking. She also made history by winning the USTA National Junior Championship that same year, becoming the youngest winner of the event since Lindsay Davenport in 1991.
