As said by her, Caroline Wozniacki has a memorable past at the Indian Wells and the Miami Masters. Caroline first played at the Indian Wells in 2007. Entering the tournament as a wildcard, the then World No. 138 won her first round with ease. However, faced a second-round exit against the 3rd seeded Martina Hingis. On the other hand, she made her Miami debut in 2008, reaching the fourth round.

Even though Wozniacki showed decent performances in both tournaments in the initial years, she failed to win the title. In 2010, she reached the finals of Indian Wells. However, her dream run came to half as she was defeated by the 6th seeded Jelena Jankovic in the finals. However, Caroline didn’t look to give up.

In 2011, Caroline again reached the finals of Indian Wells. Being the top-seeded player, Caroline sailed through the initial rounds to set up a final clash with 15th seeded Marion Bartoli. However, not willing to repeat history, Wozniacki showed no mercy, as she went on to win her maiden Indian Wells title in three sets.
Apart from 2010, Wozniacki also finished as a runner-up in 2013 at the Indian Wells. On the other hand, her best result at Miami was being the runner-up in 2017.
