During her career Anne has won 20 International Tennis Federation singles titles, eight ITF doubles titles and reached seven WTA semi-finals.
“I have given my decision a lot of thought and I believe this is the right time to move on to the next stage of my career. I have had some magical moments along the way and I would like to thank my family for their unwavering support and encouragement, the LTA for their fantastic backing, my coach Jeremy Bates and also Nigel Sears who have both been very influential in my tennis career and of course, the great tennis fans in Britain and all over the world.
“I think I am leaving tennis in excellent shape with
both Laura Robson and Heather Watson leading the way for Britain in the women’s
game. I am now focussing on my exciting new challenge with BT Sport where I
hope I can provide insight and analysis for tennis fans.”
Keothavong's best grand slam result was when she reached the third round of the US Open in 2008.
