Wozniacki knocked out of Australian Open

Struggling Dane loses in straight sets to Victoria Azarenka

Jan 22, 2015

Caroline Wozniacki's bid to win her first Grand Slam tournament ended in the second round at the Australian Open today. She lost in straight sets to unseeded Victoria Azarenka, the former world number one and two-time grand slam winner.

The eighth-seeded Dane opened sluggishly and didn't have an answer to the Belarusian's aggressive play, eventually succumbing 4-6, 2-6 in just over an hour and a half.

Winners win it
Azarenka, who won the Australian Open in 2012 and 2013, committed 28 unforced errors to Woznaicki's 20, but hit 31 winners to the Dane's 19.

As Wozniacki packs her bags to head home, Azarenka moves on to face Barbora Zahlavova Strycova from Czech Republic in the third round.
