The ASB Classic's headline act Caroline Wozniacki has touched down in Auckland.
The world No 8 arrived in the city this morning, and said she was rearing to go ahead of the tournament, which starts on Monday.
"I'm really excited to start the year off here," she said on arrival.
"It's been quite a few years since I've been here, so it's nice to mix it up a little bit and try to play here again."
The tournament draw will be announced later this morning.
