Чешская теннисистка Николь Вайдишова во второй раз объявила о завершении карьеры. Спортсменка, дважды в карьере выходившая в полуфиналы турниров серии "Большого шлема", уже уходила из тенниса в 2010 году, но спустя четыре года возобновила выступления. Окончательное решение Вайдишовой вызвано хроническими травмами.

"Это одно из самых трудных моих решений в жизни. После долгих месяцев размышления я приняла решение уйти из профессионального тенниса. Как многие знают, на протяжении последних двух лет я постоянно боролась с травмами, и сейчас все достигло той точки, когда я больше времени провожу у врачей, чем на корте. Это было болезненно и утомительно, но я не хочу доводить свой организм до крайней точки", - написала спортсменка в своей аккаунте в Instagram.

So...This has been one of the hardest words for me to write.After months and months of thinking and agonizing about this, I have decided to retire from professional tennis.It has been one of my hardest and most emotional decisions of my life.As many of you know,I have been struggling with various injuries on/off for the better part of the last 2 years and it has gotten to the point where I have spent more time in hospitals,physical therapy and doctors offices then on the court,playing the sport I love.This has been painful and exhausting,not just on my body,but on my mind as well and I have reached the point where I did not want to put my body throught it anymore.Coming to this final decision took me months,as even through all the ups and dows,it is a game I grew to love for what it is.Ever since I decided to come back 3 years ago,it has been a roller coaster ride of huge highs and lows,on and off the court.I am forever grateful and feeling so incredibly lucky to have had the unwavering support and uncoditional love of my family,friends,Daniel,as well as my medical and tennis team.Without them,it would have been imspossible to come back.My tennis career has been anything but ordinary,but above every opinion,comment and what ifs,I can proudly say it has been MINE.I do not regret any decision,good or bad,as it has made me the person I am today.As I close this chapter of my life,I look back in amazement at everything I was able to do.I am proud to have been able to compete with the best athletes in my sport and represent the Czech Republic,the country I love,in many fed cups and Olympics,it has been an honor.Finally,I can never thank all of you enough for all the support and words of encouragement that I have received over the years,it has meant the world to me and kept me going when I wanted to give up.Thank you,from the bottom of my heart,I will never be able to express enough gratitude to every single one of you,I am so honored. 20 years ago, this little girl had a dream,and today, I can say it has come true ??
