What is wrong with her atm.
World number three Caroline Wozniacki said she hopes to become an inspiration for fellow sufferers of rheumatoid arthritis as her shock diagnosis drew support and sympathy on Friday.
The 28-year-old Dane revealed she was suffering from the condition after crashing out of the WTA Finals against Elina Svitolina late on Thursday, ending her title defence.
The reigning Australian Open champion and former world number one has since received a flood of supportive messages and well wishes on social media.
Wozniacki was diagnosed with the autoimmune disease, which causes swelling of the joints and fatigue, before the US Open. She said she felt unwell after Wimbledon, before waking up during the Rogers Cup in August unable to lift her arms.
"I thought it was just the flu," she told journalists in Singapore. "After the US Open, I just kind of had to figure out what really was going on.
"So that's when I really figured it out. I went to see one of the best doctors there is and start treatment.
"In the beginning, it was a shock. You feel like you're the fittest athlete out there... and all of a sudden you have this to work with. It is what it is, and you just have to be positive."
Wozniacki said the illness required daily management, and that there were some days when she struggles to get out of bed.
"It's a lifetime thing. It's not something that just goes away," she said. "You learn how to just cope after matches.
"Some days you wake up and you can't get out of bed and you just have to know that's how it is, but other days you're fine."
Halep and Cahill have parted ways. Not sure, who will replace Cahill. Those two worked well together
Lucie will not play any warm-up tournaments and will play singles and doubles and that's that. Made a French Open final(losing to Serena in 3) and also the semis of Wimbledon. But her best success came on the doubles court. Not sure if she was number 1 but her partnership with BMS probably was. In the end, she finishes with 5 GS double titles from 3 of the 4 opens.(she is missing Wimbledon). Though she will be a chance this summer for another one. They are that good together.PRAGUE -- Former French Open finalist Lucie Safarova will retire after the Australian Open in January due to health concerns and will not play in any tournaments before then.
Former Wimbledon finalist Agnieszka Radwanska announced Wednesday she is retiring from tennis after a 13-year career.
The 29-year-old Pole, who reached a career-high ranking of No. 2, says she is "no longer able to train and play the way I used to.''
Radwanska won 20 WTA titles in her career. She reached the Wimbledon final in 2012, losing to Serena Williams in three sets. Radwanska also reached the semifinals at the All England Club in 2013 and '15, as well as reaching the French Open semifinals in 2014 and '16
