France's Marion Bartoli announces retirement from tennis

A tearful Marion Bartoli said she was in too much pain to continue playing.

Bartoli wins first Wimbledon title France's top female tennis player and
the current Wimbledon women's champion, Marion Bartoli, has said she is
retiring from professional tennis.

Bartoli, 28, ranked seventh in the world, shocked journalists at a
tournament in Cincinnati, Ohio, by tearfully announcing she was quitting.

Beset by injuries, she said her hips, Achilles tendon, shoulder and lower
back hurt continuously when she played.

She had earlier been knocked out of the competition by Romania's Simona Halep.

"My body was really starting to fall apart and I was able to keep it
together, go through the pain - with a lot of pain - throughout this
Wimbledon and make it happen," she said at the Western & Southern Open.

"I have pain everywhere after 45 minutes or an hour of play. I've been
doing this for so long. Body-wise, I can't do it any more."

Bartoli won her first Grand Slam title by beating Germany's Sabine Lisicki
in the Wimbledon final.

She was the runner-up at Wimbledon in 2007.

"You know, everyone will remember my Wimbledon title. No-one will
remember the last match I played here," she said.

"It's been a tough decision to take. I don't take this easily."
