Show 'Em Caroline!
Current world #1, Caroline Wozniacki, gets another chance in the world spotlight as the Wimbledon tournament starts this week. I'm happy though that she played only one grass tournament in Copenhagen, which she won handily. At least she's not tired because this draw is going to be a difficult one, what with the Williams sisters on it. However, she may not have to meet any of them until the semi's or finals, if both make it through, so Caroline is in a safer side of the draw. She has Maria Sharapova though, who I think, will give her the biggest headache, on her side of the draw.
Frankly, it's about time Caroline show some respect for her #1 ranking. At least, she should finish in the semifinals, no less, and she has what it takes to do that. It's about time she shows everyone in the field that she really deserves that #1 ranking. The last French Open has shown that a #6 player in Li Na could do it. The year before, Francesca Schiavone, made it, and she was only in the Top 20 at that time.
So no more excuses, Caroline. Time to show the world why you really are #1.
