Following her main-draw debut at the Wimbledon Championships, she reached her first Grand Slam quarterfinal after defeating Wang Xiyu, second seed Anett Kontaveit, Lesia Tsurenko and Heather Watson.[3][4] The victory over Kontaveit was in straight sets and her first match against a top-10 player.[5] In the quarterfinal, she lost to compatriot Tatjana Maria in three sets.[6]

At her US Open main-draw debut, she reached the fourth round, after defeating Sofia Kenin,[7] Yulia Putintseva, and Zheng Qinwen, all in straight sets. In the fourth round, she lost to world No. 1, Iga Świątek, after winning the first set.[8]
