She has her GS trophys and doing it by taking out Serena at FO and Venus at WC. You did an amazing job and no one can take that away from you. I will forever miss seeing those amazing dimples and amazing smile of yours. And your quirky tik tok videos you made before tik tok became what it is. God bless and Happy Retirement Garbine Mugu.
I am shocked, but not surprised. I wish her happiness in the next chapter of her life and hope that she will comeback from retirement.
How can you be shocked yet not surprised?
@@robovac3557lol
@@robovac3557exactly 😂
Exactly… You can be surprised but not shocked, but not the other way around
Not surprised. Her heart wasn't in it in the end. But I'm grateful for what she gave us, and wish her well for the future.
Not many can say they won multiple grand slams and became world number 1. Well done Garbine 👏
Serena Loved her and so did Venus! ❤️ …She’s a lovely lady! We will miss you Garbine! 😢
Such a humble and beautiful human being ❤️
She's one of my all-time faves so I'm sad abouy this but I also know that she hasn't been happy in the last couple of years. Still the only player to win against Serena and Venus in GS finals. Best of luck to her. Wish her all the best.
It was a joy to watch you win your two GS titles.
She's been great for the sport. Lovely person as well
Hall of Fame career for sure. I enjoyed watching her play. At her best she was awesome. Congrats on a great career Garbi!
Best wishes for you in all future endeavors, Garbine. You were a terrific player for many years and conducted yourself w/ respect, professionalism, and true sportsmanship.
I mean we all thought she was already retired. This is just formality. Congrats on an amazing career
Beautiful in every way ❤
I am neither shocked or surprised. She seems not to be happy for sometime when she was on court. Took on other ventures and just went away.
Love watching her play. Hope she enjoys retirement❤
She could no longer handle the pressure and discipline of being a top player. Beautiful girl with a gorgeous smile. Good luck to her
She definitely earned her world no. 1 ranking and GS by defeating 2 legends. Mugu quickly realized everyone was coming for her as new #1 and I don’t think she developed much of a defensive game or plan b. All the players and coaches studied her game and picked it apart quite easily
Good Luck Mugu. I'll never forget how you and a few others beat Serena and stopped her march to history. You were a great player and always were stylish with your racer back outfits. Live your life in prosperity and good health.
Happy retirement to her. She achieved a lot and is now living the life she chooses.
Shocked but also not surprised. I hope she enjoys her retirement.
How can you also be shocked but not surprised?
@@janparchanski9242 Maybe he or she meant that as a fan it's a disappointment that Garbiñe retires ?
@@janparchanski9242 I agree because those words reflect very similar reactions or expressions. Better words would have been 'sad' or 'unfortunate' but 'we saw it coming' or 'not surprised.'
A big fan and I watched nearly all her matches. In 2020 and 2021 you could tell she was driven to regain her form. I believe to prove to herself as much as everyone else her heart of a champion. In 2021 she won 3 tournaments and then the magical run at the WTA finals, rising to #3 in the world. She achieved her comeback goals and I think that's why 2022 was what it was. She had nothing left to prove. Wish her all the best.
A lovely champion,Good luck for the future.
The game moves fast w new players coming up all the time. Always liked Mugu, seemed classy and had a graceful game. Best wishes.
She did the right thing, she achieved didn’t have to prove anything.
She's dealt with intermittent good form and results for years, since around 2018. Bad one year and then back to good form the next. She won the WTA World Tour Finals and ended at #3 in 2021. in fact that is the last tournament she ever won, and frankly, she won only 12 matches all through 2022 and early 2023 when she played her final tournament. But she also had a fair number of injuries that likely contributed to her inconsistent form. All of that said, she was a really good player when she was at her peak, which sadly was between 20-24. Big serve, big forehand and was much better at the net that people like to give her credit for. But she didn't look happy on court since she won the world tour finals at the end of 2021. It's almost like she used up whatever motivation she had left to get that last big title and after that, she felt like she had accomplished everything she wanted to. I could be wrong. It's possible that injuries still plagued her and that, not tennis is what sapped her of the drive to continue.
What a ride. Ups and downs like life, yet reached the top of the mountain beating both Williams sister's in finals. What a memory to hang your hat on. Cheers, GM.
Fantastic achievement , a great tennis player and nice person. If anybody thinks it’s easy to achieve what she did , think again . Tennis , at that level, is extremely tough.
I miss her already. Absolute class act.
Grandísima tenista. Preciosa mujer. Gracias por tu tenis. Seguidor fiel hasta el final.
My goodness, I missed her all year and will miss her from here on. Her retirement hurts me as it hurt me when Anett Kontaveit retired: I love them both. We love you, Garbine, and hope all the best for you.
Not many people can have won the Wimbledon and RG in successive years, congrats, her life is set financially. I hope she goes on her next journey with just as much success
She was great yet very inconsistant. Definitely not a hall of famer but she will be remembered for sure.
How? 2 majors and world number 1. She wont be an automatic choice like Serena but she will definitely be considered often and most likely get in.
She's a sure bet. I think every retired 2 time GS champion is in the HOF. and to add World #1 and Year End Champion it's a no brainer.
