Erakovic returned to New Zealand for a holiday through most of April, before resuming as top seed at the $50k clay-court tournament in Indian Harbour Beach, Florida. She beat two qualifiers before losing to Anett Kontaveit in the quarterfinals. Moving over to Europe, she was beaten in the first round of qualifying singles for the Italian Open in Rome by Julia Görges. She progressed to the doubles in the quarterfinals, where, for the second time in the space of a few months, she came up against Peschke and Srebotnik. She and partner Arantxa Parra Santonja were beaten 6–4, 6–4 by the fourth seeds, who went on to win the tournament after Errani and Vinci had to retire when Errani injured her hip. They were second seeds in the doubles at the Nürnberger Versicherungscup, their last tournament before the French Open, but were well-beaten in the first round by Anna-Lena Grönefeld and Antonia Lottner. Erakovic then lost her first-round singles match to top seed Angelique Kerber.
