Giorgi went on to reach the fourth round of the 2012 Wimbledon Championships in just her second appearance at the tournament.

After her successful run at the championships, she made her top-100 debut in the WTA rankings. The following year, she followed it up with a third round run at the Wimbledon Championships, and made her second Grand Slam fourth round at the US Open.

She reached her first Grand Slam quarterfinal at the 2018 Wimbledon Championships, six years after her Wimbledon breakout tournament.
