Former World No.1 Caroline Wozniacki Plans To Make Olympian Comeback In Mixed Doubles With Holger Rune

 

Caroline Wozniacki unretire

Two-time Grand Slam champion Caroline Wozniacki is planning a comeback to competitive tennis at the 2024 Paris Olympics where she aims to win an elusive medal for Denmark. The 32-year-old retired from the sport in 2020 after struggles with rheumatoid arthritis but now feels ready to chase one final goal - an Olympic medal.

Wozniacki says competing at the Olympics has always held a special place for her, having made her debut in 2008. She reached the quarterfinals in 2012 and the 2nd round in 2016. Now, after having two children in the past two years, Wozniacki feels physically and mentally prepared to pursue one final competition.

"Over these past three years away from the game I got to make up for lost time with my family, I became a mother and now have two beautiful children I am so grateful for," Wozniacki said.

To achieve her Olympic dream, Wozniacki has recruited rising Danish star Holger Rune to partner her in mixed doubles.The 20-year-old was immediately enthusiastic about the idea, stating "For sure, If she want, I want."  

Rune has already achieved significant success as a professional, rising to a career-high ATP ranking of No.28 this year. He joins Wozniacki in the hope of bringing Denmark its first ever Olympic tennis medal at the 2024 Paris Games.  

Wozniacki's retirement in 2020 was precipitated by struggles with rheumatoid arthritis, an autoimmune disorder that progressively worsened and conflicted with the physical demands of the Tour.

However, her pursuit of an Olympic medal shows Wozniacki's indomitable spirit and competitive drive that made her a Grand Slam champion and World No.1 for 71 weeks. Her comeback attempt with Rune in mixed doubles will be one of the most compelling storylines to follow at the 2024 Olympics.

Top-seeded titleholder Agnieszka Radwanska suffered a major upset against Daria Gavrilova in the Connecticut Open. The Australian tennis player outclassed the former grand slam finalist and world number 2 6-4, 6-4 to set up a championship showdown with Dominika Cibulkova. Gavrilova is chasing her maiden WTA Tour title after losing the final in Strasbourg in May to fellow Australian Samantha Stosur.

The 23-year-old is full of confidence after guaranteeing herself a big rankings bump after holding her nerve to end Radwanska's six-match winning streak in New Haven.

Serving for the match at 5-4 in the second set, Gavrilova saved a break point with her second ace before closing out the contest in one hour and 33 minutes. She is projected to go up to number 22 in the world.

Gavrilova grew up in Russia, moved to Australia when she was 18 and switched her nationality to Australia in December 2015. She will face Dominika Cibulkova of Slovakia on Saturday in the final WTA tuneup event before the US Open, the final Grand Slam event of the season that starts Monday in New York.
