They lost to Jelena Janković and Katarina Srebotnik.[8] In October, Dabrowski (with partner Alicja Rosolska) reached her second WTA doubles final at the International tournament in Linz. They were eliminated by twin sisters Karolína and Kristýna Plíšková in the final.[9] Dabrowski reached the third singles final of her career at the inaugural ITF 50K SSIR Women's Pro Classic in November, but lost to Mandy Minella.[10]

She defeated, with partner Shuko Aoyama, Hiroko Kuwata and Kurumi Nara in straight sets in the final.[15] In late August at the US Open, she reached the third round in doubles with Rosolska.[16] In November, Dabrowski made it to the final of the ITF 50K Tevlin Women's Challenger where she won her first professional singles title over Maria Sanchez.[17]
