Wozniacki exits from Oz Open following third round defeat

Danish tennis ace Caroline Wozniacki has failed to fulfill her dream of attaining the first Grand Slam of her career after her third-round exit from the Australian Open on Thursday.

The former world number one, who is engaged to golf ace Rory McIlroy, was defeated 4-6, 7-5, 6-3 by Spaniard Garbine Muguruza Blanco at the Rod Laver Arena on Saturday.

The defeat came after Wozniacki expressed confidence on winning the Australian Open after a successful second round win over unseeded American Christina McHale. (ANI)
