As a qualifier, he reached the semifinals of the 2012 BRD Năstase Țiriac Trophy in Bucharest and was defeated by Fabio Fognini.

His next best result was the quarterfinals seven years later as a wildcard at the 2019 Hungarian Open with victories over Hubert Hurkacz and sixth seed John Millman.[2] Next he reached his first ATP final at the 2019 Croatia Open Umag where he lost against Dušan Lajović as a qualifier.[3]

In 2020, he reached the semifinals of the ATP 500 2020 Rio Open tournament as a lucky loser where he was defeated by Gianluca Mager.[4] As a result he reached the top 100. He also recorded his first Major win at the 2020 Roland Garros.[5]

At 2022 Wimbledon Championships, he used protected ranking to enter the main draw , making his debut at this Grand Slam.

At the 2023 US Open he also entered with protected ranking, replacing Denis Shapovalov after his withdrawal due to injury, but lost to former US Open champion Daniil Medvedev in straight sets in a little over an hour.[6]

In February 2024, Balázs announced that he would retire from professional tennis.[7]

His older brother, György Balázs, was also a tennis player,[8][9] and the pair have played doubles together,[10] winning five ITF doubles titles between 2007 and 2010.
