Diatchenko qualified for the main draw of the Wimbledon Championships for the first time in her career by defeating Julia Glushko, Maria Elena Camerin and Stéphanie Dubois for her first main-draw in a Grand Slam tournament. In the first round, she was defeated by 25th seed Daniela Hantuchová in three sets. Vitalia was also in the women's doubles with compatriot Maria Kondratieva but they were defeated also in the first round by Vera Dushevina and Ekaterina Makarova.
