Caroline Wozniacki, a former No. 1 tennis player, will retire after the Australian Open in January, she said on Friday.
“I’ve played professionally since I was 15 years old,” she said in a statement. “I’ve accomplished everything I could ever dream of on the court.”
Wozniacki, 29, also alluded to the goal of having children with her husband, David Lee, a former player for the Knicks.
“Getting married to David was one of those goals and starting a family with him while continuing to travel the world and helping raise awareness about rheumatoid arthritis (project upcoming) are all passions of mine moving forward,” Wozniacki wrote.
