It was a 1st round match... The general idea is to win it at minimum cost and build from there.

Good to have them back one more time. Yes, Lisicki lost the plot, but that's not Caro's problem, it's Sabine's. If I noticed correctly Caroline 'not much is happening from her side of the court' Wozniacki's stats were 12 W and 8 UE. If so, that's vintage Woz. She's always gonna be hard to beat with those kind of stats.

Re: Caroline's Live Scoring Thread v 11
Yay!!!!!!!!!! Great comeback by Caro. I had to leave early in the 3rd set when she was losing.

OK, OK we'll let you live  Woz has confirmed the golden rule that it's never over until it's over.
Hopefully you'll stay with us for the R2 match.

I know I gave up on her too soon, but in my defence Caro had too many heartbreaking losses over (almost) past 2 years, so it's not easy to wath her matches lately! 
Anyway I'm happy she proved me wrong, hopefully this win will give her some confidence!
Here are some interesting match stats:

You were not the only one. If you reread the live scoring thread you will see that everybody gave up on her.

Re: Caroline's Live Scoring Thread v 11
HISENSE ARENA
11:00 AM
Women's Singles - 2nd Round
Shuai Peng (CHN) v Maria Kirilenko (RUS) [14]
Men's Singles - 2nd Round
Joao Sousa (POR) v Andy Murray (GBR) [3]
Women's Singles - 2nd Round
Caroline Wozniacki (DEN) [10] v Donna Vekic (CRO)
Peng - Makiri may go the distance but I'd be surprised if Murray doesn't win in straight sets (Sousa is ranked #100). Caro will probably be on between 3 and 4 PM local time/5 and 6 AM CET.

Re: Caroline's Live Scoring Thread v 11
This time is simply the worst. Right between getting to bed late and getting up early ..
Ah well, but here we are Karolina, you better make us proud, as if not, it won't only be Piotr yelling at you!!
Good luck
