Having just won a Wimbledon title, Marion Bartoli took fans and spectators by surprise when she announced her plan to retire immediately.

The tennis pro has been suffering from an injured left foot, right ankle, right hamstring and right Achilles tendon. She stated that during her game on Wednesday, every part of her body hurt and that was the reason for her sudden retirement.

I have pain everywhere after 45 minutes or an hour of play,” she stated tearfully. “I’ve been doing this for so long. And yeah, it’s just body-wise, I can’t do it anymore.” She admitted that despite being in terrible pain, she pushed through it for Wimbledon and earned herself a title at the championship games earlier this year. However, she’s now tired of being in pain and called her triumph at Wimbledon “the last little bit of something that was left inside me.”
