The video, originally shared by another account, was captioned: "When David Lee pulled up to Rucker Park and started cooking." Caroline Wozniacki reposted it on her Instagram story, adding three emojis.

David Lee who has a two-time NBA All-Star under his belt, had a remarkable career that spanned over a decade. He began his journey with the New York Knicks before moving on to the Golden State Warriors, where he played a major role in their 2015 NBA Championship victory. Later, he had his tenure with the Boston Celtics and San Antonio Spurs before retiring in 2017.

Wozniacki and Lee got married in 2019. The duo share two children, Olivia Wozniacki Lee and James Wozniacki Lee. Wozniacki forged her legacy in tennis, winning 30 WTA titles and capturing her maiden Grand Slam title at the 2018 Australian Open.

Previously, Wozniacki also made headlines following her withdrawal from the 2024 Australian Open. The tournament was indeed special for the star as it was the site of her most significant career accolade when she defeated Simona Halep in a three-set thriller to win her first and only Grand Slam title.

The 34-year-old’s name was initially on the entry list but it was later crossed out. Wozniacki did not immediately provide a reason for pulling out. However, she later addressed the issue during a presentation ceremony at the tournament, where she brought out the Daphne Akhurst Memorial Cup.

Speaking to Eurosport, Wozniacki revealed that her battle with rheumatoid arthritis had impacted her ability to train effectively ahead of the season’s first Grand Slam. “My body was not feeling great. When I started pre-season training, I was struggling with my body a little bit,” she admitted. “I have rheumatoid arthritis, so it’s been an ongoing battle, but I am hoping with a little break I will be back again soon.”

Wozniacki has no plans to retire again. After making a comeback in 2023, she proved she still could compete as she reached the fourth round of the US Open before falling to eventual champion Coco Gauff. Her 2024 season had its ups and downs, with a 16-13 record in 29 matches.
