the physio. Broken once in the first set, she faded badly in the second to eventually lose 4–6, 1–6. She then dropped to the ITF Circuit the following week when, seeded fourth in singles, she lost in three sets in the first round at Indian Harbour Beach to Sesil Karatantcheva. She also played doubles, for the first time since Auckland, with Canadian Aleksandra Wozniak as her partner. After winning their first match very easily, they had to default their second. Erakovic then returned to Auckland for rest and treatment of her neck injury, having confirmed that she would be in the main draw at the French Open, although relegated to the qualifying tournament for Wimbledon. Into Europe Erakovic resumed tournament play at Nürnberg, losing in the first round of qualifying to Aleksandrina Naydenova, before moving to Paris. In the first round at Roland Garros, she drew her Miami nemesis, Shelby Rogers. Breaking Rogers' serve to lead 4–2, she promptly lost her own serve in the next game as they moved to a tie-break to decide the first set. Erakovic was up 4–1 before Rogers, with a mixture of winners and forced errors, took the next six points to win the tie-break 7–4. The second set went with service for the first nine games before Erakovic, serving at 30–all, committed two unforced errors to lose the game, and the match, 6–7, 4–6. No longer required in Paris, Erakovic headed to London for the start of the grass-court season in the ITF Surbiton Trophy. Beaten in the second round of singles by Evgeniya Rodina, she went all the way to final of the doubles with her new partner, Chang Kai-chen of Chinese Taipei, where they lost in straight sets to the Australian pair of Monique Adamczak and Storm Sanders. The result, however, was enough to improve Erakovic's ranking by nearly 50 places, bringing her back inside the top 200. In the first round of singles at the next ITF event, the Manchester Trophy, Erakovic looked very comfortable in the early stages of her match against Aleksandra Krunić, jumping out to a 7–5, 3–0 lead. She then lost six games in a row to lose the second set and, although she held her first two service games in the third set, Krunić then won another four in a row to wrap up the match 7–5, 6–3, 6–2.
