Chan started the season with an unexpected lead of 5–1 against world No.
4 Elena Dementieva in their first-round match in Auckland.
Chan ultimately lost the match to the eventual champion.
After that, her results were uninspiring other than winning a round at the Australian Open, her first time to do so.

Chan was diagnosed with a fatigue fracture in her left foot, which stopped her season for three months after the Sony Ericsson Open in Miami to when the grass season kicked off.
She suffered quite a number of upsets after her comeback, but rebounded just in time for the Asian tour in the autumn.
She delighted home crowds by sweeping both the singles and doubles (with Chuang) titles in the Taipei 100K tournament.
For the fourth year in a row, Chan finished the season in the top 100.

On the doubles court, Chan shocked the world No.
1 team of Cara Black and Liezel Huber with Romanian Monica Niculescu, in the quarterfinals of the Premier level tournament in Stanford.
They were defeated by Serena and Venus Williams in the title match after taking out another seeded pair of Maria Kirilenko and Sorana Cîrstea.
