Her grandmother is Estonian, who emigrated from Saaremaa to the United States during World War II.[1]
In 2017, tennisrecruiting.net ranked Neel the No. 1 incoming college freshman in the United States. Ingrid attended University of Florida. As the sole freshman on the top-ranked Gators women's tennis team, she clinched championship-winning matches for team victories in the finals of Indoor Nationals vs. North Carolina and the finals of the NCAA National Championship vs. Stanford in 2018.
By winning the Junior National Doubles Championships in 2015, Neel was awarded a wildcard from the United States Tennis Association into the women's doubles tournament of the US Open alongside Tornado Alicia Black where the duo won round one. They were unable to accept the substantial prize money since, at the time, it would have rendered them ineligible for participation in college tennis competition.
In April 2021, she won her first tour title at the Copa Colsanitas in Bogota, partnering with French player Elixane Lechemia and defeating the third seeded pair of Mihaela Buzărnescu and Anna-Lena Friedsam.
In July 2022, at Wimbledon with partner Aliona Bolsova, Neel upset multiple major singles and doubles titles holder Samantha Stosur and her partner Latisha Chan in the first round.
Neel won her first WTA 125 trophy, partnering German Vivian Heisen, at the 2023 Firenze Ladies Open.[2] At the 2023 Pan Pacific Open in Tokyo, she won her biggest title to date with Ulrikke Eikeri.[3]
Neel won her fourth career doubles title at the 2024 Rosmalen Open, partnering Dutch player Bibiane Schoofs.[4][5]
