Anett Kontaveit will play one final event before her retirement match in her native Estonia, and it will be in Luxembourg.
Kontaveit effectively retired from the sport earlier this year at Wimbledon , but the Estonian will formally retire in November in her native Estonia by playing her good friend Ons Jabeur . Before that match, though, the Estonian will take part in the Luxembourg Invitation tennis event, which only features retired players.
It's a nice exhibition event for retired players to swing the racquet a bit, reminding fans of their best days. The event generally features 8 former players, and this year, we'll see Kontaviet among them as well. The players that will compete this year outside of Kontaveit are Kim Clijsters, Lucie Safarova, Daniela Hantuchova, Monica Puig, Pauline Parmentier, and Mandy Minella.
The tournament will begin on October 19th and will finish on October 22nd. There is some solid money to be won,...
