Wasserman became Belgium's youngest Fed Cup player when she lost to Csilla Bartos of Hungary in October 1985 in Japan. She also lost the longest tie-break played by the Belgian Fed Cup team, losing 13–11 to Jennifer Capriati of the United States in 1990 in Atlanta, Georgia after losing the first set 6–0.

Wasserman won her only doubles title at the Spanish Open in Barcelona, Spain on 25 April 1988, partnering Iva Budařová and beating Anna-Karin Olsson and Maria Jose Llorca in the final in three sets.

She reached the finals of the singles event at the Clarins Open in Paris, France during its first two years. In 1988, she lost to Sabrina Goleš, and in 1989, she was defeated by Petra Langrová.
