Aryna Sabalenka thanked Caroline Wozniacki for the excellent level she has displayed in her return to the WTA Tour.
The World No. 2 is in superb form at this US Open, securing three convincing victories over Maryna Zanevska, Jodie Anna Burrage, and Clara Burel, averaging just four games lost per match.
After defeating the French player in the third round, Sabalenka answered questions from the press and expressed her admiration for Caroline Wozniacki and her remarkable comeback to the WTA Tour after more than three years since her retirement.
“I think that’s amazing and that’s just something incredible. She was out for three and a half years, having two kids and came back in tennis, and still play at her best,” world no. 2 said.
“I feel if you have this level you will never lose it. It feels like, when you watch them, and it gives so much belief to me. One day I’d like to go for a baby. I’ll have some chances to come back. So thank you for that.”
“There’re just such an inspiration and ‘m really happy for her,” she added.
Wozniacki has already secured three victories at the US Open, defeating Tatiana Proxorova, 11th seed Petra Kvitova, and Jennifer Brady. The former world No. 1 will face local talent Coco Gauff in the fourth round, who comes with a remarkable 14-1 record in the hardcourt swing.
On the other hand, Sabalenka, the 2023 Australian Open champion, continues to shine in Flushing Meadows and keeps adding Grand Slam victories to her name. With a record of 20-2 in tournaments of this caliber, she holds the most wins on the tour in 2023.
The Belarusian will compete in the octaves of the final against Russia's Daria Kasatkina with the goal of staying in contention for her second Grand Slam title and potentially claiming the world No. 1 ranking for the first time in her career
