Overview
- Caroline Wozniacki wrote on Instagram that Peter Bastiansen has personally attacked her in the media for over 20 years.
- She called him a clown and questioned his expertise, pointing to his career-high ranking of No. 224 and lack of top-level results.
- Responding to his assertion that an Australian Open entry would be absurd, she noted her protected No. 71 ranking means she would not need a wildcard.
- Bastiansen had told B.T. that Wozniacki should declare her future, predicted she would never play at top level again, and doubted organizers would invite her.
- He later said he does not want a war of words and acknowledged she has every right to respond as she did.
