Caroline had exacted revenge in the very next Grand Slam tournament, the 2019 Wimbledon, where she had defeated Veronika in the 2nd round.
2. When she had won the doubles title at the 2019 Wuhan Open, her maiden trophy on the WTA Tour, she and her partner Duan Yingying had defeated the newly-crowned US Open champions Elise Mertens and Aryna Sabalenka in the final. Interestingly, this was the first time that Veronika and Duan had played together at a tournament.

3. She had also participated in the singles format of that event where she had reached the 3rd round which had helped her reach a career-high ranking of 42. During the tournament, she had also defeated Belinda Bencic which was her first career singles win over a player ranked in the ‘Top 10’.
4. As of March 2021, she had one ‘Double Bagel’ performance (the feat of winning a match with a scoreline of 6–0, 6–0) to her name. This had happened when she had thrashed Barbara Haas in the first round of the 2020 Linz Open.
