British tennis star Kyle Edmund has officially called time on his glittering career. A former British No. 1, Edmund enjoyed a breakthrough season in 2018 when he reached the Australian Open semi-final and later broke into the world’s top 15. But injuries derailed his career, and Edmund has spent the last few years mainly competing on the ITF circuit.
The 30-year-old has now announced his retirement in an emotional video. “It just felt right,” he told the LTA, admitting that he decided to retire because he failed to achieve his comeback goals after undergoing three surgeries from 2020 to 2021.
