Pro tour

Ouahab turned professional in 2002 at the age of 17.

Due to his junior success, he got a wild card into the 2004 Summer Olympics main draw. He lost in the first round to 15th seed Tommy Robredo.

Ouahab made his ATP debut in 2006 at the Grand Prix Hassan II in Morocco after receiving a wildcard into the main draw. He lost in the first round to Florian Mayer.

It was also in 2009 that he reached his career-high ranking of No. 114 on 21 September 2009 which is also the highest ranked any Algerian player has been in history.

In late 2013, Ouahab acquired a Moroccan passport and officially stopped representing Algeria and started representing Morocco.

At the 2015 Grand Prix Hassan II, Ouahab made his only ATP quarterfinal after defeating 1st seed and world number 24 Guillermo García López in the second round. He lost to Daniel Gimeno Traver.

At the 2018 Grand Prix Hassan II, ranked No. 617 Ouahab upset the 3rd seed and world number 34 Philipp Kohlschreiber in the first round. He lost in the second round to Nikoloz Basilashvili.
