Australian Ash Barty, the world’s top-ranked women’s tennis player, made the surprise announcement Wednesday that she’s retiring at age 25, less than two months after winning the Australian Open for her third Grand Slam title.

Barty said in a video posted on Instagram, “I don’t have the physical drive, the emotional want and everything it takes to challenge yourself at the very top level any more.”
