Possibly the lowest point of her recent career followed as she moved to an ITF tournament in Albuquerque, New Mexico. In the first round, she beat her doubles partner Laura Robson in three sets, and then met the world No. 511, wild-card American Sanaz Marand. In another three-setter which lasted over two hours, Marand raced away to win 6–4, 3–6, 6–1, as Erakovic served up 13 double-faults. She saved two match points in the final game, but that wasn't enough. To add further to her woes, she and Robson were bundled out in the first round of the doubles by Ulrikke Eikeri and An-Sophie Mestach, going down 6–10 in the match tie-break.
