In 2008, she reached one final, at the Copa Gobierno Bolivariano de Carabobo in Valencia, Venezuela. In 2009, she won the Vina Junior Open, by defeating her compatriot Cecilia Costa Melgar in the final, in straight sets.

In 2010, she played her last junior tournament, at the 27th Copa Gerdau in Porto Alegre, Brazil where she was stopped in the second round by Slovak player Jana Čepelová.

Professional career

Seguel made her debut at the professional level in 2007, at a $10k tournament in Santiago, Chile. In singles, she lost in the first round to Vivian Segnini.

In July 2010, she reached her first ITF singles final in La Paz, Bolivia.
