Caroline Wozniacki is having no trouble filling in for Serena Williams as the #1 seed. So far in her 2010 U.S. Open play, she actually makes it look like a natural fit. Wozniacki has yet to drop a set. She's yet to drop more than one game per set, if she even gives up a game that is.
In terms of grand slams this year, her performance has been less than par. Losing 4th round in both the Australian Open and Wimbledon, Wozniacki didn't seem to be a top favorite coming into the tournament. But she is wowing the competition and the fans with each progressing match.
Her next opponent will be Maria Sharapova who walked over American teen Beatrice Capra in a 6-0,6-0 victory. Perhaps she heard the whispers of a repeat from last year when she fell to the young Melanie Oudin. Sharapova suffered a rocky road the past couple of years. Plagued by multiple injuries, she has had to climb her way back up the WTA ladder. But if there is one thing Maria possess giving her the upper hand, it is her ability to have iron-clad focus on the court.
