Sania Mirza retires from tennis after WTA 1000 event next month
DUBAI – Indian tennis star Sania Mirza announces retirement from Tenis. She will retire next month at the age of 36 after the Dubai Tennis Championships, marking the end of her professional career that was started two decades back.
One of the greatest women’s tennis players announced to hang her boots next month in a recent interview with the Women’s Tennis Association (WTA).
Sania, who has been dealing with a calf injury, cited the age factor as a key reason as she decided to not push her body. “I really don’t have the capacity in my mind to emotionally push that much anymore,” she said, adding that her priorities are not the same anymore.
She will be appearing in women’s doubles at the Australian Open alongside Anna Danilina this month in her final attendance at a Grand Slam event. The ace athlete earlier planned to bid adieu at the end of the 2022 season but was ruled out in wake of an elbow injury.
After hanging her boots after 2 decades of professional tennis, Sania mentioned focusing on her academics in UAE, where she has resided after marriage with Pakistan’s former cricket Shoaib Malik.
The 36-year-old pushed the sports to new heights for South Asian women after winning six Grand Slam doubles titles. She etched her name in history as the first Indian to win a Women’s Tennis Association singles title.
