Erakovic started the new year, as usual, in the ASB Classic, still with Eduardo Nicolás as her coach, but with a new doubles partner in Monica Puig. They made a shaky start to their career together, needing a super tie-break to win their first match, and then went down to second seeds Andrea Hlaváčková and Lucie Hradecká, again through a super tie-break, in the second round (quarterfinals). Drawn against each other in the singles, it was Erakovic who prevailed in three sets, and was then defeated by eventual semifinalist Záhlavová-Strýcová, again in three sets.
