As important as tennis

how you feel.

‘‘But I feel pretty good about it and it’s about figuring out what little things work for me work and what makes me feel good. You learn along the way.’’

Wozniacki had a nightmare trip to Auckland.

Her flight from Miami to Houston was cancelled because of a tropical storm and she couldn’t get on another flight that day.

Instead of coming via Houston, she came through San Francisco, a day later than expected.

‘‘I stayed at the airport for a few hours, to try to figure out how to get here as quick as possible,’’ she said.

‘‘When they told me I had to wait until the next day, I got to go home for a bit, which was not bad.

‘‘Obviously, I wish I was here yesterday and already underway with my preparation but you can’t really help the storms or the weather.’’

Wozniacki, who won the Australian Open at the beginning of 2018, is a regular at the Classic and reached the final in Auckland in 2015 and 2018.

Though lifting the trophy has proved elusive for her, she enjoys the tournament. ‘‘I love coming back here,’’ she said. ‘‘It gives me a great start to the season and I hope I can start off well here.

‘‘I had a great season last year and I’ve been playing well in the last few years, so I feel good.

‘‘The main thing is the body holds up.

‘‘Then, hopefully, I’ll have a great year this year.’’
