The 32-year-old two-time major winner Halep fell to Paula Badosa 1-6, 6-4, 6-3 in her first match back after a four-year drug suspension that was eventually shortened to nine months.
Although Wozniacki stated that players like Halep “should work their way from the bottom,” Halep was awarded a wildcard for Miami.
Wozniacki declared, “I have always wanted a clean sport, fair for everybody.”
“This is not directly at Simona, but if someone purposely cheats, if someone has tested positive for doping, I don’t think people should be awarded wildcards afterwards.”
“If you wish to return and it was an error, I understand,” the Dane continued.
Simona Halep loses at the Miami Open after her doping ban is lifted, and Caroline Wozniacki criticizes the wildcard.
Caroline Wozniacki believes that players who have been suspended for doping shouldn't be given wildcards upon their return, especially in light of Simona Halep's defeat in Miami.
