Ana Ivanovic insists she has no regrets about retiring from tennis in 2016 at the age of 29. Ivanovic was replying to fans' questions on X, where she was asked if she still thinks it was the right decision.
"No, it was the right decision at that time and I now have my beautiful family and still play some tennis from time to time of course," she said. The Serbian reached the top of the WTA rankings and won the French Open in 2008 during the peak of her career.
But injuries affected her performances and, despite having a resurgence to get into the top five in the world, Ivanovic announced on social media that she would step away from professional tennis.
The 36-year-old was also asked the year she felt her fittest on the Tour was. "Probably 2008. But I also liked 2014 - It was very different to 2008, I felt more mature and comfortable."
