Surprisingly, she defeated Nadia Petrova in straight sets but was eliminated in the second round by Stéphanie Foretz Gacon.

In the same year, Giorgi failed to qualify for the main draw of the French Open, but she had better luck at Wimbledon. Not only did she qualify for the main draw for the second consecutive time, but she also achieved her first Grand Slam victory by defeating fellow Italian Flavia Pennetta in the first round. Giorgi continued her triumphant run by defeating Anna Tatishvili and Nadia Petrova in the second and third rounds, respectively. However, her journey was halted in the fourth round by Agnieszka Radwanska.
