    Tennis - Former World No. 1 Ana Ivanovic retires

    The 29-year-old told her fans that she made the decision to retire after coming to the realisation that she is no longer capable of competing at her highest level.
    FACEBOOK
    "After 13 years of playing tennis professionally, I have taken the extremely difficult decision to retire from competitive tennis," Ivanovic said in a statement. "This has been a tough decision, but there is so much to celebrate.
    "I began dreaming about tennis when I was five years old and saw Monica Seles. My dear parents backed me all the way, and by the time I was ranked #1 in the world in 2008 I had seen highs I'd never dreamed of.

    Cute but if she was going to retire for this reason, she should have done it 2 or 3 years ago. At least.

    You knew it was coming watching her matches towards the end of the year.
    Her serve looked even more horrific than in the past. She couldn't beat anyone.
    She had clocked out mentally already was just finishing up the year.
    Made some scores fading her in 2016, always overpriced.
