The winner Caroline Wozniacki on January 15, 2018 during a training session at the Australian Open

The women's singles of the Australian Open 2018 was a tennis competition in Melbourne .

Last year's winner was Serena Williams , who did not run due to lack of fitness due to pregnancy and the birth of her daughter in September 2017. With Caroline Wozniacki , a tennis player from Denmark won a Grand Slam tournament for the first time . In the final she defeated Simona Halep 7: 6, 2 , 3: 6 and 6: 4. With her victory in the final, Wozniacki reached the top of the world rankings again after exactly six years . Serena Williams, on the other hand, lost the points of the previous year's victory due to her non-participation and is after more than 20 years in the world rankings, where she was first listed as No. 453 from October 20, 1997, no longer in the computer ranking from January 29th.
