Caroline Wozniacki is no Balboa
What she said:
“I prefer not to knock out anyone. I’m a nice girl, so… Or I like to think so.”
Caroline Wozniacki enlightens us that she considers herself to be a ‘nice girl’ and thus would not ever knock anyone out. Perhaps, that explains why she does not have a major to her name yet. Here’s hoping that Wozniacki can prove that nice girls don’t have to finish last.
What she really meant:
“Nice girls can box too.”
What she definitely didn’t:
“Just call me Rosy Balboa from now on.”

What she said:
"I’m definitely trying to keep up. He has something I’m looking for and I have something he’s looking for. He wants to be number one, so it’s good to have something on each other."
Caroline Wozniacki has the No.1 ranking but no Slam. Rory McIlroy has the US Open title but not the No. 1 ranking. Quite the complementary couple.
What she really meant:
“The score’s one-all in this game of love.”
What she definitely didn’t:
“We’re considering cross-training. Golf weds tennis, sort of thing.”
"I’m not going to forget how to play tennis in a few days."
Women’s No.1 , Caroline Woznicaki, dismisses suggestions that her US Open performance will be affected by her split from her current coach and father, Piotr Wozniacki.
What she really meant:
“I cannot play worse—without one. Can I?”
What she definitely didn’t say:
“If Marion (Bartoli) and Andy (Murray) can yell at their parents and entourage, why can’t I fire my dad?”
"I’d like to be an actress. Could you see me as a Bond girl? You know I live in Monaco, right?"
Caroline Wozniacki would love to be an actress if she were not the No.1 tennis player in the world.
What she really meant:
“I’ve already got the right address for a Bond girl. Is there anything else I need (to be one)?”
What she definitely didn’t:
“Rory McIlroy would make a great James Bond.”

What she said:
"Well, I think that ball came from the other court. I saw it coming.I saw it moving into the court. Then I asked for replaying the point.”
Caroline Wozniacki recounts her reaction to a ball landing in Court 2 in her second round match against Virginie Razzano.
What she really meant:
“What? Where? How? Replay, please!”
What she definitely didn’t:
“Did I hit the ball, already?”

"She is a really, really nice girl. She’s a great entertainer. No. 1. You never heard about her?"
Novak Djokovic teases Caroline Wozniacki in reply to her question as to who was his favourite women’s player on tour. The Dane gate-crashed the Serb’s press conference on Saturday, the 18th of June 2011, surprising the No. 2 seed, journalists and red-faced ushers.
What he really meant:
“Ms. Caroline is indeed sweet.”
What he definitely didn’t:
“You have an identical twin?”

The trio of Ws coming together could generate more than enough hype and hoopla to keep sports writers busy for the next 14 days.
Maria Sharapova is making headlines—not for her fashion sense, boyfriends or her clothing line—but for her tennis. A fabulous run at the French Open reminded players and fans alike why she was considered one of the most exciting talents to burst onto the WTA tour at 17.
Li Na—her first ever major at Roland Garros—and a billion-plus Chinese fans ignited a Marco Polo-like rush to discover the next Chinese star.
The withdrawal of Kim Clijsters—an aggravation of her ankle injury—means that the Belgian is—for all practical purposes—-hobbled in her farewell year.
The Womens’ Tennis Association (WTA) have sanctioned the forming of a mutual aid society , No. 1s Anonymous (Who Have Never Won A Major), whose primary purpose is to help players stay focused (and No.1) and to help past and present No.1s clinch majors.
The self-help body is co-founded by Caroline Wozniacki, Jelena Jankovic and Dinara Safina.
The women’s round of 16 has a threadbare appearance.
Three big upsets in the first week tells a tale of the unpredictability visited on the WTA tour—absent the Williams sisters.
Fans are so used to seeing Serena Williams perched atop the rankings that they failed to note the depth in the lower rungs.
This year’s French Open is not about Roger Federer. Was it ever? Except for that little aberration in 2009, with Rafa missing.
It’s centres on that Serbian upstart Novak Djokovic and that muscled monster, Rafael Nadal.
Who’s Roger, indeed?
