Strycova mulls one last Wimbledon before retiring

Barbora Strycova said Friday she was pondering the doubles title defence at Wimbledon before retiring from the sport, a move she has lately been suggesting.

"I'd love to play at Wimbledon again, it's the greatest tournament for me and if I get another chance to play there I'll be super happy," the 33-year-old world doubles number one told reporters in Prague.

The energetic Czech made the Wimbledon semi-finals in singles last year, her best singles result ever at a grand slam, and took the doubles honours together with Taiwan's Hsieh Su-wei.

"I'm in full training for the beginning of the season, we're flying to Australia on December 31," Strycova said.

"I love the country, particularly because it's warm down there and I know the people there, this will be my 17th time in Australia. So I'm looking forward to it."
