	BIOGRAPHY | GALLERY | GOSSIP | BLOG

Caroline Wozniacki, born on July 11, 1990, in Denmark, is a Danish tennis player. She achieved her career-high rank of #32 on June 9, 2008.

Wozniacki has always been a sports fan – like the rest of her family. Her parents, Piotr and Anna Wozniacki, have both been professional athletes. Anna played volleyball for Poland, and Piotr can look back on a career as professional soccer player. The Polish couple moved to Denmark in the late eighties when Piotr went to play for the Danish soccer club B1909 in Odense.

Already from the age of two, Wozniacki and her four year elder brother Patrik received physical education, and they were taught how to swim at the age of four. As her elder brother started playing soccer, Caroline wanted to play the game as well. And as he took up tennis, she followed closely in his footsteps and instantly fell in love with the sport. Caroline could be seen playing tennis for hours with her dad in the tennis club of their home town Køge. She didn’t seem to be able to get enough of the game, constantly pushing her dad to play yet another match with her.

The hard training quickly paid off. Nine-year old Wozniacki started to win the matches against the rest of her family. When she won the singles title in the Osaka Mayor’s Cup in Japan at 14 years of age in October 2004, it was clear that she had the potential to achieve great results as a tennis player. Since then, she has won quite a few titles, with her victory in the Junior Championships in Wimbledon 2006 as one of the greatest yet.

Apart from the hard daily training and the tournaments around the world, Wozniacki also goes to school. This fall she’ll start a four-year high school education. That means that she’ll have plenty to do in between matches, doing her homework. But she wouldn’t miss it for the world, because she loves to read and to spent time with her friends from school. Luckily, the highschool she’s going to attend has a special line for athletes, giving her the possibility to take more time off from school than what is normally allowed.
