Amalie Mauresmo Retires From Tennis

France - 30-year-old Amalie Mauresmo announced today her retirement from professional tennis, saying she no longer had a desire to train. Mauresmo finished this season at No. 21.

Mauresmo was ranked No. 1 in 2004, and in 2006, she won both of her Grand Slam titles at the Australian Open and Wimbledon. She also had seven wins over Top 10 players this last year, but did not compete in the last two tournaments of the year. Her last match was in the second round of the 2009 U.S. Open, when she was defeated by Aleksandra Wozniak of Canada 6-4 6-0.

Asked about a possible comeback, Mauresmo said her decision was definitive. "Even if I've learned to never say never," the Frenchwoman said. "The players you are thinking about stopped earlier than me before coming back."
