Svetlana Kuznetsova makes huge confession about Simona Halep’s retirement
Simona Halep’s career has just ended, although the Romanian champion would have liked her last years to be more peaceful on and off the court. The two-time Grand Slam champion had to spend her last energies to solve the doping case that concerned her and did not have the ending that a legend of her caliber would have deserved.
After being defeated by Lucia Bronzetti at the Transilvania Open this week, the former world No.1 announced her decision to retire to start a new chapter in her life. During her speech, Halep made it clear to fans that tennis is no longer her priority and that her body no longer responds adequately to the demands of professional tennis.
Knowing that she can no longer compete at the highest level, Simona preferred to end her career avoiding dragging herself from one tournament to another without any ambition of victory (as many champions have done before her).
