In June 2021, Wozniacki and Lee welcomed their daughter Olivia. Prior to that, in 2019, she said goodbye to tennis after playing in the Australian Open. However, it wasn’t before she became a Grand Slam champion for the first time in her career in 2018, at the Australian Open. In the final, she beat Romanian star Simona Halep in a thrilling encounter.

Despite retiring from professional tennis, she played a farewell match in front of her home crowd in April of this year. In that match, she played against Angelique Kerber and won the match in straight sets.
