Camila Giorgi re-emerges in tennis with an unexpected new role after retirement
Former Italian tennis star Camila Giorgi has surprised fans once again, unveiling a new chapter in her life less than a year after retiring from professional tennis. While her initial post-retirement move pointed toward a career in lingerie modeling in the United States, Giorgi has now returned to the tennis scene in a very different capacity.
The 33-year-old played her final official match in March 2024, shortly after announcing her retirement. She ended her career with a peak WTA ranking of No. 26. In the months that followed, Giorgi made headlines after sharing modeling photos on social media, reinforcing speculation that fashion would be her next focus.
However, Giorgi has since relocated to Argentina, where she was spotted at the ATP Buenos Aires tournament—not as a player, but as a reporter. Taking on a media role, she conducted interviews for the tournament’s official channels, speaking with players such as Sebastián Báez and Guido Pella.
Giorgi later posted images from the event on Instagram, confirming her behind-the-microphone role. While it remains unclear whether this was a one-off appearance or the start of a new career path, her natural ease and rapport with players suggested she could be well-suited to sports media, offering her a way to stay closely connected to tennis.
The former Wimbledon quarterfinalist moved to Argentina with her boyfriend, Ramiro Marra, and appears to have found a quieter life after a turbulent period marked by legal controversies. Giorgi previously faced allegations of tax evasion, which prompted her move to the United States, and was also accused by a former landlord in Italy of unpaid rent—claims that drew significant attention during the final phase of her career.
