Caroline Wozniacki came out of retirement at the age of 33 to prove that it is just a number. To rise to the top after a comeback, Wozniacki prepares for a wonderful year.

After retiring in 2020 due to personal reasons, the Dane gave birth to a child before coming back last year to try and resume her great work in tennis. Starting the year with a decent run at the ASB Classic, she heads into the Australian Open where she has won before.

In a recent interview at the Australian Open Press Conference, the 33-year-old was asked if her comeback was easier than she expected or not to which she gave a very realistic answer.

Knowing the limitations of her body, the Dane has made changes accordingly to play the sport at this age. She said that she is “no spring chicken anymore” and needs to be more diligent with what she does from now on. 

I don't know. I think about where I thought it was going to be. But obviously I'm no spring chicken anymore, so my body, I just need to be careful with it, treat it accordingly. I think that's what I've learned in the off-season, to be really diligent with everything that I do.
She said via AO Press

After years of grinding through tournaments and getting the results, Wozniacki decided to be careful with what she does and how she does it.

I think that's the main thing. I've played for so many years, been able to push my body to the brink almost every day for that whole time. Now just I really got to be more careful with what I do and how I do things.

As a former Australian Open winner, the Dane knows what it is like to be on the winning side and hopes to get back there in no time.

After a brief retirement, she is also on the road to improve her ranking at the age of 33. Since her return, her best was till the Round of 16 at the US Open and will hope to go higher at Australia. However, She is not the only player who is grinding at the age of 33.

Novak Djokovic is another player going strong at 36 with his fitness levels and tennis skills. As one of the only players with a short injury list, Serbia has become an icon for fitness and continues to expand his fanbase for his fitness levels.

Like Djokovic, Wozniacki is also trying to maintain her work according to her body and hopefully can get back her lost rankings.

After a walkthrough in her first round at the Australian Open, the Dane now plays a qualifier Maria Timofeeva who fought her way through to the second round.
