Former top 20 player Agnes Szavay may decide to retire this week. The 24 year-old has been having back trouble for the past five years and apparently the surgery she is faced with undergoing is risky.

Szavay, who cracked the top 20 in 2007, may just choose to shut it down and not push her back anymore. She is currently ranked outside of the top 1000 and only managed to play four tournament last year, all of which resulted in first round losses.
