Joint was born in Grosse Pointe, Michigan to an Australian father, professional squash player Michael Joint,[4] and a German mother.[5] In early 2023, at 16 years of age, she made the decision to start representing her father's country of Australia and relocated to Brisbane to begin training at Tennis Australia's National Academy with the likes of junior world no.1 Emerson Jones.[6]
On 8 November 2023, Joint committed to the Texas Longhorns tennis team starting from the 2024/25 season.[7] However, on 26 December 2024, Joint announced she would turn professional and forego her college tennis opportunity.[8]

Joint qualified for the main-draw at the Mérida Open[25] and defeated Julia Grabher. As a result, Joint reached the top 100 in the singles rankings on 3 March 2025 for the first time in her career, becoming only the second teenager in the top 100, at the age of 18 (and second youngest after Mirra Andreeva).[26][27][28] She defeated world No. 20 and fifth seed Donna Vekić, conceding only three games, to make it through to her first WTA 500 quarterfinal.[29][30][31] Joint won the first set of her last eight encounter against Elina Avanesyan but ultimately lost the match, getting bagelled in the deciding set.[32] Despite the defeat she rose into the top 85 in the rankings.[33]
After qualifying for the Madrid Open, Joint overcame wildcard entrant Carlota Martínez Círez to secure her first WTA Tour main draw clay-court win.[38] Aged 19 years and five days at the time, the victory also made her the youngest Australian to win a WTA 1000 match, breaking the previous record of 20 years and 330 days set by Ashleigh Barty at the 2017 Miami Open.[39][40] Joint lost to 11th seed Emma Navarro in the second round.[41] She qualified for the Italian Open, but lost to Emma Raducanu in the first round.[42]
