Camila Giorgi’s unexpected retirement from tennis has taken a puzzling turn amid allegations of tax evasion. Italian media reports she fled Italy for the U.S. to avoid prosecution over discrepancies in her tax filings. Authorities are also investigating her family members.
Giorgi confirmed her retirement on Instagram but gave no explanation. She expressed gratitude to fans and promised to share updates on her future plans soon. Meanwhile, she has cut ties with the Women’s Tennis Association and the Italian Tennis Federation.
Reports suggest Giorgi is shifting her focus to modeling. With a strong social media presence, she has recently shared lingerie and swimsuit photos and previously worked as a model. This new career direction seems to mark a major change from professional tennis.
At 32, Giorgi reached a career-high singles ranking of No. 26 and last played at the Miami Open in March. Despite her recent loss to Iga Swiatek, her tennis legacy remains notable as she steps away from the sport under unusual circumstances.
