Former world number one Caroline Wozniacki has stated that she has found a way to keep the balance of her personal and professional life.

The 33-year-old has recently come out of retirement after a break of three years and is currently taking part in the US Open 2023.

Wozniacki was quoted in a report where she stated that she has the ability to stay focused, whether she is with the kids or taking part in a match.

"I think once a competitor, always a competitor,” she said. “I know what I need to do out there. When I'm with the kids, I'm with the kids 100%. When I'm zoned in on the match, I'm there 100%. I gave the kids a big kiss. I said, Mommy's got to go work now. Olivia asked if she could join. I said, No, it's very late, you're going to be sleeping. She said, Okay, tomorrow we play tennis."

"I'm just so happy to be through. I think there are some things I did very well, other things that I can do better. All in all, I'm going to be thrilled with a win today. Playing on Armstrong is special. Playing a night session. Obviously, I was a little nervous going out there and finishing off the match. Again, just thrilled to be through in an exciting match. Get another one out there.

"Honestly, I usually love a night session. For me I thrive playing in front of a big crowd, playing a night session, especially when you're playing first on. You know exactly when you're on. You can really prepare for that.”

Wozniacki has made a winning start to her campaign in the fourth and final Grand Slam of the year where she defeated Tatiana Prozorova in the opening round in straight sets with a score of 6-3, 6-2.

She will now face Petra Kvitova of the Czech Republic in the second round of the competition on Wednesday.
