In a replay of the 2009 U.S. Open final won by Clijsters in straight sets, the Belgian player had an early service break in the second set before breaking Wozniacki’s serve again to lead 4-2.
Clijsters, who sprained her left ankle in a fourth-round win over Li Na, did not appear to be affected Tuesday by the injury.
Wozniacki, criticized for holding the No. 1 spot without winning a major, needed to advance to at least the semifinals to have any hope of keeping the top ranking.
