He has been ranked as high as World No. 1 in doubles by the Association of Tennis Professionals (ATP), achieved in June 2023.[9] He attained his career-high singles ranking of world No. 94 in October 2015.

A former player for Texas A&M University, Krajicek won the national doubles title at the 2011 NCAA Division I Tennis Championships, the first in the program's history.

Krajicek has established more success in doubles and following his top 100 debut in 2013, he has won eleven career doubles titles on the ATP Tour. Since partnering with Ivan Dodig in 2021, Krajicek has won one ATP Masters 1000 title at the 2023 Monte-Carlo Masters and his first Grand Slam title at the 2023 French Open, a victory that crowned him the ATP world No. 1 in June 2023.
