Ekaterina Alexandrova performed at nine tournaments in 2021. We can't say that she was successful, because she won only 11 matches out of 20, but she didn't failed either.

On clay Ekaterina played at Stuttgart and Madrid. At Germany she beat Muchova (4:6, 6:2, 6:3) and Bencic (6:1, 7:5). At the Spanish capital, Alexandrova was eliminated in the first round by Victoria Azarenka (5:7, 6:3, 1:6).
