Aleksandra Wozniak (born September 7, 1987 in Montreal, Quebec, Canada) is a Canadian professional tennis player. She turned professional in November 2005. Wozniak achieved a career-best ranking of No. 21 on June 22, 2009, making her the fourth highest-ranked Canadian singles player of all time. She has won one WTA and eleven ITF tournaments. At the Bank of the West Classic in Stanford in 2008, she became the first Canadian in 20 years to capture a WTA singles title and the first Quebecer in history to have accomplished such a feat. She reached a career-high ITF junior ranking of No. 3 on January 31, 2005. Wozniak was named Female Player of the Year by Tennis Canada five times (2004, 2006, 2008, 2009, 2012).
At the 2009 French Open, Wozniak became Canada's first representative in the fourth round of the French Open women's draw in 17 years, and the first Canadian woman to survive into the second week at the French Open since Patricia Hy-Boulais in 1992. Wozniak was also the first Canadian to reach the fourth round of a Grand Slam event since Maureen Drake qualified for the round of 16 at the 1999 Australian Open. At the 2012 Rogers Cup, she reached the quarterfinals at a Premier 5 tournament for the first time of her career, where she lost to Caroline Wozniacki. She became the first Canadian in 20 years (since Patricia Hy-Boulais in 1992) to reach the quarterfinals there. In 2014, Wozniak had to end her season prematurely to have shoulder surgery and only returned to competition eleven months after.
Wozniak won her first Fed Cup match in 2004, defeating Swiss Timea Bacsinszky and boasts a 40–12 record through April 2016. Her 40 total victories are a Canadian Fed Cup record, as are her 32 wins in singles. She has appeared in 36 ties during her career in the Fed Cup, also a record.
Wozniak's family immigrated to Canada from Poland in 1983, before she was born. She speaks Polish, English and French fluently. She has an elder sister Dorota who also played tennis. She started playing tennis at the age of three. She was inspired to pick up a racquet by her sister and Monica Seles, her idol growing up, and was coached by her father Antoni.

Notes
1 The first Premier 5 event of the year has switched back and forth between the Dubai Tennis Championships and the Qatar Ladies Open since 2009. Dubai was classified as a Premier 5 event from 2009–2011 before being succeeded by Doha for the 2012–2014 period. Since 2015, the two tournaments alternate between Premier 5 and Premier status every year.
2 In 2014, the Pan Pacific Open was downgraded to a Premier event and replaced by the Wuhan Open.
