Retirements

Soccer

Several notable soccer players have announced their retirement following the Olympics, but specific names and details were not highlighted in recent reports.

Tennis

Andy Murray has announced his retirement from professional tennis after competing in the Paris 2024 Olympics. Murray, a three-time Grand Slam champion and two-time Olympic gold medalist, has decided to retire due to ongoing injuries.

My Thoughts

  • AI does not get it quite right with real-life sporting events πŸ˜…
  • Congrats Novak for Golden Slam. I think this is it for Nadal in singles. Novak still has it and will keep trying till he loses more in early rounds or convincingly against the top.
  • On the soccer side, not as exciting since it's mostly under 23 and without key players. France seems to have a strong team to win it.
