Caroline Wozniacki surprised the world when she returned to the WTA Tour this year. She earned herself a wildcard for the hard court season after Wimbledon and played in many tournaments. She did not compete after the US Open but has announced that she will return in the 2024 season. What’s more, she will return where she is loved.

Wozniacki played in the Canadian Open, Cincinnati Masters and the US Open. While she played after an absence of three years, she put on a great show in the tournaments, and her recent excitement will only get her fans even more excited for her return.

Caroline Wozniacki announces a blazing comeback in 2024

The Danish star put her racket down in 2020 after she was unable to continue playing after a diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis followed by many injuries. She won the 2018 Australian Open, and her final tournament was in 2020. The Dane received a proper farewell at the tournament and will receive a proper welcome when she returns. 

She announced her participation in the first slam of the year on the official Instagram page of the Australian Open. She said, “It’s really incredible that I get another chance of competing in Australia. I really thought, when I retired in 2020, that that was going to be my last tournament, my last match. And there’s a reason why I decided to do it in Australia: it’s because its so special to me.”

She further said, “I feel like I have so much support there. I obviously won my first grand slam there, and it’s just the ‘Happy Slam’, so that was why I made the decision. But, you know, lo and behold, three years later, I realized I still have something to give to the sport, and my passion is still there, and I feel like I’m still young enough to give it one last try. And I’m really, really excited to be back in Australia.”

Wozniacki is quite excited to play in the tournament. Although she played for the first time after 2020, she has had a great season after a long time absence.

Wozniacki’s 2023 season 

Wozniacki announced her return later in June in an interview with Vogue. She said that she was aiming to return to the professional tour in the hard court swing after the grass slam. Wozniacki first played in Montreal in the National Bank Open. She won her first round in blazing form and beat her opponent in straight sets, with a final score of 6-2, 6-2. She lost in the second round and awaited the next tournament.

In Cincinnati, she was ousted in the first round by Varvara Gracheva. However, she did not lose hope and entered the US Open with her usual panache. The Dane won her first and second rounds, beating the then-ranked 11 Petra Kvitova in straight sets. She encountered some difficulty when facing Jennifer Brady in round three as she lost the first set, but found her second wind to win the bout.

She, however, lost the third round against eventual champion Coco Gauff but fought hard to win the second set. Wozniacki put down her racket for the rest of the season. And now, she will return to set fire to her home slam.
