Tennis career

Ćaćić competes both in singles and doubles events, mainly on ITF Men's Circuit and ATP Challenger Tour level. Overall he has won 2 doubles titles in the ATP Tour, 3 doubles titles in the ATP Challenger Tour, as well as five singles and 32 doubles titles in ITF Futures tournaments.
Having played alongside his compatriots, including Marko Djokovic, Ilija Bozoljac and Dušan Lajović, he has also taken part in three ATP World Tour main doubles tournaments held in Belgrade and Umag, where he lost in the opening rounds.
In the summer of 2014, after a series of successful appearances in Challenger tournaments played on clay surface, and thanks to his first victory in three years in Futures event, Ćaćić moved into the Top 300 and achieved his career-best singles ranking of 281 in the ATP list.
Ćaćić did not participate in any tournament during the 2015 season due to injury, which caused a drop from both world singles and doubles rankings.
He recorded his first win on ATP World Tour level in the first round of 2016 Croatia Open Umag, where he defeated Aljaž Bedene in three sets, ranked 69th at the time.
In the summer of 2019, he won his first ATP Challenger title at the 2019 Shkymkent Challenger with Yang Tsung-hua. Later that year he won his first tour level doubles title, alongside his compatriot Dušan Lajović at the 2019 Chengdu Open, edging out the number 4 seeds Jonathan Erlich and Fabrice Martin 7–6, 3–6, .
