Nicole Vaidisova has definitely retired! The former world No.7 and two-time Grand Slam semifinalist broke the news on Instagram, saying that the decision is heartbreaking, but inevitable, due to recurring injuries.
The Czech first quit tennis at the young age of 20 in 2010 and it was a big disappointment to tennis fans, as she had both the game and the looks to make it big on the court and in off-court ventures. However, she distanced herself from the public eye and married fellow tennis player Radek Stepanek, 11 years her senior, famous for having been engaged to Martina Hingis.
