Her first Tour title came at the Indian Challenger No.4 in 2010 and she went on to pick up the China Open and the Chairman's Cup in September of that year. She made it into the top 20 in the world in 2011, when she beat [[Aisling Blake]] in the final of the Macau Open to lift the crown and defeated the number one seed [[Rachael Grinham]] to take home the Challenge Cup title a year later.

On 7 October 2013, at the [[2013 East Asian Games]] in [[Tianjin]], China, Joey Chan defeated China's [[Li Dongjin]] 3-1 for the women's singles title in squash.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.thestandard.com.hk/news_detail.asp?we_cat=8&art_id=138259&sid=40568390&con_type=1&d_str=20131008&fc=2 |title=Squash pair put HK on gold medal table |date=8 October 2013 |newspaper=[[The Standard (Hong Kong)]] |url-status=dead |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20150610201300/http://www.thestandard.com.hk/news_detail.asp?we_cat=8&art_id=138259&sid=40568390&con_type=1&d_str=20131008&fc=2 |archivedate=10 June 2015 }}</ref> Various runner-up finishes followed for Chan over the next few years before she ended her 2014/15 season by lifting the NZ International Classic in June 2015 with a win over [[Misaki Kobayashi]] in the main event.
