Argentine tennis player Sergio Roitman has announced his intention to retire
from professional tennis at the conclusion of the Copa Petrobas, an ATP World
Tour Challenger tournament in Buenos Aires. The Buenos Aires native was
joined by his life-long coach, Alejandro Lombardo as he made the announcement
at the draw ceremony on Saturday.
"It is a strange moment for me, but the time has come for me to leave
professional tennis,” said Roitman. “Physically, I cannot compete at the
highest level anymore. I think this is the best place to retire, at a
tournament that has given me a lot of pleasure and surrounded by people that
have helped me and whom I love very much. I extend my warmest thanks to Ale
(Lombardo), because he has always been by my side and with him I have
achieved the best victories of my sporting career.”
The 30-year-old Roitman is currently No. 124 in the South African Airways
2009 ATP Rankings. He reached a career-high No. 62 in singles on 8 October
2007, and achieved his highest doubles ranking (No. 45) on 8 September 2008.
During his 14-year career he amassed $1,287,217 in prize money and won two
ATP World Tour doubles titles at Amsterdam in 2000 and the ATP Studena
Croatia Open in 2001, both with Andres Schneiter.
雖然Esopeta不是什麼大咖,atp官網也寫了篇新聞,因為肩傷困擾,加上今年來
要贏球越來越困難,讓他做出結束職業網球的決定。
他選了本週南美挑戰巡迴賽的阿根廷站作為終點,對長年在挑戰賽打滾的他,應該
再適合不過了。
