Sydney 1st round : Caroline Wozniacki defeated by Na Li ( CHN ) 6-2, 3-6, 2-6

I didn't watch the match but it seems it was an ugly match to watch ! Even the Chinese hit more than 50 errors during the match, Caroline managed to lose the match : you have to figure it out ! She was up a break in the second set 2-1 and 3-2 but failed to confirm them by losing her serve directly after having broken Na Li's serve ! 

There was two things clear in this match : Caroline's serve is nowhere and she hit yet again too few winners. I guess she was the passive and clueless Caroline herself today !

Sarcasm on : Wat a magnificent way to start your season, Caroline ! You couldn't dream of a better start than this one ! Sarcasm Off. 

If she thinks she's on the right path with that kind of horrible performance, she's completely WRONG ! Get back to the serious work to prevent yourself from another embarassement at the Australian Open.

Caroline Wozniacki is now in Australia.

Caroline Wozniacki is now in Australia with in sight the Australian Open : 1st Grand Slam of the year where I hope she'll make a very decent run but no way she will win the tournament ! First stop in Australia : Sydney ( 10/01/2010 - 17-01-2010 ) with as first opponent Na Li of China ! 

Hong Kong exhibition : her results !

There was no livestream nor serious coverage of that event but here are her results in singles : 

Venus Williams defeated Caroline Wozniacki 6-4.  Only one set was played : weird enough.

Maria Sharapova defeated Caroline Wozniacki 7-5, 6-3. Caroline was 5-2 up in the 1st set but then collapsed !

Don't know what it's all about but if you know it, you can help me.

This blog will be updated as much as I can when the new season will begin.

The Barbados exhibition : S. Williams beat Caroline Wozniacki 6-4.

I don't care about the score of this match and about the match as it was no serious stuff. People from The Barbados had loads of fun, I presume : I'm pleased for them.

Wozniacki in for tennis battle with Serena this weekend in Barbados.

11/24/2009

International tennis superstar Caroline Wozniacki arrived at the Grantley Adams International Airport yesterday just days before she she is scheduled to do battle with Serena Williams at the Garfield Sobers Gymnasium.

The world number 4 was all smiles as she greeted the press at the Grace Adams Suite yesterday and noted that it was always a dream of hers to come to Barbados.

“I was really looking forward to coming here and spending some time hear. I have heard some wonderful things of Barbados and I am looking forward to exploring the island,” said Wozniacki.

Wozniacki noted that Williams was the first person she heard talking about the match-up and then she was approached by her agent. According to her when she heard it was going to be in Barbados she jumped at the opportunity.

She is coming off of an hamstring injury she picked up at the BGL Luxembourg Open, forcing her to retire hurt from that tournament. However, the Danish superstar is confident that everything is great.

“I am feeling really good now; I had a lot of days off. I started to practice last week and now I feel good, I feel fit. Yeah I am ready,” said Wozniacki.

Playing against current world number 1 Serena Williams is not going to be easy but Wozniacki is up for the challenge.

“She is a great player and has a great personality as well a really nice girl. I am really looking forward to seeing her here,” said Wozniacki.

Wozniacki will be the staying at the Sandy Lane Hotel, along with her mother Anna, father Piotr and brother Patrik. She turned pro in July 2005 and has won six World Tennis Association Tour singles and was runner up in this year’s US Open.

Don't think it's clever playing an exhibition match knowing she has just recovered from injuries and also she hasn't rested enough after very heavy 2009 season. It maybe is great for The Barbados seeing a bit of the WTA big guns with such exhibition match but for me such exhibitions are a waste of time and energy.

News about Caroline's injury !

Todays doctors visit went well, Caro is 100% fit again. She will start running tomorrow and get about 30 mins tennis training a day untill Barbados.

"It went very well. She is fresh and healthy and ready for hard training from tomorrow," says her father and coach, Piotr Wozniacki, to TV 2 Sport after Caroline Wozniackis visiting her physiotherapist Monday.

"This means that all the little injuries that Caroline had at the end of the season was not as serious as I was talking about," stresses relieved Piotr Wozniacki.

Starts with jogging:

The young Danish tennis player starts with training relatively quietly, so the damage does not pop up again.

"She starts up with jogging and then she plays about a half hour of tennis each day at first. Next week we go to Barbados, where she will get a real tennis training program again," says Piotr Wozniacki.

Caroline Wozniacki tennis academy

Wozniacki tennis academy.

Caroline Wozniacki is now launching a project, which is ultimately to create a new Danish top player.

Caroline will, with her father Piotr, start a tennis academy in Copenhagen, where young aspiring talents can get competent training and insight into life as a tennis professional.

"I feel that for me it is important to give some of all the talent out there a chance. In this way we, who have tried it, can give our knowledge to new aspiring talents," says Caroline Wozniacki and explain.

"It will be twice a month the first year where we're going to try to give young talents the opportunity to live as professional tennis players," says Caroline Wozniacki to TV2 Sport and describes one of the ideas behind the project.

Talents should be trained hard:
"They will be trained hard so that they experience what it is like to live as a tennis player at the highest levels with diet and workout plans and everything that goes with it," explains the 19-year tennisstar and insists that anyone can join.

A central figure in the academy is Caroline Wozniackis father Piotr, who has trained his daughter to be among the world's best female tennis players.

"I have gained much knowledge by traveling with Caroline, about being a professional tennis player. This I want to pass on. It is important for me to say that we will not make money on this project," says Piotr.
