By ATP staff
Milos Raonic announced his retirement on social media on Monday after an illustrious career that saw him reach No. 3 in the PIF ATP rankings.
“The time has come, I’m going to retire from tennis. This is a moment that you know will come one day, but somehow you never feel ready for it. This is as ready as I will ever be. Tennis has been my love and obsession for most of my life,” the 35-year-old wrote on X.
“I’ve been the luckiest person living and living my dreams. I had to show up every day and focus on just getting better, seeing where that would take me, and playing a game I was introduced to at age 8, through complete luck. Somehow this became my whole obsession and childhood, and then it became my profession and life.”
The time has come, I’m quitting tennis. This is a moment that you know will come one day, but somehow you never feel ready for it. This is as ready as I’ll ever be. Tennis has been my love and obsession for most of my life.
I have been the happiest person to live…
