Junior career
Donaldson trained on the red clay in Buenos Aires for two years instead of following the conventional route of a tennis academy or USTA Player Development. His time there dramatically improved his consistency, movement, and mental game. Having never claimed any prestigious junior crowns (Orange Bowl, Junior grandslams, Les Petits), Donaldson reached the final of the 2013 USTA Boys 18s National Championship at 16, where he lost to Collin Altamirano in straight sets.
In January 2015, he won his first Challenger title at the 2015 Royal Lahaina Challenger in Maui, allowing him to move into the Top 200 of the ATP rankings. He also won the doubles title in Maui with partner Stefan Kozlov. The following month, he won his first ATP level match at the 2015 Memphis Open, this time defeating Kozlov.
2016: Top 100
Donaldson made it through qualifying at the US Open. He then recorded the biggest win of his career, knocking off 12th-seeded David Goffin in the first round. He then beat Viktor Troicki before losing to Ivo Karlovic in the third round, which was enough to push him into the Top 100 of the ATP rankings for the first time.
