Simona Halep, the former world No. 1 tennis player from Romania, announced her retirement from professional tennis in February 2025 at age 33.Her decision followed a challenging period marked by a doping suspension and recurring injuries.In 2022, Halep tested positive for the banned substance Roxadustat at the U.S. Open.The Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) reduced her initial four-year ban to nine months, acknowledging that the contamination likely resulted from a supplement.Despite the reduction, Halep faced criticism from peers like Caroline Wozniacki, who questioned the fairness of granting wildcards to players returning from doping suspensions.Halep's retirement marks the end of a distinguished career, including two Grand Slam titles and a Wimbledon victory over Serena Williams in 2019
