The current baby break should not mean the end of Angelique Kerber’s career.
“Absolutely not. I will try to get fit again as soon as possible and return to the Tour, but without rushing anything,” Kerber said in an interview with Porsche Newsroom. “And then I also want to attack again. If I do something, I’ll do it right,” said the 34-year-old tennis player.
The three-time Grand Slam tournament winner, who is expecting her first child in the spring, also already has a big goal: the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris. “I would definitely like to play there. I’ve already played in London and Rio de Janeiro, and it’s something very special to play for your country at such a world-shaking event,” said Kerber.
