The Grand Slam event in New York is about to start, and the tennis realm can’t keep quiet. Adding to the excitement, Caroline Wozniacki, as a wild card participant, is all set to mark her participation at the US Open after her lengthy hiatus. In 2020, the Danish tennis star departed from the tour in order to prioritize her family. Now, after almost three seasons, making a comeback on the court at the age of 33 wasn’t an easy choice for the former Australian Open champion. But, during this challenging phase, Wozniacki received unwavering support from her best friend and the ‘Queen of the Court,’ Serena Williams.
Reminiscing about the same, the former world no.1 recently brought to light a heartfelt conversation with the 41-year-old tennis legend who has encouraged her throughout her comeback decision.
