Juan Martin del Potro, a tennis legend, has bid farewell to the sport in 2024. His career, though filled with glory, was marred by injuries. Del Potro expressed his happiness after retiring and thanked Novak Djokovic for coming to Argentina to play a farewell match. The two shared a great rivalry over the years, and their final match left both emotional.

Del Potro's Gratitude and Legacy

He has shown his gratitude to everyone involved in his career. On Instagram, he wrote, "Thank you all for making a farewell much more beautiful than I dreamed of." Del Potro officially retired at the age of 36, boasting 22 ATP Tour-level titles. His impact on the tennis world is undeniable, and he will be greatly missed, especially by former world number one Djokovic.

Retirement and Post-tennis Life

Now, Del Potro turns his attention to pre-season and the Australian Open. He is likely cherishing his memories from a glittering career. Whether he follows a similar route as Andy Murray into coaching remains to be seen. A partnership between Del Potro and Djokovic wouldn't be a surprise, given Murray's link-up with the Serbian came as a shock.
