At the 2004 Summer Olympics, Corsini missed out the podium in the women's event, when she finished fourth in the overall results, with a score of 5,324 points. She aimed higher chances of winning an Olympic medal at her second games in Beijing, but her poor performance in the fencing segment landed her to fourteenth place. Shortly after the Olympics, Corsini eventually retired from her sporting career.
