Tipsarevic began playing at age six and in 1993, at age eight, started playing at New Belgrade Tennis Club with Russian coach Roman Savochkin. In his career, he has won two Futures and nine tournaments from ATP Challenger Series. Tipsarevic has also won the 2001 Australian Open junior title. He is currently ranked No. 79 player on ATP singles rankings, and is the third highest ranked male Serbian tennis player.

Tipsarevic has a good record against highly-ranked players, but is occasionally criticised as being inconsistent and following up a big win with a surprising loss, a tendency which Tipsarevic himself acknowledges.
