<p>Danish tennis star Caroline Wozniacki has apologised after a joke over a leg injury backfired.</p>
<p>Wozniacki wore a small bandage on her leg during her last-16 victory over Anastasija Sevastova at the Australian Open and said afterwards she had been injured after being attacked by a kangaroo.</p>
<p>Only when the story started to emerge in newspapers and on websites around the world did the world number one reveal she actually sustained the bump walking into a treadmill.</p>
<p>She told the assembled media: &#8220;I just wanted to say I&#8217;m sorry if I&#8217;ve caused any harm or made your job a little bit more difficult. But the kangaroo story, I made it up because it sounded better than what actually happened.</p>
<p>&#8220;I walked into a treadmill so that wasn&#8217;t really&#8230;you know.</p>
<p>&#8220;That&#8217;s my blonde, sometimes that happens.</p>
<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m sorry if I caused an inconvenience, I really didn&#8217;t mean to. I didn&#8217;t think you would believe it.</p>
<p>&#8220;I heard that the story was getting out there and actually a lot of people believed it.</p>
<p>&#8220;Then I thought it&#8217;s better that I come back and apologise because I heard that to get the story pulled back again was quite a bit of work.&#8221;</p>
<p>Asked what prompted her to make the story up, she added: &#8220;It came up in the Danish press. They asked me happened to my leg with the cut. I didn&#8217;t think it sounded too good that I actually walked into the treadmill. I was like&#8230;okay&#8230;kangaroo, we&#8217;re in Australia, so a kangaroo scratched me. I thought that was a bit funny.&#8221;</p>
