Former top five player Jo-Wilfried Tsonga set to retire after Roland Garros: "I gave everything I had"

Jo-Wilfried Tsonga will retire from professional tennis after Roland Garros, he has confirmed in an interview with the All In Group.
The former top five star sealed 18 titles in his career and reached the final of Australian Open and semi-finals at the French Open and Wimbledon.
This in an era dominated by the Big Four in tennis (Djokovic, Federer, Nadal and Murray). He has constantly battled injuries as of late but returned to action earlier this season at the Open Sud de France only to now take this decision to retire on home soil.
"I'm happy, I feel good about myself. I'm also a bit sad because I'm leaving the thing that has been the driving force in my life and that has offered me extraordinary things. But I gave everything I had in this thing. I'm stopping thinking that I've gone all the way," he said on the interview below.

- A lot of top players with injuries now. Could be a coincidence. Still we have a lot of big tournaments in 4/5 months.
AceOfBase06-05-2024 - Iga never gets an easy draw in any tournament she plays. So that statement is far from the truth. Sabalenka has difficulty because all she wants to do is stand up and serve. She is not a tennis player. If she gets the opponents Iga have, she would be ousted earlier.crissy06-05-2024
