Spain's former world No. 1 and Wimbledon and French Open champion Garbine Muguruza announced her retirement at a news conference on Saturday, making the extended break she had announced a year ago a permanent step.
Venezuelan-born Muguruza won the French Open in 2016 and Wimbledon in 2017, and she reached the final of the Australian Open in 2020. Last April she said she would take a break from competition to spend more time with her family.
"I didn't miss the discipline and the difficulty of the life I had before. I have been realising that what I most want to look forward to is my next chapter and not the tennis chapter," she said at a news conference in Madrid.
Muguruza, 30, was ranked No. 1 in 2017 and was ranked as high as third by the end of 2021 when she won three WTA titles.
