Collignon earned four titles on ITF Men's Tour throughout 2022; this included the Marburg Open, Germany, a M25-level event, which he won without dropping a set. He defeated Yshai Oliel in the final.[4]
2023: Maiden Challenger final, top 215
In April 2023, Collignon reached his first ATP Challenger final, at the Challenger di Roseto degli Abruzzi, Italy, where he lost to first seed Filip Misolic.[1][5] As a result, he moved into the top 215 in the singles rankings and entered the qualification zone of a slam major for the first time, at the 2023 French Open.[6]
2024: Maiden Challenger title, ATP and top 125 debuts
In August 2024, Collignon won his maiden Challenger title at the Platzmann-Sauerland Open, Germany, defeating first seed Botic van de Zandschulp in the final.[7]
The Belgian received a wildcard for a home tournament, the 2024 European Open, making his ATP Tour debut. He lost in the first round to Marton Fucsovics.[8][9]
After his second Challenger title at the All In Open, France,[10] he ended that season ranked inside the top 125 in the singles rankings.[11]
2025: First ATP semifinal, US Open third round, top 75
Following his third Challenger title at the Teréga Open Pau–Pyrénées, Collignon reached the top 100 for the first time, with a career-high singles ranking of world No. 98 on 24 February 2025.[12]
In April, at the 2025 Grand Prix Hassan II, Morocco, Collignon defeated former top-10 player Fabio Fognini to record his first ATP Tour win.[13][14]
In June, Collignon made his major debut at the 2025 Wimbledon Championships, losing in the first round to former finalist Marin Čilić.[15] The Belgian recorded his first major win later that season, at the US Open, defeating lucky loser Daniel Elahi Galán in the first round,[16] and then went on to upset 12th seed Casper Ruud. He ultimately lost to 20th seed Jiří Lehečka in the third round.[17][18]
Playing at his home tournament for the second time, with a new invitation, Collignon reached his first ATP Tour semifinal with wins over compatriot Zizou Bergs,[19] Francisco Comesaña[20] and fourth seed Alejandro Davidovich Fokina.[21]
