Caroline Wozniacki came through a tough test in her first-round match at the Australian Open - but turned her attention to her beloved Liverpool afterwards as she revealed her sadness at Steven Gerrard's departure. Wozniacki was pushed hard in the first set by 18-year-old Taylor Townsend but eventually went on to secure a 7-6 (7-1), 6-2 victory to progress to the last 64 on Tuesday. But the post-match discussion was not all about tennis as Gerrard's impending summer switch to LA Galaxy was brought up in Wozniacki's press conference.
