Former British number one Laura Robson says she is "not sure" where a third hip surgery leaves her tennis career.
In December, the 27-year-old practised for the first time in a year but said another operation was "unavoidable" because of "so much pain".
"More than anything, my goal is to have a happy, pain-free life," said the 2008 Wimbledon junior champion, who has not played competitively since April 2019.
Robson first had hip surgery in June 2018 and then again in December 2019.
"Following the advice of the surgeon and other doctors, a decision has been made to prioritise the long-term health of my hip," she said in an Instagram post, announcing the news on her 27th birthday.
