Danish tennis player Caroline Wozniacki this year demonstrates a phenomenal level of play, trying to regain the lost first line of the WTA rating. Despite the relatively small number of trophies, the 27-year-old tennis player has encouraged her fans with good prospects for the next season.
Early career
Danish tennis player Caroline Wozniacki was born in a sports family - my mother played volleyball for a long time, speaking even as part of the Polish national team, and dad played soccer on a professional level. It was the father who advocated sending his 7-year-old daughter to the tennis court. Quite quickly, the easy and stubborn junior was able to establish itself, and already 5 years later, she fought on equal terms for victory in tournaments, including with older rivals.
Thanks to her confident game in 2004, Caroline Wozniacki was able to qualify for the Junior Grand Slam tournament, and in the fall she reached the final of the tournament in Osaka, having become a triumph of the competition in a bitter struggle. Inspired by success, in just two years, the young Danish woman reached the top of the international ranking among girls.
Women's Tennis Top
In 2007, Caroline Wozniacki, thanks to an incredible win-win series of 14 matches in a row, broke into the top 200 best athletes in the world, loudly declaring herself, and a year later becoming a tennis player with the prefix “from the top 20”. Thanks to excellent statistics in 2008 (58 wins with 20 losses), Caroline was recognized as the “WTA Rookie of the Year”.
The next two years became a little less successful for the Danes, but it’s difficult to rank them as unsuccessful - having won several important trophies, on March 2, 2010 Caroline Wozniacki became the second racket in the world, 8 months later topping the main tennis rating among women.
The year 2011 was marked by a series of successful results for the tennis player - after the semi-finals at the Australian Open, three finals followed, and in almost all major competitions Carolina managed to reach at least the semi-finals. Thanks to her game, Wozniacki was able to keep the first line of the rating.
Problems with the Danish tennis player began in 2012. Due to the coaching “leapfrog”, Wozniacki’s results deteriorated sharply, and, taking two trophies, and even a year later, only one, Caroline left the top of the tennis rating. Despite the improvement of the game, the Dane could not show a decent result, continuing to lose position in singles, - after a slight rise in 2014 to 8th place, Carolin soon found herself on the verge of relegation from the top 20.
In 2017, the quality of tennis demonstrated by Caroline Wozniacki - before the final tournament in Singapore, Wozniacki had 58 wins and 20 defeats - allowed the athlete to jump up again. By October, the Danish took the 6th place in the ranking, and now, taking into account the upcoming tournament, one of the main stars has good chances to break into the top 5 of world tennis.
"Hall of Fame"
The Danes have more than three dozen titles in professional tennis competitions, while Caroline Wozniacki succeeded not only in singles, but also in doubles. In total, the duo has two victories in the WTA finals - the first one took place in 2006, when the mistresses of the court, Chinese Han Xinyun and Xu Yifan, were beaten together with Anabel Garrigues, and the final today is three years later. Together with Victoria Azarenka, Caroline defeated a couple of Fedak-Krycek.
The main "direction" of Wozniacki is singles - she has won 6 victories in ITF tournaments and another 26 in the WTA. The first Victoria in an elite series of competitions was won in 2008 in Stockholm - Caroline did not leave a chance for Russian Vera Dushevina. In the future, the Danish athlete took at least one title every year, while the vast majority was won on hard - Wozniacki's favorite coating.
Currently there are no cups from the main tennis competition - the Grand Slam tournament in the Carolyn Wozniacki piggy bank . The Dane reached the finals twice, but both times lost - in 2009 in the USA the young athlete could not cope with Kim Kleisters, and 5 years later, Serena Williams was on her way to the title at the US Open.
In the course of her career, Caroline Wozniacki was marked by a unique “achievement” - for six years at the Australian Open, the Dane has consistently demonstrated a deterioration in her results. From the semifinal stage in 2011, the tennis player descended step by step to the relegation in the first round in 2016.
Personal life
Not much is known about Caroline Wozniacki’s personal life - the tennis player herself in this interview avoided this topic. In 2011, the Danes were often observed at golf tournaments with the participation of Rory Makilroy, and later their close relationship was confirmed by the couple. More than two years later, the athletes announced their engagement, but shortly before the wedding, the lovers broke up. The British golfer called the reason for the disagreement his own unpreparedness for marriage. Currently, Caroline Wozniacki is single and is fully focused on her professional tennis career.
