The tennis world is aware of the beautiful friendship Serena Williams and Caroline Wozniacki share. Both of them play an integral part in each other’s lives. However, the pandemic caused them to stay apart from each other for a considerable period of time. The distance was truly heartbreaking for Wozniacki who even considered visiting her friend.
Wozniacki is from Denmark while Serena is from the USA. Literally, they live half a world apart. Wozniacki was seeking a way to meet her best friend while she was on the continent.
“Serena has been in her house as well and been really, really careful,” says Wozniacki. “And I’ve been on the other side of the world and, and even when I was in America, we were both just in our houses and we were discussing how we could come and see each other.”
The retired Danish professional even considered taking on a wild venture of meeting her friend. Although looking at a 15-hour drive forced her to drop the idea. Although they promised to meet with proper precautions when they’re together on the same continent.
“There was one point where we were in St. Louis, where David is from, and that was a 15-hour drive [to Serena in Miami, Florida]. So that was a little excessive. I said, you know, when we’re back on the same continent, we’ll have to get tested and make sure everything’s okay so we could see each other.”
Caroline Wozniacki misses her last match
Following the Australian Open 2020, Caroline Wozniacki decided to hang her racquets forever. She is diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis which changes a few things forever. She stated that her retirement was not due to the illness but because she wanted to lead her personal life from now on.
Wozniacki and Serena were supposed to play an exhibition match in Copenhagen. However, due to the COVID-19 crisis, it was called off. Although the Danish hopes it will be played as she wants to thank her countrymen for supporting her throughout.
