After a long period of silence, Italian tennis star Camila Giorgio suddenly announced her retirement and left her home country amid rumors and speculation. The former Wimbledon quarter-finalist has become the focus of attention of the Italian tax office because of tax issues.
Camila George, the name is not unfamiliar to tennis lovers. She has attracted a lot of attention because of her high appearance, and she has won the love of many fans on the tennis court with her unique style of play and distinctive personality. A series of recent events have put the 32-year-old athlete in the spotlight.
Earlier this week, a message on the website of the International Tennis Integrity Agency caused a stir: Camila George was marked for "retired" status. This left her fans in disbelief and began to speculate about the reason behind it. The WTA Tour has also said they have been unable to get in touch with George.
While people were talking, George posted a post on social platforms confirming the news of his retirement. She wrote: "I am delighted to officially announce my retirement and I am very grateful for your love and support over the years. She also mentioned that there are a lot of inaccurate rumors about her future plans, and she looks forward to sharing more exciting opportunities in the future.
The matter did not end there, as the newspaper Sport later reported that Giorgio had fled to the United States with her family and that she was wanted by the Italian financial police. This news makes the whole incident even more confusing. Giorgio and her family reportedly had multiple "holes" on their tax returns, leading to her now being investigated by the Italian National Tax Service.
In George's career, her achievements are remarkable. She competed in all four Grand Slam tournaments, with her highest result reaching the quarterfinals at Wimbledon six years ago. The highest singles ranking is 26th in the world, and she reached the quarterfinals of the Tokyo Olympics three years ago. In March, she competed at the Miami Open, but ultimately lost to world No. 1 Iga Swiatek.
In addition to his achievements on the tennis court, George is also influential on social media. She often shares her photos on Instagram, attracting the attention of 734,000 followers. Her move also makes people speculate whether she is transforming into a social media model.
George's retirement and departure brought great shock and regret to her fans. But in any case, we should respect her choice, thank her for her contribution to the sport of tennis, and wish her all the best in her future endeavors.
