In June, Korpatsch made her third major main-draw debut at the Wimbledon Championships where she lost to Heather Watson.[5] Korpatsch had also entered the doubles competition but her partner, Harmony Tan, withdrew only an hour before their match prompting her to express, in a since-deleted social media post, her anger and disappointment at not being able to participate in the event on her debut.[6][7]

She won her first WTA 125 tournament title at the Budapest Open defeating Viktoriya Tomova in the final.[8]

She finished the year ranked No. 89 in the world.

Ranked No. 105, she won her first WTA Tour title in her career, at the 2023 Transylvania Open in Cluj Napoca, with a win over Romanian Elena-Gabriela Ruse in the final.[11] As a result, she climbed nearly 35 positions and reached a career high at No. 71 on 23 October 2023.[12]

As a qualifier, Korpatsch reached the semifinals at the 2023 Prague Open, losing to fourth seed Linda Nosková.[13]

At the 2025 Jiangxi Open, Korpatsch reached her first WTA Tour quarterfinal since 2023,[16] losing to wildcard entrant Lilli Tagger.[17] Teaming up with Jessika Ponchet, she won her first WTA 125 doubles title at the 2025 Open Angers Arena Loire, defeating Jesika Malečková and Miriam Škoch in the final.[18] At the same tournament, she was runner-up in the singles, losing the final to Kamilla Rakhimova.[19]

Korpatsch recorded wins over qualifier Anna Sisková,[20] second seed Emiliana Arango,[21] sixth seed Caty McNally[22] and Diane Parry to make it into her second WTA Tour singles final at the 2026 Ostrava Open.[23] She lost the championship match to Katie Boulter in three sets.[24]

In May 2026, Korpatsch reached the final at the WTA 125 Catalonia Open, but was defeated by seventh seed Daria Kasatkina in three sets.[25] At the 2026 French Open she reached a Grand Slam singles third round for the first time,[26] but lost to Elina Svitolina.[27]

Korpatsch defeated Anna Bondár to win her second WTA Tour title, this time in her hometown, at the 2026 Hamburg Open.[28] She was the first German woman to win the Hamburg Open since Steffi Graf in 1992.[29]
