At the age of 20, Vadisova announces retirement from competitive tennis.
|
I was reading through the Daily Tennis Newsletter I get in my e-mail everyweek and came across this tidbit of news I thought I'd share.
Nicole Vadisova at the young age of 20 has announced her retirement from the WTA tour. She's scheduled to marry ATP tour player
Radek Stepanek this upcoming July. She reached the Semi-finals of the '06 French Open and '07 Australian Open before losing her passion to play. After refusing to hear pleas from her camp to turn things around she went 11-17 in 2009.
Sources told Daily Tennis she couldn't contend with losing and began to lose her passion for the sport.
What do you guys think about this? I think if she had began to take a fresh mindset and find the will to win she could have easily worked her way back into the top 20, she has so much potential and it's sad to see she's giving up at such an early age, hopefully she retires and attends college somewhere to pursue another trade.
She's ending her career ranked #176.
What's on your mind?
