se retira la tenista chilena más exitosa de este siglo y ya tiene un nuevo trabajo: “no se asusten de llamarme”

.

Alexa Guarachi sorprendió a todos al anunciar su retiro del tenis profesional. La ex 11° del mundo en dobles, nacida en Estados Unidos y nacionalizada chilena en 2015, cierra así una brillante carrera en la especialidad, que la ubica como la tenista chilena más exitosa de este siglo.

Con 33 años, Guarachi logró ser finalista de Roland Garros en 2020, cuartos de final en Wimbledon y semifinales del US Open. Además obtuvo una medalla de oro junto a Nicolás Jarry en los Panamericanos de Lima 2019, y estuvo muy cerca de ir a los Juegos Olímpicos de Tokio.

La ahora ex tenista no tardó en dar a conocer su próximo paso. “Soy la nueva directora de tenis y pickleball en Watersound Club. Nací y me críe en el área y soy una jugadora de tenis retirada”, se presentó en un video en redes sociales, junto a sus mayores logros.

“He jugado contra gente que probablemente conoces si sigues el tenis. He jugado contra Serena Williams, Andy Murray, Aryna Sabalenka y Ons Jabeur solo para mencionar algunas. Aquí en Camp Creek haré de directora, así que estaré a cargo de muchos eventos diferentes. También estaré tratando de hacer clínicas y ayudar al crecimiento de la comunidad de tenis y pickeball aquí. Si están interesados en cualquier clínica o incluso en clases conmigo, por favor, no se asusten de llamarme”, agregó.

Guarachi se encontraba sin competir desde septiembre del 2023, cuando fue parte del Guadalajara Open. Luego estuvo presente en Santiago 2023, sin embargo, fue eliminada en dobles junto a Fernanda Labraña. Ahí cerró una notable carrera que empezó una década antes en la Universidad de Alabama y donde fue la cuarta mejor rankeada de Estados Unidos.
