Retirements
The following is a list of notable players (winners of a main tour title, and/or part of the ATP Rankings top 100 in singles, or top 100 in doubles, for at least one week) who announced their retirement from professional tennis, became inactive (after not playing for more than 52 weeks), or were permanently banned from playing, during the 2021 season:
Jürgen Melzer (born 22 May 1981 in Deutsch-Wagram, Austria) joined the professional tour in 1999 and reached a career-high ranking of No. 8 in singles in April 2011 and No. 6 in doubles in November 2010. He won five titles in singles and reached the semifinals of the 2010 French Open. In doubles, he won 17 titles, including the 2010 Wimbledon Championships and the 2011 US Open. Melzer retired from singles in October 2018 and has only played doubles competitions on the ATP Tour since then. In October 2020, he announced that the 2021 Australian Open would be his last professional tournament.[4]
