NEW DELHI: Former Australian Open champion Caroline Wozniacki faced an unexpected exit on Wednesday as Russian qualifier Maria Timofeeva secured a remarkable second-round victory, defeating the 2018 winner 1-6, 6-4, 6-1.
The 33-year-old Dane, back on the circuit with her two young children, started strongly on John Cain Arena but couldn't sustain the momentum against Timofeeva's impressive performance.
