She held the world No. 1 ranking for 71 weeks before she ever won a major - a gap that made her the defining case study in the difference between consistency and coronation. When the Australian Open title finally came in 2018, it closed an argument that had trailed her for years.

About this person
Wozniacki won the junior title at Wimbledon in 2006 and was named WTA Newcomer of the Year two years later. She reached major finals at the 2009 and 2014 US Opens but lost both, and by 2010 she'd risen to world No. 1 - a position she held across 71 weeks, including year-end finishes in 2010 and 2011. The breakthrough came at the 2018 Australian Open, her first and only major singles title, followed by the 2017 WTA Finals. Known for footwork and defensive range, she retired after the 2020 Australian Open, moved into commentary for Tennis Channel and ESPN in 2022, then returned to competition at the 2023 Canadian Open and US Open before signaling in November 2025 that the comeback was likely over.
