This is the third time that Clijsters has retired from professional tennis. She walked away from the game just two years after her US Open win in 2005.
After winning a pair of Australia Open titles, Clijsters left the WTA Tour in 2012.
Clijsters has three children with her husband, Brian Lynch. She’ll now have the chance to spend a strong portion of her free time with her family.
