Caroline Wozniacki is enjoying a terrific U.S. Open. On Monday, the 20-year-old sensation ousted Maria Sharapova to advance to the quarterfinals. Her dress, which barely covered any of her legs, was noticeable to many viewers. After the match, Wozniacki was asked about the outfit during a press conference.
"I think it's nice," she said, adding that she will "get a lot of male fans now" due to the revealing dress. Previously, she shared her thoughts on "very pretty" Anna Kournikova.
The Danish tennis player is not the only woman to draw attention due to her U.S. Open attire. Venus Williams' skimpy dress was a hot topic over Labor Day weekend.

A finalist at the 2009 U.S. Open, Caroline Wozniacki had never made it past the fourth round of a major before her run in New York last September. The No. 9 seed in that tournament, Wozniacki upset Svetlana Kuznetsova, the 2004 champion, in the fourth round, en route to the final, where she fell in straight sets to Kim Clijsters. Wozniacki’s rise to the top tier of the women’s game has been rapid: She played her first full season on tour in 2007, cracking the Top 100 for the first time and finishing the year ranked No. 64. In 2008, she won the first three tour titles of her career, made the fourth rounds of the Australian and U.S. Opens, and finished the season with a No. 12 ranking. She added three more titles in 2009, made the fourth round of Wimbledon in addition to the final of the U.S. Open, and on October 26, 2009, reached a career-high No. 4, which is where she was ranked to end the season. Before Wozniacki, no Danish player—male or female—had ever cracked the Top 30. Wozniacki won the Wimbledon junior title in 2006. An ethnic Pole born in Denmark, Wozniacki is coached by her father, Piotr, a Polish former pro soccer player. Wozniacki’s mother, Anna, played volleyball for Poland’s national team. Her brother, Patrik, plays pro soccer in Denmark.
