Caroline Wozniacki remembers playing doubles with Serena Williams

Despite the rivalry on the tennis court, Caroline Wozniacki and Serena Williams have always shared a great friendship that has also manifested itself several times outside the world of our sport. The two faced each other eleven times in their careers, with the Odense player once emerging as the winner: It is the quarter-finals of Miami 2012, which the Dane won with a double 6-4.

Caroline played her last official game at the 2020 Australian Open, where she was defeated in three sets by Tunisian Ons Jabeur in the third match of the tournament. In the penultimate event of her career, Wozniacki took part in singles and doubles at the ASB Classic in Auckland and combined this specialty with Serena Williams.

Caroline Wozniacki: “Why didn’t we do that before?”

In Auckland, Caroline overtook Paige Hourigan, Lauren Davis and Julia Goerges before losing 6: 3, 4: 6, 0: 6 in the semifinals to American Jessica Pegula.

In the women’s doubles tournament, Wozniacki and Serena Williams were able to advance to the final, defeated by the doubles duo Taylor Townsend and Asia Muhammad in straight sets. “We had a lot of fun, it was fantastic,” said Caroline in an interview also published by EssentiallySports.

“We said to ourselves, ‘But why didn’t we do that before?'” Just to remember her double campaign in New Zealand, the former Danish number one shared a photographic memory on Instagram from twelve months ago that she and Serena did shows at the celebration of entry into the finals of the tournament.

Wozniacki’s only career Grand Slam event was the Australian Open 2018, which he won in the final against the Romanian Simona Halep. Caroline also won the WTA final last year, defeating American legend Venus Williams in the decisive match 6-4, 6-4.

Young Sofia Kenin, who was also recently a finalist at Roland Garros in Paris, holds the latest Melbourne trophy.
