Nathalie Dechy, 30, has decided to call it quits.
The Frenchie is expecting a child and wants to devote time to her family according to a statement released by the French Tennis Federation.
She reached a career-high No. 11 in 2006 and her best Grand Slam result was in 2005 when she reached the Aussie Open semifinals losing to Lindsay Davenport after being two points away from the final during the second set tiebreak.
So long Nathalie and good luck in life!

Please, don't let this give Amelie Mauresmo any ideas, because...
ReplyDeleteI don't know what I'll do without her.
Nobody has that one handed backhand and abs like hers.
So...
Just, please.
...
Oh, and WHY, Nathalie, WHYYYY?
*sobs brokenly*
*offers kleenex*
ReplyDeleteHA - good point though Stephiee. Amelie probably is thinking something along the same lines since winning isn't her thing right now and she's been so prone to injury.
I guess we'll see.
