ashleigh barty retires stops playing tennis at 25 years old

Tennis star, Ashleigh Barty, has announced that she will stop playing the game professionally.

The Australian star is making the announcement after winning three Grand Slam singles events, including this year’s Australian Open in January.

Giving her reason for her early retirement in Tennis, Ashleigh Barty said it was simply because she has given her best and all she has, and there is nothing more.

“I know how much work it takes to bring the best out of yourself. I’ve said it to my team multiple times, ‘I just don’t have that in me any more.’ Physically, I have nothing more to give. I’ve given absolutely everything I have to this beautiful sport of tennis, and I’m really happy with that.

“For me, that is my success. Thank you to everyone who has supported me along the way. I’ll always be grateful for the lifelong memories we created together.”
