Denis Mazukewitsch mainly plays on the third and second rate ITF Future Tour and ATP Challenger Tour . So far he has won five singles and 23 doubles on the Future Tour. He has been on the professional tour since 2002, but only made progress in the world rankings at the end of 2004 when he finished the year in singles at 615 and in doubles at 499. He celebrated his first title in doubles on the Future Tour in 2005. On the Challenger Tour he rarely came on the second round addition, in 2006 he was in Penza for the first time in a final. He made his debut on the ATP World Tour in Moscow . Together with Yevgeny Kirillov he received a wild card for the double field, but was eliminated in the first round.

In the following year Mazukevich again succeeded in Moscow qualifying for the main field of the individual competition, where he was eliminated against his compatriot Marat Safin . Two weeks later he received a wildcard for the individual field in St. Petersburg and celebrated his first win on the World Tour against Igor Kunitsyn . In the second round he clearly had to admit defeat to Philipp Kohlschreiber 1: 6, 1: 6. In 2008 he was in Amersfoort in both the singles and doubles main field, but only survived the first round in doubles. In August Mazukevich celebrated his first title win on the Challenger Tour. In Samarqand he won the double competition on the side of Irakli Labadze . In the following years he did not make the jump into a main field on the World Tour and only played tournaments on the Future and Challenger Tour. In July 2009 he achieved his best double placement in the world rankings with 155th place.

In July 2011, after three individual titles on the Future Tour, he achieved his best individual placement in 234th place and took part in the qualification of a Grand Slam tournament for the first time at the US Open , but was eliminated in the first qualifying round. In 2013 he did not win a single title and slipped out of the top 500 in the world rankings. Thanks to repeated successes on the Future Tour, he returned to the top 300 in the world in doubles in the following years. In May 2016 he won the double title in Samarqand for the second time . This time he and Andrej Wassileuski prevailed against the four seeded duo Hsieh Cheng-peng and Yang Tsung-hua in three sets. Subsequently, he only won five double titles on the Future Tour, which is why he is now only around 800th in the world rankings in both singles and doubles.
