The Ukrainian shared her expectations from the meeting with the Dane, who, like Elina, interrupted her career for the sake of having children
The first racket of Ukraine Elina Svitolina commented on the upcoming duel with the ex-first racket of the world Caroline Wozniacki for the tournament WTA 1000 V cincinnati.
“In Montreal, I said that one day I would like to play with Caroline again, because in the past we had big battles with her on the court. And here I am! I play with her! So it will be an exciting match. It will definitely be another big fight.”
We will remind, earlier it became known that Svitolina will fight with Wozniacki in the first round of the tournament in Cincinnati, USA.
Other Ukrainians will also take part in the competition: Angelina Kalinina will play with Zhu Lin from China, and one of the winners of the qualifier will be Marta Kostyuk’s opponent. Lesya Tsurenko has already left the qualification, losing in three sets to American Taylot Townsend.
Caroline Wozniacki in June 2023 announced the resumption of a career that she interrupted three years earlier to start a family. In 2021-2022, the Danish woman gave birth to two children: a daughter, Olivia, and a son, James.
Svitolina also interrupted her professional career for a similar reason. In October 2022, Elina gave birth to a daughter, Sky.
