She has held the position as South Africa's junior number one girl tennis player on multiple occasions.

She reached semifinals of all three in singles, and claimed one doubles title alongside Madrie Le Roux.

In May, Hattingh was given a wildcard for the main draw of a $50k tournament in Johannesburg, but was knocked out by eventual finalist Chanel Simmonds in round one.

Hattingh returned to the ITF Junior Circuit in June, playing a Grade-1 event in Germany as the 15th seed.

Following a bye in the first round, she reached the semifinals with the loss of one set, and but lost to Iryna Shymanovich on 15 June for a place in the final.
