Danielle Collins claps back at someone in the crowd. “You come out and you play. Come out here and do what I do, okay? Have a little more respect.” Respect the athletes.

Caroline Wozniacki says that everyone grieves in a different way & she can’t imagine what Aryna Sabalenka is going through “Going to be careful in the way I ask this question. One of your colleagues is dealing with a horrific situation. You're a veteran, beloved player, colleague. Is it something you're able to address with that person and take a leadership role on or it's just too private to talk about?” Caroline: “I can't even imagine what she's going through right now. I'm saying that. I'm also tearing up. It's such a terrible situation. It's so hard. I reached out to her and I told her that I was here if she needed anything. I love Aryna. I think she's such a great person. She's always so happy and out there. To see her go through that, it's heartbreaking. I can't even imagine what she's going through right now. Everyone grieves in a different way. She was walking past today. I was giving her her space. I let her know that if she ever needs anything, I'm here, we’re here for her.” ❤️ (via Miami Open Press)

Caroline Wozniacki says she doesn’t believe players should be awarded wildcards after testing positive for doping “Another comeback in Simona. Your thoughts there?” Caroline: “First of all, I’ve always liked Simona. We've always had a good relationship. I've been very outspoken in the past how I feel about doping and all of that. I think my view on doping is the same. I have always wanted a clean sport, fair for everybody. I think it's definitely still my opinion. Again, this is not directly at Simona, but if someone purposely cheats, if someone has tested positive for doping... I understand why a tournament wants a big star in the tournament, but it's my personal belief, and it's not a knock on anyone, but it's my personal belief that I don't think people should be awarded wild cards afterwards. If you want to come back, and it's been a mistake, I understand, you should work your way up from the bottom. That's my personal opinion upon things. Simon's situation has obviously dragged on for a long time. She got her suspension reduced. It wasn't a clearance, it was a reduced sentence. She's now been off of the game for a while and she's coming back. Again, I just hope for a clean sport. That's all I want. I want to have good role models for the young generation. It's a sport that has a lot of money in it, a lot of competitiveness, a lot of competitors. I want a fair fight. I've always been a very honest athlete and always looked at everything that I've taken. Even taking Tylenol is something I double and triple check three times. All I want is for my kids to look up and say, You know what, I want to play tennis and I want to play fair. I still got a chance. I want to be out there competing fair and square with everyone else. That's my view on things, how I'm raising my kids as well. Fight fair. No matter where you're going to be, what you want to do, just do it with the right mindset, yeah. That's where I am.” (via Miami Open Press)
