Lost 😩 my last singles
Lost 😩 my last doubles
Lost 😩 my last team event
Lost 😩 my voice during the week
Lost 😩 my job
But still, my retirement could not have been more peRFect and I’m so happy with how everything went.
So don’t overthink that perfect ending, yours will always be amazing in your own way…”
