For the 1989 rowing season, Sorgers teamed up with Schramm in a double scull. Early in the rowing season, they successfully competed against a team made of Jutta Behrendt (née Hampe) and Sybille Schmidt (Sorger's 1983 double scull partner).[19] Sorgers and Schramm won the 1989 World Rowing Championships in Bled, Yugoslavia.[20] For the 1990 rowing season, Sorgers was back in a quad with Schmidt, Kerstin Köppen and Krüger.[21] This crew went to Tasmania in Australia for the 1990 World Rowing Championships where they became world champions. This was the last appearance of the East German national rowing team as the German reunification had happened a month earlier; the two German rowing federations were about to merge, too.
