Caroline Wozniacki is on her 26th birthday.WTA titles in their luggage.But the Danish woman is also thinking about Serena Williams.
Caroline Wozniacki needed seven attempts and the Danish driver was able to collect the wages in Tokyo this weekend.Finally.After six lost finals in 2017, the first title of the year was finally on their credit side, the 26th place.altogether.Especially her last two matches, in the final round against Garbine Muguruza and in the final against Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova, have to be booked in the category “Gala Show”, the world’s number one in the rankings from Spain only managed to win two games against Wozniacki.
However, there was not much time to celebrate – the former industry leader was challenged again on Tuesday at the WTA Premier 5 tournament in Wuhan.Maria Sakkari from Greece was the first hurdle.A too high hurdle, as it turned out after the defeat of the Danish 5:7, -3:6.And this despite the fact that Caroline Wozniacki is on fourth place in Wuhan and is thus one of the most popular players on the Tour.On the other hand, however, this speaks in favour of the strong line-up of the major event in the east of China.
Of the top ladies, only Venus Williams and Elina Svitolina, who won the first three tournaments of this category in 2017, are missing: Dubai, Rome and Toronto.And of course Serena Williams, who has been absent from the WTA circus since the Australian Open.Wozniacki and Serena have been friends for many years, and this friendship is mainly lived in the USA.The 23-time major champion is looking after her daughter there, but is aiming to defend her title in Melbourne at the beginning of 2018.This is a task her Wozniacki naturally believes to be necessary.
“I think Serena can focus on both the baby and tennis,”said the 27-year-old in Wuhan,”I think she will make a strong comeback.At the same time, she will enjoy being a mother, the whole experience with it.I think it’s something very special.”
Wozniacki has not yet seen Serena’s girl in person.The images transmitted to her, however, allow only one reaction.pure enthusiasm.”She is so sweet!I can’t wait to see her.”
