When Caroline Wozniacki waved farewell to the professional tennis circuit in January 2020, the retiring former world number one genuinely thought that was it.
For a long while after her emotional goodbye - which saw the Australian Open crowd serenade her with Neil Diamond's anthemic 'Sweet Caroline' - Wozniacki did not even know where her racquets were.
The fire reignited shortly after the 33-year-old gave birth to her second child last October, leading to the announcement in June she would return to the WTA Tour.
After playing in Montreal and Cincinnati, she springs back to Grand Slam action at the US Open on Monday.
