Belinda Bencic is only 22 years old but has already set a retirement mark and says that she does not want to beat Serena Williams but still wants to get the best out of her career.

The Swiss ace added that she firmly wants to start a family one day while saying she has given it everything at the end of her career.

As well as of course, for Bencic achieving the main goal of accruing as much prize money as possible is another of her goals.

"I am not planning to play until 35 years of age. It would be nice to have a family one day. I have no idea about how much more time I will play.

I do not want to beat Serena Williams. I just want to get the best out of my career. And when I stop, I want to say that I gave everything. But I would still like to have a great life after and I want to save a bit of my prize money for what happens after."
