In the first round she defeated Yanina Wickmayer, but in the second round she was defeated by American Jamie Hampton. She entered qualifying for 2013 Wimbledon Championships; after beating Anna Smith and Timea Bacsinszky, she lost to Eva Birnerová in straight sets, but entered the main draw as a lucky loser anyway. In the first round, she was defeated by Samantha Stosur in straight sets.
After Wimbledon, Schmiedlová reached the final of the $100,000 ITF tournament in Biarritz, only to lose to Stephanie Vogt in three sets. However, as a result of her performance in France, she reached the top 100 for the first time with a ranking of world number 97. At her next tournament in Bad Gastein, Austria, she lost in the first round to Chanelle Scheepers.
Schmiedlová skipped some tournaments at the beginning of the hard-court season due to a minor injury. At the New Haven Open, she qualified for the main draw, but lost in the first round to the sixth seed Sloane Stephens. At the US Open, she won her first-round match against Stefanie Vögele, but lost in the second round to Kaia Kanepi.