No sabes nada de tenis
2 GS, more than 500 wins on the pro tour...come on, you must be joking
Elle a beaucoup accompli malgré un bref parcours...bravo! ❤
❤Garbi
Always enjoyed watching her play. Like Kvitova or Dementieva, Mauresmo or Sabatini, she could be up and down but when she was up, she was a giant killer. A worthy GS champion and fun to watch. We aren't so lucky as to say that about everyone and we need that variety...
What a stunning career. I guess she's fulfilled with her family life. She can always return if she wants to.
Can return, but no way will she be able to compete with the top players. Look at Azeranka, Venus, Angie Kerber, Carolin W, and a few others who may have had children , and wanted out , only to return years later but not win major tournaments. Her love for the game was gone. Got the money and that was the story.
Kim Clijsters? @@nt4081
Gran tenista...Gran persona...te deseo lo mejor!!!👏👏👏
I respect and appreciate the way champions like Muguruza, Barty, Federer retired - short and sweet. 💖
Damnnn never was a big fan But great career and hope she finds some peace in retirement ❤️
all the best to the next chapter of life Muguruza!
Hard not to be a fan of hers. Hall of Famer for sure. She seems to be one of those talented players who achieved satisfaction by winning 2 majors and becoming #1, slowly lost motivation and decided to pursue life outside of tennis. Nothing wrong with that or her awesome career. How players like Serena, Venus, Djokovic and Nadal still have that fire burning is amazing.
Class act Garbine Muguruza.
Well done , there is a lot of things to do out of proffesional sport. Just enjoy it
Tennis used to agitate her, she could not handle losses too well, especially to lower ranked opponents. She's one of the players that saw tennis as a strenuous job, rather than an enjoyable lifestyle.
Going miss the Amazon. What a Specimen.
I'm shocked and surprised. It seems like yesterday when Garbine and Bouchard were considered top upcoming superstars! And I remember when she destroyed Serena 6:2 6:2 I knew she was gonna win a gs one day.
I've seen her on some Spanish TV recently and hope she has some desire to jump into hosting or broadcasting because she's a natural.
As a tennis fan, I always wanted more big matches and more big wins from Garbiñe. She had a fantastic career nonetheless. My feeling is she won't come back, but who knows. All best to her.
Who knows 2-3 years later, she would be announcing a comeback to tennis like Henin, Clijsters, Wozniacki and the likes
Totally unsurprised. She made a ton of money,and won slams - she was clearly tired of the grind. Good for her.
The sexiest tennis player in the world
Pure Drive.
nice video
Despite all of her achievements, we will always remember her for the shades she threw at that awful Mladenovic "I heard she speaks like 25 languages, so..." Coincidentally, it was the beginning of the end of Mladenovic's singles career, what a curse
Love fever!
it happens. Pro sports is tough , lots of players have bodies that just can't take it , has nothing to do with desire. actually that might be a hindrance, trying to come back too soon.- I'll name 2 . former ( 1990 era ) NFL. NY Jet QB. C. Pennington. current - WTA player , Czech K. Muchova who is actually my fave current player to watch, can't stay on the court - I think I read wrist surgery, out until 2025 , the current issue. aside: Dom thiem had wrist surgery I think ( not sayin the same ) and isn't really recovering.
HER AFFAIR WITH CONCHITA ,. DROWNED HER.
It was not with Conchita! I believe it went down hill when the German Physio and Mugu got very intimate. Then they got the rumored gay guy to be her boyfriend. He supposedly had another wife/ skater who came out as bi/lesbian. Seems contracts and the powers in Professional sports and their sponsors prevented that woman from being free. After so many years of pretending and when no longer under scrutiny and contracts they reveal the truth. He did a video back in 2016-2017 i believe explaining how he met Kiira. He is an ex Tom Ford executive and a trained PR guy . Think his marriage was a lavender one to his former wife or just a fake marriage. He is a great looking guy , but I think he could get a better looking woman if he wanted.
@@nt4081Come on, Mugu likes D, she’s always been feminine
Legend🫡
I think she is still young for retirement, maybe around 28 years old. She could play 3 years more.
she is 30.
feel badly that she didn't have more high end wins. sort of an unfulfilled talent. injuries, tough competition. pro sports is tough.
Get married, have kids, make a comeback... #carolinewozniacki😎
Hall of Fame? Seriously! I don’t think so. The only way she makes Hall of Fame is if they run out of candidates. Her career is like a roller coaster. 😮
nope. 500 + wins on the WTA pro tour and 2 GS. There are a lot of players in the HoF with less titles than her.
HOF? 🤔
10 titles including 2 majors, #1 ranking...no doubt.
Michael Chang is in the Tennis HOF with one major and was never ranked number 1. The bar for the Tennis HOF is not set very high.
Her armor was too strong…I don’t think her attitude was at the level of her talent. Winning Wimbledon & Roland Garros proved that when she let go, she could be a champion. I thought she was going to win minimum 8 grand slams.
Tennis is a slog, living out of suitcase tournament to tournament she can do a lot with her time and money. Best wishes 🥂
Never been a great player, same as Barty.
