Fed Cup / BJK Cup

She partnered María Irigoyen, losing to Mariya Koryttseva and Olga Savchuk in straight sets.[8] Ormaechea made her singles debut in 2010 World Group II rubber against Estonia.[9] She lost her first match to world No. 61, Kaia Kanepi,[10] and the second one to Maret Ani.[11] Ormaechea also played in the rubber against Canada, and lost both of her singles matches — against Aleksandra Wozniak and Valérie Tétreault.[12]

2011

Her first tournament was an ITF event in Colombia, where she lost to Alexandra Cadanțu 4–6, 0–6 in the first round of qualifying. After this, she played the Copa Colsanitas, but again lost in qualifying, this time in the second round. Despite her bad run, Paula rebounded and won an ITF tournament in Santiago, Chile one month later. She then played four ITF events during May, reaching the final of one, but losing to top seed Lucie Hradecká 6–4, 3–6, 2–6.

Paula then played the qualifying for the Brussels Open, her first Premier tournament. She got to the final round of qualifying after defeating Catalina Castaño and Andrea Hlaváčková, but was then swept aside by doubles specialist Abigail Spears, 6–1, 6–1.

Following this loss, she headed to Rome to play a $25k tournament, but lost in the second round to Sofia Shapatava. Then, following another loss in the quarterfinals of an ITF event in Poland and an early elimination in the qualifying at the Budapest Grand Prix, Paula's form improved when she qualified for the Gastein Ladies in Kitzbühel, Austria. She there lost in the first round of the main draw to María José Martínez Sánchez, in straight sets.

Paula then took a break from the WTA Tour, playing eight ITF events from August to October, winning two of them.

Notes

The first Premier 5 event of the year has switched back and forth between the Dubai Tennis Championships and the Qatar Ladies Open since 2009. Dubai was classified as a Premier 5 event from 2009 to 2011 before being succeeded by Doha for the 2012–2014 period. In 2015, Dubai regained its Premier 5 status while Doha was demoted to Premier status. The two tournaments have since alternated status every year. The Premier 5 tournaments were reclassified as WTA 1000 tournaments in 2021.
In 2014, the Pan Pacific Open was downgraded to a Premier event and replaced by the Wuhan Open. The Premier 5 tournaments were reclassified as WTA 1000 tournaments in 2021.
The WTA International tournaments were reclassified as WTA 250 tournaments in 2021.
The $10,000 tournaments were reclassified as $15,000 in 2017. However, there were some $15k even before 2017.
The $50,000 tournaments were reclassified as $60,000 events in 2017.
