Gulbis plans to retire after having kids

Natalie Gulbis envisions an end to her playing career, and it could come as soon as next year.

Gulbis, 32, told reporters Thursday at the North Texas Shootout that she plans to retire once she and husband Josh Rodarmel, whom she married in December 2013, start a family.

"Until I have kids, so hopefully I have kids sooner than later," Gulbis said. She added that she wants to play "at least through this year."

Gulbis turned pro at age 18 in 2001, and she is in the midst of her 15th season on the LPGA Tour.
