Wozniacki wows with comeback announcement

3 years have past since Caroline Wozniacki graced the courts of the WTA. But thats about the change. The former world number 1 just dropped a bombshell announcing her return to the tour in less than a few months.

The 2018 Australian Open champion told Vogue she aims play the Canadian Open in August then the US Open, which has already said they will give her a wild card to enter. Giving birth to 2 children has definitely given her some pretty big confidence too. When asked about the return, Wozniacki said:

"Can I win the US Open? I think so. Can I win the Australian Open? I think so. That's why I'm doing this. And I guess we'll see what happens.

She’s joining a growing list of mum’s successfully returning to the tour - Victoria Azarenka, Kim Clijsters, and Serena Williams. And she wants to inspire more women to return to their playing careers.

Well we can raise a glass of Danish aquavit to that!

López luck runs out

Feliciano López’s luck runs out at the Mallorca Championships in the quarters, putting an end to his long, long, long career. He hangs up his racquet at the ripe age of 41 years.

Downed by the German Yannick Hanfman 4 &2, who just a day earlier ended Tsitsipas’ party, López leaves us after 26 seasons as a pro, 7 singles titles, 6 doubles and being the all-time Spanish grasscourt match winner with 87 wins on the surface (11 more than Nadal). Hats off (or should we say Sombrero’s off) to Feliciano. Respect.

Alcaraz pairs up with Louis Vuitton

Fresh off his Queen’s win, Carlos ‘All about the endorsements’ Alcaraz has added Louis Vuitton to his list of brand name partners - Nike, Rolex, Calvin Klein.

“It’s such a dream to me to be a part of the Louis Vuitton family,” grinned Alcaraz in a new video released on Instagram.

Speaking about the new partnership Carlos expressed how the always saw LV as the ‘pinnacle of elegance’.

“I saw people with Louis Vuitton bags and I always wanted to get one of those.”

Well now you can Carlos…for free. The rest of us will just have to keep dreaming.
