Caroline Wozniacki recently expressed her admiration for Serena Williams’ latest picture from her vacation in the Bahamas.
Williams and Wozniacki have been close friends for many years. They have faced each other 11 times on tour, with Williams leading the head-to-head 10-1. They have also teamed up for doubles, most recently at the 2020 ASB Classic in Auckland, where they lost to Asia Muhammad and Taylor Townsend in straight sets in the final.
Williams, who retired from professional tennis at the 2022 US Open, recently enjoyed some well-deserved downtime in the Bahamas, where she soaked up the sun and the sea with her family.
On Wednesday, January 24, Williams took to Instagram to share a photo from her vacation in the Bahamas. In the picture, the American can be seen making a jumping mid-air pose at the seashore while wearing a black swimsuit and shades.
"Them: Don’t start jumping to conclusions… Me:" Williams wrote.
Wozniacki commented on the post with a heart and fire emoji.

"When Serena Williams was on, I don't think anyone here would be able to beat her" - Caroline Wozniacki
Caroline Wozniacki recently expressed her belief that former tennis star Serena Williams would have defeated all of the current top 10 players on the WTA's circuit.
During a media interaction leading up to the 2024 Australian Open, Wozniacki shared her perspective on comparing present-day top-ranked players with those from half a decade ago.
"I think it's hard to - I don't know - compare the old top 10 with the new top 10. Obviously, a few of the players that are in the top 10 now or top of the game were playing when the old top 10 was there," Wozniacki said.
Wozniacki added that she finds it challenging to draw comparisons between someone like Serena Williams and the younger generation, saying that the American could easily outplay them.
"I mean, you can't really compare someone to Serena, in my opinion. I think when Serena was on, when she was playing her best tennis, I don't think anyone here would be able to beat her. I'm saying that with having played basically anyone on tour," she added.
