Just 25 years old. How sad.

From that article:
Quote:
Maybe Barty has some desires about playing professional cricket. Maybe she’ll take her two Michael Jordan years off to pursue dreams in another sport. Maybe she has some non-athletic personal goals she wants to accomplish. Maybe she just needs some time off to miss the game and restoke the desire to achieve No. 1 again.

Barty is stepping away from tennis for now, but I wouldn’t bet on her retirement being for good.


If Tom Brady's "retirement" from the NFL can last only two months even though he is currently 44 years old, then I am already anticipating Barty's comeback. Wink
