Tennis Legend Caroline Wozniacki's 'Body Paint' Photo Had Everyone's Attention

Caroline Wozniacki is best known for her skills on a tennis court, but make no mistake, she had quite a run with Sports Illustrated Swimsuit.

Wozniacki, the former No. 1 women's tennis player in the world, has been covering the 2026 French Open for TNT along with Andre Agassi, Genie Bouchard, Chris Eubanks, John Isner, Sam Querrey and Sloane Stephens.

"This talented lineup for Roland Garros will deliver an energetic blend of authenticity, credibility, and personality to every moment of this iconic major," TNT said in a press release. "In our second year, we will continue to push the coverage delivering a presentation that's as dynamic and distinctive as the event itself."

We'r not surprised to say that Wozniacki's analysis has been sharp all tournament. As for how she's perceived by the fans, let's just say she's been quite popular for a long time.

After making her SI Swimsuit debut in 2015, Wozniacki was invited back the following year to participate in the "Body Paint" series.

"I just couldn't say no," Wozniacki said. "It was an unbelievable opportunity for me and something I've never done before. I feel like a piece of art walking around right now. It's kind of a surreal experience." 

To this day, Wozniacki's 2016 photoshoot is considered one of the best in SI Swimsuit's history.

Caroline Wozniacki had a great run.

Wozniacki finished her time on the WTA Tour with 30 singles titles. The highlight of her career was winning the 2018 Australian Open in a three-set thriller against Simona Halep.

"I've dreamt of this moment for so many years and to be here today is a dream come true," Wozniacki said after capturing her first Grand Slam title in Melbourne. "My voice is shaky. I never cry, but today it's a very emotional moment."

Although she came out of retirement in 2023, it doesn't seem like we'll see Wozniacki back on the court anytime soon.
