For players not involved in the Fed Cup, there was a week's break before the next round of tournaments. Erakovic and Puig headed to the Thailand Open in Pattaya. Although they lost as a combination in the first round of the doubles, both progressed all the way to the semifinals in the singles. Erakovic started with a win over Luksika Kumkhum. She raced through her second match to beat Yuliya Beygelzimer 6–1, 6–1, before scoring one of her best-ever wins in the quarterfinal, as she defeated former world No. 2, Vera Zvonareva, 2–6, 7–6, 7–5. That match lasted 2 hours and 38 minutes, but her semifinal was to be even longer, as it took Daniela Hantuchová 2 hours and 46 minutes to finally see of the challenge from the New Zealander. The final score was 4–6, 6–3, 7–6.
