3.1. Debut and Early Career (2004-2011)
Andújar turned professional in 2004. He made his Grand Slam debut at the 2008 French Open as a lucky loser, where he advanced to the second round by defeating Filippo Volandri. In August 2008, following consecutive victories at Challenger tournaments in Vigo and San Sebastián, he entered the top 100 of the ATP rankings, reaching World No. 88 on August 25, 2008.

The year 2011 marked a significant breakthrough for Andújar as he claimed his maiden ATP Tour singles title at the Grand Prix Hassan II in Morocco, triumphing over Italian Potito Starace in the final. This victory propelled him into the top 50, reaching World No. 48 on April 25, 2011. He continued his strong form by reaching two more ATP-level finals during the 2011 season, at the Stuttgart Open and again at the BCR Open Romania.

However, he made a remarkable comeback in April 2018, winning his fourth ATP tournament and his first in four years.
