Wimbledon Champion Marion Bartoli has revealed her new job of a TV pundit, after announcing her retirement from tennis last week.

According to Sport24, the 28-year-old Frenchwoman said she would work for broadcaster Eurosport at the US Open, which starts in New York next week.

Bartoli tweeted that she was very thrilled to announce her being part of the Eurosport team and will be commentating in English and French.

Bartoli beat Germany's Sabine Lisicki to win Wimbledon in July but quit the sport in tears after a second-round loss to Simona Halep in Cincinnati last week, the report said.
