Sara Errani, one of Italy’s most beloved tennis players, has finally made a decision that has surprised all of her fans: after the Madrid tournament, the champion decided to retire from professional tennis. The news comes at a very special time in her life, as Errani is 8 weeks pregnant and is about to begin a new phase of her life, away from the spotlight and closer to her family.

Errani’s retirement marks the end of an extraordinary career. With numerous titles in both singles and doubles, including a prestigious Roland Garros in doubles, Sara managed to establish herself as one of the most respected players in the world circuit. Her tactical play and resilience on the court have inspired many young female players, and her commitment to promoting women’s tennis has had a significant impact.

During an emotional press conference, Sara shared with journalists and her supporters that her body no longer responds as it once did, and that after giving everything for tennis, it’s time to focus on her family. “Tennis has been everything to me, but now my life is changing in a wonderful way. I am happy to embark on this new adventure with my partner by my side,” said Errani, visibly moved.

Sara’s partner, whom the tennis player referred to with great affection, is said to be excited about embarking on this new chapter of their life together. While the future mother has not revealed many details about her pregnancy, she expressed her desire to enjoy every moment of the sweet wait and take a break from the world of tennis to focus on her health and her family’s well-being.

Many fans are already wondering what Sara will do after her retirement. Although she hasn’t yet revealed all her future plans, she hinted at a possible involvement in training young talents, perhaps to pass on the experience she has accumulated over her career. Her passion for tennis will not fade, but it will change shape, and it’s not out of the question that Errani could also pursue a career in television or sports commentary, given her experience and deep knowledge of the game.

As Sara prepares to face a new phase of her life, her fans can only wish her the best for the future. After years of sacrifice, it’s time for her to enjoy motherhood and her future with her partner, a new exciting adventure that will undoubtedly change the course of her life.

Sara Errani’s farewell to tennis leaves a void in the hearts of many, but also a legacy of dedication, passion, and love for her sport.
